Education, training, and upbringing are highly complex processes. As a result, multiple factors and elements are involved in its formation. The physical environment is one of the important elements in desirable education. By providing a suitable physical environment, students will engage in learning with better mental and emotional conditions and more tranquility.In this study, the bioclimatic conditions of Ahvaz city were evaluated using climate consultant software Based on the results of these indices, a total of 12 to 15percent of the training period hours were in comfortable bioclimatic conditions. In 45 to 50percent of the study hours, the climatic conditions were warm and undesirable for students, and in 30 to 35percent of the study hours, the air temperature was below the comfort threshold. Therefore, in more than 80to 85percent of the days when students are present at school, the temperature and climatic conditions are not conducive to their learning and comfort. In this 7 to 8month period, the number of hot and cold hours is approximately equal. However, since the undesirability of cold and discomfort conditions is less than that of hot undesirable conditions, and the cost of heating is lower than the cost of cooling, it is recommended to focus the study period on cool to cold months of autumn and winter. Based on the results of the bioclimatic consultant index, from 15 to 20days in the month of Mehr and from mid-Ardibehesht month, the thermal conditions exceed the tolerance threshold of students, and their health may be at risk. It is better to remove this period from the academic calendar. However, in other months of the study period, by considering appropriate strategies in the design and construction of schools, the climatic undesirability of this period can be addressed.

Climate change affects all sectors of the economy to some extent, but the agricultural sector may be the most sensitive and vulnerable. This phenomenon can lead to increased migration and heightened conflict risks. Today migration is a challenge for all developing countries. Climate migration and the occurrence of consecutive droughts in the Khuzestan province and the city of Ahvaz are also caused by rising temperatures and lack of precipitation, among other factors The aim of this research is to assess the capabilities for reducing migration in the city of Ahvaz and develop a migration strategy. In this study the SWOT model was used and questionnaires were adjusted based on the Likert spectrum and completed and analyzed with the opinions of experts. Initially in the first stage, internal factors, namely strengths and weaknesses, were identified, and in the next stage, external factors, namely opportunities and threats, were identified and weighted. Among the external factors, threats with a weight of )0.460)and among the internal factors, weaknesses with a weight of )0.440) had the highest weights assigned to them. The results showed that the strategic migration strategy for the city of Ahvaz is close to a minimum-minimum or defensive strategy. The main message of this article emphasizes the use of defensive and reduction strategies.This means that in this area weaknesses should be reduced and threats should be avoided. These weaknesses and threats are the basis for migration and hinder the sustainable development of Ahvaz.
 

According to the published reports of Ahvaz municipality, this metropolis has more than 13 slum neighborhoods with a population of about 350 thousand people. Despite the relative improvement of the conditions of these areas in the past decades, many residents of these areas still do not have suitable jobs and have faced difficulties in meeting some of their basic needs, and the help of individuals or charitable organizations has not been able to help them. Please solve this problem. The purpose of the current research is to examine the obstacles to the activities of charities and non-governmental organizations in these areas and to provide a solution for the evolution of charitable donations. Keeping in mind the principle that the use of theoretical literature in the qualitative approach is considered in the stage after the emergence of categories grounded theory method of Glazer's approach was used to collect data and provide a solution. In this regard, by using the theoretical sampling method, the beneficiaries were selected and interviewed, and several meetings were held with 16 of these participants in order to collect data. Weakness of intra-regional social capital, institutionalized job instability, feeling of multi-dimensional poverty, unsystematic charity work, and the combination of challenges of marginalized neighborhoods are the most important emerging categories. The results show that the size, volume, and distribution of charitable donations are insufficient to help the marginalized neighborhoods of the city of Ahvaz in crisis, and comprehensive support is necessary in this field.

Knowledge is the axis of value creation in today's organizations. Knowledge management as a strategic capital of an organization is considered the most important organizational advantage. On the other hand, the importance of sharing the experiences of librarians to each other in order to perform their professional duties, shows the role of knowledge transfer and sharing methods among librarians. These days, improving the performance of the organization is a response from an organization to face the challenges that arise from the rapid global transformations. From the organization's point of view, this challenge includes responding to the needs of customers and providing goods or services with a high degree of efficiency and in an efficient and effective manner. From the perspective of organizational members, this challenge includes improving the quality of work life. So that the organization is a pleasant and satisfying place for work and effort.This paper examines the state of knowledge sharing among managers and librarians of public libraries in the city of Ahvaz. Every organization has its own culture, which is influenced by the culture of the organization's people. In this research, it has tried to measure the effect of culture on knowledge sharing in the form of components such as competition, motivation, support, cooperation, trust, etc.Research questions are:What is the culture of knowledge sharing among the employees (librarians and managers) of Ahvaz public libraries?What are the different methods of sharing knowledge among the employees (librarians and managers) of public libraries in Ahvaz?What is the status of information and communication technologies for sharing knowledge among public libraries in Ahvaz.

Literature Review:

Literature review shows that there is a positive and significant relationship between organizational culture and knowledge sharing in many studies. For example, a study by Burnette (2017) aims to explore the nature of tacit knowledge (TK) sharing among library colleagues, with a focus on the characteristics of TK and contextual factors such as organizational culture or the mentor/mentee relationship. Three thematic areas emerged. First are the influence of organizational culture and the importance of trust in knowledge sharing behavior. Second, the value of teamwork and the significance of mentor/mentee roles surface as significant drivers of TK exchange. Last but not least is a better understanding of the nature of TK, as it relates to types of knowledge and characterizations of experience and expertise.

This is an applied research and has been done by survey. The statistical population was all employees (managers and librarians) of public libraries in Ahvaz City and the implementation time was 2022. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect data, and the content validity of the questionnaire was obtained by experts' opinion and its reliability using Cronbach's alpha (0.90) and dividing it into two halves (0.85). In analyzing the questionnaire data, descriptive statistics techniques were used for demographics, and techniques such as one-sample t-test and Friedman's rank average test were used for the questionnaire's inferential questions.

In terms of the components of sharing culture, the competition between employees for sharing knowledge with the highest average (3.16) has the best status, and the managers' motivation to share knowledge with other libraries is the lowest with an average of 2.70. Also, the state of knowledge sharing in terms of different methods of knowledge sharing shows that the most favorable state is related to courses and workshops with an average of 3.55, followed by the enterprise resource planning (ERP) with 3.51, as well as the quality of personal communication and informal among librarians with an average of 3.26. The findings show the status of knowledge sharing and communication technology from the point of view of the managers and librarians of public libraries in the city. For instance, while training courses and workshops and personal and informal communication between librarians, as well as administrative automation are good, other things such as employee performance and the culture of knowledge sharing are less favorable. Cases were found where there was a lack of awareness of the importance of knowledge sharing and a lack of organizational support.

The results of the current research show that information and communication technology and then knowledge-sharing methods are in a more suitable situation than the categories of employee behavior and knowledge-sharing culture. According to the findings regarding the knowledge-sharing methods, where Friedman's test was used, the highest average rating was given to the method of sharing and exchanging knowledge from courses and workshops with an average rating of 9.63 with a deviation of 0.78. The next ranks were administrative automation system with an average rank of 9.43 and personal and informal communication between librarians with an average rank of 8.46. Finally, the knowledge management system with an average rating of 5.36, publications and bulletins with an average rating of 5.30, and public libraries with an average rating of 4.67, have the lowest average, which should be used by examining the problem of the degree of its solution.Overall, this study shows there is a need to improve information technology and the culture of knowledge sharing.

The issue of poverty is not only one of the most important issues in the world but also one of the most important internal issues and problems of all societies, both rich and poor. In such a situation, the direction of the physical development of the city (its shape) is somehow affected by the phenomenon of urban poverty. Meanwhile, having a comprehensive study on the effects of poverty on urban morphology seems necessary. For this purpose, the current study was compiled to investigate and measure the impact of poverty on urban morphology in the Ahvaz metropolis. This research is applied-theoretical in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of nature and method. In the current research, considering the nature of the hypotheses and the type of variables, the methods available in descriptive statistics such as absolute frequency distribution tables and mean, were used to examine and compare the information collected through the questionnaire, and in the inferential statistics section, the structural equation method (SEM) was used. Finally, SPSS and EQS software were used to analyze and apply these tests. The findings of this study show that the most influential and meaningful research indicators are related to the dimensions of legal problems with a mean of (3.74), geographical isolation and the number of involved decision-making institutions with a mean of (3.62). Each of them has had the greatest impact on the variable under study. In the next stage, economic activities with (3.04) and employment with (3.07), have had the least impact on the studied variable. The results of the structural equations indicate that there is a significant relationship between the components of urban poverty and the components of the physical-spatial structure of urban morphology; Therefore, carrying out the necessary measures, requires serious attention and a quick and logical plan of managers and urban and regional planners.

A significant part of the population of all countries of the world includes physically-motor disabled people. Paying attention to the issue of the disabled and the necessity of culture building and respect for human dignity in this field, this group of people in the society, like other people, need to meet their needs in the urban environment. This research was conducted with the aim of evaluating the obstacles and limitations of the presence of physically-motor disabled people in the urban spaces of Ahvaz. According to the nature of the subject and the goals for which it is planned, it is descriptive and analytical type and belongs to applied research. Research method, library method, field method, statistical population of 53946 disabled people; In order to select the sample size, Cochran's formula was used, according to which the sample size was 380 people. In order to analyze the data, first through the spss software, the desired indicators will be used to test the hypotheses from the T test, for the final evaluation of the model (DEMATEL). The findings obtained from the DEMATEL technique showed that among the indicators, the permeability and accessibility index have the most interaction, and the buildings index has the least interaction, and the permeability and accessibility index are the most influential factors, and the urban furniture index is the most influential factor. Conclusion that by using T test in the first hypothesis the average of all indicators was equal to 3/93 and in the second hypothesis the average was 4/13.

The VIKOR technique results indicated that solar energy ranked highest in terms of ineffectiveness in addressing energy challenges in Ahvaz with a score of 1 followed by wind energy at 0.758 and water energy at 0.2220. Geothermal energy and biomass ranked lowest, respectively. Furthermore, the integration results demonstrated a varying degree of interdependence between non-factor indicators and energy development challenges contingent upon the type of renewable energy.

The global economy is witnessing an increase in the level of competition between companies and countries and consequently cities. Therefore, the future of countries and cities is directly dependent on the degree of their competitiveness in economic indicators, especially competitiveness. In this regard, in today's competitive world where cities are trying to outdo each other in various fields, urban tourism, branding and marketing for tourism purposes has also become an arena for cities to compete. The brand of a city in tourism is the winning edge of a city in economic and social competition and a strategic tool to increase the competitiveness, credibility, power and influence of cities. Therefore, in society today, creating and maintaining an urban brand and in this context, positive imagery and reputation promotion along with emotional attraction to travel to the desired city, is one of the basic points considered by city managers and is a topic in which success It can bring prosperity, prosperity and prosperity to the inhabitants while keeping the cities alive. Therefore, it is in this context that The variables of fame and emotional attraction of traveling to a place and proportional promotion of the position of these two variables are among the most important factors in effective branding and creating an attractive image of the destination for the purpose of tourism development and attracting tourists and consequently gaining capital. according to this, The present article examines the relationship between fame and emotional appeal of traveling to the metropolis of Ahvaz and also determines the position of this city in corresponding of these two variables in comparison with other metropolises of the country.

This research is in the field of behavioral geography. The research method is descriptive-analytical and applied in terms of purpose. In doing so, statistical analysis of Kendall Tao and Spearman correlation and location reputation matrix and SPSS and Excel software have been used. While the, to confirm the use of the two non-parametric tests mentioned above and to measure the significance of the variables in this framework, the Kalmogorov-Smirnov statistical test was used. The data collection tool was a researcher-made electronic questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale, the validity of which was confirmed by professors and its reliability was confirmed by using Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 79%. The statistical population of the study consists of people who have never traveled to the metropolis of Ahvaz; In this regard, by combining cluster snowball sampling methods and supervised network, 627 questionnaires were received.

Based on the research findings, finally, this study identified the position of place reputation in relation to emotional attraction in four main groups; And provided solutions in accordance with the position obtained. According to the research findings, there is a positive relationship between the fame of Ahvaz metropolis and the emotional attraction of traveling to this city, and the current situation of this city is in a quarter of losers and is not appropriate. The order of extreme heat, dust, destruction and war, deprivation, sewage and bad smell, urban chaos and traffic, lack of infrastructure, lack of security, cultural problems and ethnicity and dirty city are the most important imagine that have caused this situation in the city. This situation and such imagins, which are deeply rooted in the facts, have been the result of policies and, in other words, the dominant view in the body of the metropolis of Ahvaz from management at all levels to the citizens of this city; Also, on a macro-scale national scale we must overcome the Dominance of the centralist view, the success of the central and peripheral landscape, the historical emphasis on the oil-based mono-product economy, and the mere exploitative view of oil-rich provinces, Lack of environmental priority and sustainable development, Lack of a grand brand strategy national, regional and so on.

In the context of the principles of behavioral geography related to branding, the destination image can be considered as a set of knowledge, feelings, ideas, expectations and feelings that people have about a place. The destination image is a multidimensional structure that has three basic cognitive, emotional, and motivational dimensions. The cognitive dimension includes a person's knowledge and beliefs about the physical characteristics of the destination. The emotional dimension involves evaluating the quality of one's emotions in relation to physical characteristics and the environment. The motivational dimension is considered corresponding to the behavior and originates from the cognitive and emotional dimensions. Based on the above analysis, by promoting the environment within the framework of a branding macro strategy, and alongside and thereby, increasing cognition; And at a higher level, believing people and putting pressure on it, can increase the positive reputation and then, increase the emotional appeal of traveling to this city and ultimately increase the motivation and attract more tourists and thus increase the competitive capacity. And attracted more capital in this metropolis compared to other metropolises in the country; The result will be the attraction of capital and the achievement of sustainable development, according to the majority of urban planning experts. Finally, based on the findings of research, discussion and conclusions, solutions were presented in three areas: scientific domain, metropolitan area and macro area of branding.

Responsiveness is a main component of the health system which is related to the social characteristics of the society. The aim of this study was to evaluate the responsiveness of the health system in the slum areas of Ahvaz.

In this cross-sectional study, 385 residents of the marginal areas of Ahvaz city were selected by multi-stage sampling method Data were collected using Socio demographic-checklist and WHO responsiveness questionnaire. Data were analyzed in SPSS V22 applying descriptive statistics tests, Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, ANOVA and t-test. 

The age range of the participants was 18 to 97 years with an average of (42.84±16.56). Women constituted 66% of the research population. 76% were married, 26% were illiterate and 4.4% had university education. 85.7 percent of participants under 5 million people. 66.2% used government service providers. 80% had health insurance and 15.1%  had supplementary insurance. Performance of in-patient services was better than outpatient services in terms of responsiveness. Aspect “Choice” received low score for outpatient and inpatient services. Almost 13% of respondents perceived some sort of discrimination while receiving inpatient service. Responsiveness of the participants in this study was significant relationship in all aspects with the type of service provider (charity/private/government), in the aspect of communication with the type of service provision (outpatient/inpatient), in the aspect of informed choice and confidentiality with the having supplementary insurance.  

Paying attention to the quality of facilities, access to social support and choice is suggested as a criterion with points for planning for change in order to improve the responsiveness of the health system in marginalized areas.

In the new era, people's values and attitudes change drastically under the influence of globalization processes. In the Iranian society, in the last few decades, the rate of change of values, beliefs and behaviors has changed fundamentally under the influence of new innovations, so that it can be said that the Iranian society is also experiencing some cultural elements and components of the postmodernism society, and also some damages. It affects some structures of society. This research investigated 380 youths of Ahvaz city in the form of cluster sampling in an experimental and survey way. The results of the research showed that there is a significant relationship between the dimensions of cultural globalization and cultural postmodernism, that is, with the increase of positive attitude towards the process of globalization, the influence of the cultural components of the postmodern society in the society also increases. Also, the results showed that 19% of the variance of the cultural postmodernism variable was explained by the two dimensions of transnational norms and cultural globalization.

The aim of this investigation was to assess and constructing of physical fitness norm for men and women aged 18-60 in Ahvaz city. 682 subjects (women =365 and men =317) of Ahvaz city with an average height of 160.9 ±6.6 and 175 ± 8.8 (cm) and weight of 69.14 ±14.1 and 78.9± 12.5 (kg) voluntarily participated in the present study. Research variables included anthropometric, body composition and physical fitness. The results indicated that the weight of women was 69.0 ±14.1 (kg) less than men 78.9 ±12.5 (kg). WHR in women and men were 0.82 ± 0.07 and 0.87 ±0.06, respectively. The fat percent in women and men were 38.2 ± 5.1 and 19.1±7.1, respectively. women and men in cardiovascular fitness 37.1 ±10.2 and 44.1 ± 6.7 (ml/kg/min), shoulder girdle endurance 22.2±11.5 and 41.4±16.4, abdominal muscle endurance 24.0±12.4 and 37.4±10.7, hand grip 47.4 ±11.7 and 45.3 ± 17.7 and trunk flexibility 32.5±7.8 and 29.8±7.2 (cm) were in good condition. In all age groups, weight, cardiovascular fitness, shoulder girdle endurance and abdominal muscle endurance in women were lower than men While fat percent and flexibility in women was higher than men. In addition, WHR and hand grip strength in women, with the exception of the age group of 30-39 years, were lower and higher than men, respectively. In compared to the existing norms the result determined most women and men in Ahvaz, despite good physical fitness, in body of fat percentage are at high and moderate risk of obesity-related diseases, respectively.

Considering the reduction of fossil fuels and the increase of carbon dioxide caused by these fuels, the transition to renewable and low-carbon energies is inevitable. In this regard, the high capacity of Ahvaz city in the direction of the development of various types of renewable energy can be achieved, which not only reduces energy consumption and costs, but also leads to a cleaner and more stable environment. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to write a scenario for the development of renewable energies in Ahvaz metropolis. The current research is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of method, survey and descriptive-analytical. The necessary information was collected in the form of documents, library and field (questionnaire and interview). The statistical community of the current research is made up of experts in the fields of city and energy. The sampling method in this research is stratified sampling proportional to the volume. Also, the method of analysis was quantitative, which used scenario writing wizard. The results show that the total score of compatible scenarios or in other words the impact of all scenarios is 126, the results of which show the importance of the scenarios of solar energy development for energy supply, development of solar energy within industries, development of solar panels at the level of offices and organizations. The development of solar panels in residential areas is the most compatible and the scenario of continuing the use of fossil fuels for energy production and the development and establishment of nuclear power plants in the region are the least compatible for the development in the city of Ahvaz.

Right to the city is one of the most important citizenship rights that can be reduced for women under different circumstances. In this mixed research, with in-depth and semi-structured interviews, a conceptual model has been presented to explain the causal, contextual and interventional conditions effectively reducing women's right to the city. Then, with the structural equation modeling, the causal conditions affecting the right to the city have been investigated. Family, ethnicity, and physical and mental conditions were the most important background conditions that 32 women living in Ahvaz pointed to in order to influence the right to the city. Also, the participants considered politics and government institutions, law, and spatial policies as the most important intervention in the women's right to the city. City security, favorable actions with the city space, space-positive gender performance, and social welfare were among the most important causal conditions that the participants mentioned in increasing women's right to the city. Causal modeling showed that the most influential reason for reducing women's right to the city of Ahvaz is urban space security, followed by urban policies and designs. By multiplying the causal path, it is 0.84, followed by urban planning and design with a coefficient of 0.79. Governmental and executive institutions should pay more attention to women's right to the city through the establishment of better laws, the design of suitable spaces with individual differences, especially gender, and, of course, with an emphasis on women. The creation of safer places in the city for women while increasing the livability of the city for citizens improves women's rights in urban spaces

Rapid, irregular, and scattered urban development is the source of many urban problems. Understanding these issues demands a deep understanding of the distribution of the urban spatial structure. The urban mass is the occupied part of the city, whose accurate knowledge, helps the optimal urban management and can be a guidance light for the use of urban spaces in the future. For this purpose and with the aim of accurate and quick identification of the Ahvaz urban mass as the study area, the images taken by the NPP-VIIRS sensor at night are assumed as the base of this research. Moreover, the other factors such as improved vegetation, auxiliary points containing field information, earth surface temperature and geometric mean of the image, are used to prepare three indices HSI, HSI-POI (HP) and HSI-POI-LST (HPL) used in ENVI and ArcGIS software. Then, a support vector machine was used to identify the type of land in the built area using 1000 points. Next, the threshold limit corresponding to the highest overall accuracy and the kappa coefficient of each index were calculated. The general results showed that compared to other indices, HPL shows natural and social characteristics, and the output of this method provides higher spatial accuracy, more spatial details of the built-up area, and also more choices for evaluating small-scale urban areas. Also, The highest and lowest net area of the urban mass belongs to regions 3 and 1, which includes more than 56 and 34 percent of the area of each of these regions.

Collecting, managing and analyzing the required data is a basic precondition in the field of macro and integrated urban management. Today, this operation is feasible in the form of SDI, the evaluation and identification of its implementation platforms is one of its key issues. The purpose of this study is to identify the limiting factors for the creation and establishment of urban spatial information infrastructure in Ahvaz, based on the basic fuzzy model of the readiness index. The research data was collected in a survey and then analyzed in a spatial information infrastructure readiness model. Therefore, Ahwaz urban spatial information infrastructure has been evaluated in five organizational factors, human resources, information, technology and finance, and in the form of 16 decision criteria. In the first step of the research, the required data were extracted from questionnaires completed by experts and specialists familiar with SDI and GIS, from government centers and the private sector in Ahvaz. In the next step and after data collection, the values of general indicators and five factors were calculated based on the model used in the research. The general findings of the study showed that the readiness index of Ahwaz urban spatial information infrastructure is equal to 0.47. Evaluation of the studied factors of the model showed that the organizational factor is the most important limiting factor in the development of SDI infrastructure in Ahvaz and among the criteria, the highest and lowest scores have access to location-based software and individual leadership, respectively. In total, according to the results of this study, 44% of the 16 decision-making criteria (including 7 criteria) were below the average (50%), which acted as the main limiting factor in the development of Ahwaz urban location information infrastructure. Also, based on the results of this study, it seems that in the development of urban SDI in Ahvaz, non-technical factors can be more effective as a limiting factor than technical issues.

Beng today, human bioclimatic studies are the basis of urban planning, housing, architecture and more.In all of these studies, attention is paid to the interiors and its influence on the climate of the area in question, so tat the climate in turn influences the design of the building. The research metod in this study is based on Evanz modeling and using data Fifty Years (1966-2010) is the Ahvaz Synoptic Weather Station.And human comfort or lack of comfort in this climate was investigated based on the above modeling. The results show that the city of Ahnaz enjoys very hot to cool conditions throughout the year. It is out of the climate comfort zone during the winter and summer reasons and with the onset of spring and autumn seasons in the transition from cold to heat (April) and heat to cold (November) the climate of Ahvaz is approaching human conditions. Summary, it results that approximately9months of the year during the night without the use of mechanical devices and merely considering the materials appropriate to the climate and olso consider how elements in the city of Ahvaz are comfortable condition.Beng today, human bioclimatic studies are the basis of urban planning, housing, architecture and more.In all of these studies, attention is paid to the interiors and its influence on the climate of the area in question, so tat the climate in turn influences the design of the building.

Today, the "smart growth" strategy has been proposed as a new and comprehensive pattern of urban planning in the world, in order to solve the problem of sprawl urban growth due to relentless urbanization. The metropolis of Ahvaz, which has always suffered from the consequences of such growth in recent years, can not be an exception to this pattern. Therefore, due to the importance of the subject, this study aimed to measure and rank the metropolitan regions of Ahvaz in terms of compliance with smart urban growth indicators. The type of research is applied with a descriptive-analytical method based on documentary studies and field observations. The statistical population of the study was Ahvaz metropolitan regions. As a result of documentary studies, 82 indicators were selected within the framework of 4 physical criteria - land use, socio-economic, access - transportation and environment and the data were extracted using available sources. The data were then analyzed using a combination of Shannon entropy weighting method and ELEKTRE technique. Based on the research results, there is a significant difference between Ahwaz metropolitan regions in terms of appropriateness to smart urban growth indicators; In this regard, District 5 of Ahvaz metropolis has poor conditions, so compared to other areas of the metropolis, it deserves more serious attention. Finally, based on the research findings, solutions were proposed.

Land surface temperature (LST) is one of the important parameters in the study of climate change and physical processes of the earth's surface. Rising land temperature causes the phenomenon of heat islands, which is caused by changes in land-use and land cover in urban areas and today has become a major environmental concern. Ahvaz metropolis, as the capital of Khuzestan province in southwestern Iran, has undergone many changes in land-use and land cover in recent years and has enjoyed significant population growth. In recent years, the pattern of unbalanced urban development in Ahvaz has led to the destruction of agricultural lands, vegetation and gardens around the city as one of the most important factors balancing the land surface temperature. This has led to an increase in land surface temperature and the formation of heat islands. The purpose of this study is to investigate land-use changes in Ahvaz and its effects on spatio-temporal patterns of land surface temperature and heat islands in the years 2002-2021.

First, the land-use changes were studied and then, in order to evaluate the relationship between the changes in each Land-use and the land surface temperature, the maximum temperature in each land-use was determined and then the amount of changes was investigated. Landsat 7 ETM+ (2002) and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS (2013/2020) images downloaded from the USGS. Object-oriented method was used for classification. Educational samples were implemented on the image surface and their corresponding objects were selected as educational samples for each class. The classification was done by SVM algorithm and the user maps were classified into four classes including vegetation, barren areas, constructed areas and water areas. In this study, estimating the LST was performed base on separate window Algorithm and with Landsat 7 ETM+ band 6 and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS band 11 data. In this Study, LST was estimated using Split-Window (SW) algorithm on Landsat-7 ETM+ and Landsat-8 OLI/TIRS Thermal Infrared (TIR) bands. Then the NDVI values, Vegetation Proportion and Radiated Power were obtained. Finally, The LST value was extracted based on degrees Celsius. In this study, Pearson correlation coefficient was used to investigate the relationship between LST and air temperature. RMSE values was used to compare the estimated temperature by SW algorithm and the measured temperature by Field research. Also, two indices UHII and UHIII were used to calculate the intensity of heat islands. These indices evaluate the LST using the values of vegetation in one area.

According to the results of this study, Kappa coefficients and overall accuracy were 74% and 76% for year 2002 map, 78% and 85% for year 2013 map and 88% and 93% for year 2020 map, respectively. The area of built-up and barren areas has increased and the area of vegetation and water areas has decreased. The rate of increase in land-use of the constructed areas from 2002 to 2020 was about 579.69 hectares and the decrease in vegetation cover was 3200.15 hectares. The barren areas have increased by 2521.66 hectares from 2002 to 2020. Pearson correlation coefficient between air temperature and LST values of 0.65% is obtained, which shows a positive correlation. The RMSe values in comparison with LST and measured temperature by Field research for the images of 2002, 2013 and 2020 was 1.79, 1.66 and 0.98 degrees, respectively. According to the results, the LST values in year 2002 fluctuated about 24.48-42.55, in year 2013 about 26.32-44.47 and in year 2020 about 28.13-46.65 degrees Celsius. The results of LST show an increasing trend of temperature during the period 2020-2020. After estimating the LST, the maximum temperature of each user was determined, which showed the increasing trend of temperature in all applications. The decreasing trend of vegetation has a direct effect on increasing LST in this land-use. The temperature of this land-use has increased by 6.32 degrees in 2002-2020. Over a period of 18 years, the LST in built-up areas and barren areas has increased by 4.10 and 5.26 degrees, respectively. In order to study the spatio-temporal patterns of LST and heat islands, first with NDVI index, vegetation status in each year was divided into three classes of low, medium and high vegetation and then LST values in each category were determined. According to the results, the highest temperature occurred in the floor with low vegetation. The correlation between the two variables LST and NDVI was significant and regression between them showed an inverse correlation that indicated a negative relationship between LST and vegetation. Therefore, vegetation plays an important role in reducing the intensity of the heat island. UHIII index values in the low vegetation class from 0.63 to 0.67, in the medium vegetation class from 0.57 to 0.61 and in the high vegetation class from 0.51 to 0.54 it is arrived. The highest intensity of heat islands in 2002, 2013 and 2020 were in the southern, eastern and northwestern parts of the city, respectively.

According to the research results, land-use changes in the study period have caused an increase in land surface temperature. The highest temperatures have occurred in built-up areas and barren areas; this is due to the increase in the area of built-up and barren areas. Decreased vegetation has a direct effect on increasing LST in this land-use. The NDVI, UHII, UHIII indices and LST values were used to study the spatio-temporal patterns of land surface temperature and heat islands. The results indicate high temperatures in the vegetation with low vegetation. Due to the correlation of NDVI values with land surface temperature and the intensity of heat islands, the necessity and importance of vegetation protection as a very important variable to regulate the air temperature in the city is essential.

The spatial structure of the city has an important effect on economic efficiency and the quality of the urban environment. Inefficient spatial structure, by unnecessarily increasing the distance between people and their place of activity increase the length of the city's infrastructure network maximizes operating costs and intra-city travel. Analysis of the spatial structure of the city is important for a better understanding of urban development and provides the information needed to evaluate the effectiveness of planning plans for general managers and urban planners. The purpose of this research is to analyze the spatial structure of Ahvaz city and identify functional cores. The present research is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of descriptive-analytical method. The method of data collection is library and documentary. The data include statistical blocks of 2016 and land use layer of Ahvaz city. Kernel density, spatial autocorrelation test, and central mean were used to identify functional cores. . Hot Spot Analysis and spatial autocorrelation test were used to analyze population distribution and employment. Pearson correlation was used in SPSS software to investigate the relationship between functional cores and population and employment and geographic weight regression was used to model the spatial relationship. The research results show that the distribution of population and employment is clustered. In the central and marginal areas, population density and employment are low, and in the middle areas, the density is high. In terms of the proportion of attractive tourist uses in region one (Bagh Moin, Ci metri, Abdolmajid Bazaar, Sheikh Bagh, Saebin Mandai neighborhoods) have the highest concentration and are the main core of the city and Lashkarabad, Kemplo Jenobi and Zetoon karmandi neighborhoods are sub-cores. Also, the spatial correlation between functional core and population density is relatively low.
