  • Urban form, socio-climatic drivers, and air pollution dynamics

    Open Access•Sedighe Abdollahi, Hossein Moradi et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Urban Management•2026

    Using a Generalized Additive Model (GAM) framework and satellite-derived pollutant measurements, this research studies the contribution of socio-climatic parameters and urban form to air pollution in 32 Iranian cities to explain linear and nonlinear associations. After retrieving high-resolution satellite-based air quality data from Tropospheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) aboard Sentinel-5, they were integrated with different indicators, e.g…

  • Modeling spatial patterns of urban-rural landscape using landscape metrics and ecological quality index

    Open Access•Mahdieh Abolhasani, Ali Lotfi et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Urban Management•2026

    Quantifying spatial landscape patterns along urban-rural gradients is crucial for understanding urbanization's impacts on ecosystem structure and function. This study presents an integrated framework assessing land use patterns and ecological quality in the Greater Isfahan region, Iran. A novel direction-specific Ecological Quality Index (EQI) for green cover is introduced to describe spatial patterns of urban expansion and associated ecological …

  • An Integrated Geospatial Decision Framework for Micro‐Scale Air and Noise Pollution Hazard Mapping

    Open Access•Loghman Khodakarami, Ali Reza Soffianian et al.•ARTICLE•Sustainable Development•2026

    Urban air and noise pollution represent critical challenges for sustainable city management, especially in rapidly industrializing regions. Traditional monitoring systems often fail to capture the fine‐scale spatial heterogeneity that determines actual exposure levels. This research develops an integrated geospatial decision framework that combines Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) and Multi‐Criteria Decision‐Making (MCDM) methods to map a…

  • Using a system dynamics approach to achieve synergy between tourism and conservation

    Fatemeh Khazaee Fadafan, Alireza Soffianian et al.•ARTICLE•Tourism Recreation Research•2026•References: 44

    This paper developed a system dynamics model for achieving synergy between conservation and tourism at a mountainous landscape in Fereydounshahr, Iran. The model consisted of four subsystems, including: conservation, tourism, local people and economics. It utilized a comprehensive approach of tourism modelling, in contrast with traditional ones that rely only on historical data. For the first time, different types of visitors and their needs were…

  • Multivariate analysis of dynamic correlations between urban form and air pollution

    Open Access•Sedighe Abdollahi, Hossein Moradi et al.•ARTICLE•Sustainable Cities and Society•2025

  • Urban sustainability assessment at the neighborhood scale

    Open Access•Loghman Khodakarami, Saeid Pourmanafi et al.•ARTICLE•Sustainable Cities and Society•2023

  • Enhancing ecotourism site suitability assessment using multi-criteria evaluation and NSGA-II

    Open Access•Rojin Akbari, Saeid Pourmanafi et al.•ARTICLE•Environment Development and…•2023

  • Assessing ecotourism in a mountainous landscape using GIS – MCDA approaches

    Open Access•Fatemeh Khazaee Fadafan, Alireza Soffianian et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Geography•2022

  • The fate of rangelands

    Open Access•Bibizahra Mazloum, Saeid Pourmanafi et al.•ARTICLE•Land Degradation and Development•2021

    Land serves as a vital production resource, and therefore land planning plays an important role in sustainable land‐use design. Iran includes large areas of the world's drylands, many of which are used as rangelands, and where the population has increased by 60% from 1985 to 2016. Further population increase in Iran would probably require more land resources to be allocated for human needs. However, the pace and patterns of these changes remain u…

  • Human and Climate Effects on the Hamoun Wetlands

    Open Access•Saeideh Maleki, Saeid Soltani Koupaei et al.•ARTICLE•Weather, Climate, and Society•2019

    Negative impacts of climate change on ecosystems have been increasing, and both the intensification and the mitigation of these impacts are strongly linked with human activities. Management and reduction of human-induced disturbances on ecosystems can mitigate the effects of climate change and enhance the ecosystem recovery process. Here, we investigate coupled human and climate effects on the wetland ecosystem of the lower Helmand basin from 197…

  • The study of thermal pattern changes using Landsat-derived land surface temperature in the central part of Isfahan province

    Open Access•Maliheh Madanian, Ali Reza Soffianian et al.•ARTICLE•Sustainable Cities and Society•2018

  • Evaluating the spatial effectiveness of alternative urban growth scenarios in protecting cropland resources

    Open Access•Ali Asgarian, Alireza Soffianian et al.•ARTICLE•Sustainable Cities and Society•2018
