Management and planning have different levels, of which the strategy is the highest level and has a long-term approach to resource allocation and decision making. Comprehensive watershed management is one of the reliable and accepted management approaches of the world community, which is a coordinated management of physical, biological, social and economic systems. The SWOT model is one of the strategic planning models. Due to its structural features and extensive capabilities, this model can easily be used in the management of diverse natural and human systems, including watershed management. SWOT analysis identifies threats and opportunities in the external environment of a system and to recognize internal weaknesses and strengths of that system. The correct identification of the problems in the field is also one of the most important steps in implementing this approach. The SWOT model can be used in comprehensive watershed management due to strategic planning because of its flexibility and ability to understand cause and effect relationships.

In the present study, the effect of sand extraction from the bed and bank of Khatirkuh river in Mazandaran province on social, ecological and environmental issues was investigated using a questionnaire and field visits, experts and local people. Then, by determining the sample size using the Cochran relation and evaluating the reliability and reliability of the questionnaires by Cronbach's alpha method and finally its validity was confirmed by experts and professors. Then 70 questionnaires were distributed between local communities and experts and using the SWOT matrix of external and internal factors, strategies for the effects of sand extraction in the region were identified. The results showed that the total secondary coefficient of strengths and weaknesses were 1.938 and 1.076, respectively, and the total secondary coefficient of opportunities and threats were 2.307 and 1.907, Respectively. According to the SO and WT factors for development planning in the region, offensive strategy is a priority. The above strategy maximize  opportunities and strengths and thereby reducing mining problems.The most important ecological factor of this region is the entry of invasive plants, forest and pasture fires, which have reduced growth, vegetation density and pasture destruction. The most important strength of  mining in this region is direct  and indirect employment related to sand and gravel mines.

Inadequate productivity and over-capacity of land in many watersheds and plains of the country, has increased flooding potential. Therefore, reducing flood damage with the participation of both policymakers and the public as key stakeholders in decision-making, planning, long-term management and foresight in decisions are unavoidable. In the present study, SWOT analytical method was used to reduce flood potential and reduce flood risks in Hamedan- Bahar plain of Hamedan province in Siminehroud basin. To this end, the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats to the method of precipitation, and the relative and final value of each of the SWOT evaluation matrix factors were assessed to determine the strategy for reducing the consequences of flood hazards. The final value of the matrix of all SWOT factors was 4.47, which indicates that strengths outweigh weaknesses. Also, the final value of external and internal factors was obtained as 2.51 and 1.96, respectively, which indicates that there are more opportunities than threats. These conditions indicate the establishment of a conservative strategy (WO) in the Hamadan-Bahar plain and the use of existing opportunities to reduce weaknesses. Finally, the two strategies of monitoring the construction of river banks and applying expert opinions in the implementation of land management laws along rivers and catchments with a weight of 0.761 ranked first in reducing the flood potential of the plain and reducing flood hazards.

Evaluation of watershed management projects today is one of the most fundamental issues being addressed in countries for future planning in the field of natural resource management projects. The results of evaluating watershed projects by presenting a strategy and strategy should reduce future problems and costs. In this study, hierarchical analysis method and SWOT analytical model were used to evaluate and present the strategy. In this study 4 main criteria (reduction of erosion, flood reduction, increase of vegetation covers and increase of sewage discharge) and 8 sub-criteria were used. Then the final weight of each criterion and sub-criteria were determined using Expert choice software. The results showed that erosion reduction criterion with relative importance of 0.482 had the most impact on watershed projects. SWOT model results in the region indicated that the region's conditions were in the fourth quarter, WT or defensive strategy. To this end, strategies for mitigating threats and addressing regional weaknesses were presented using the region's potentials and opportunities, and prioritized using expert opinions. 8 strategies were identified and evaluated based on the potential of the area and the evaluation of implemented projects. The best management strategies to build coastal walls around the gardens in collaboration with locals with a final score of 0.28 were the first priority and a strategy to improve and increase the height of the dam overflow. Constructed with 0.02 points was the last priority.

Tourism development in places that have the potential to attract tourists could be employed as an effective tool for comprehensive growth and development of communities.Fars province is considered as one of the important tourism centers in Iran in terms ofhaving numerous natural, historical, and cultural potentials, among which desert regions could be mentioned. This research was aimed to evaluate the desert tourism attractions of Shiraz Desert and determine the strategies for sustainable tourism development using SWOT. In this regard, initially, the capabilities and limitations of the study area were identified and after consultation with experts, questionnaires were developed and given to the tourists in the region and natural resources experts. Then, the results of questionnaires were analyzed using SWOT and statistical tests in SPSS software. According to the obtained results, growth and development strategy is recommended for development of desert ecotourism.
