Geology Consideration Influential in Urban Development and Vulnerability of the Gorgan Region (NE Iran)
Abstract Investigation of the outcomes of natural disasters considering the regional situation of paramount importance, because of many of the requirements and necessities will be distinguished in advance and direct the trend of urban development in order to face the least possible risk in cause of critical situations. Gorgan is a ancient city in north east of Iran, although this region is located the distance from coastal ground of Caspian sea, but the many of region for urban development to place on grain size sediments and result geotectonic investigation show the much thickness of soils and sediment of grounds are kinds of SM, ML, CL group. Considering the potentiality to generate earthquake and ground water situation can to result. There are related phenomenon earth movement, landslide and liquefaction. Loess sediments of Gorgan are the mayor deposit that covered in the most of area and geotechnic characteristic of loess caused to become more in fluential and natural disasters. The part events for example flood, slumping on slop are the mayor parts of Gorgan, that to develop city and industrial zone. Therefore recognition of vulnerable zones, are important, and the damages resulting from floods, slides is in a close relation with the population density the amount of investment infra structural affairs and level of city and in dustrial development of loess sediment areas. Consequently preventing from erosion of soil and controlling the deposits using establishment of structures along the foothills can be taken as preventive measures. The results of the studies indicate and rate of erosion has brought about unsuitable conditions in the region. the steep un stable geological layers have accelerated the erosion for estimating earth movement geomorphologic and geotechnic factors have been taken in to account and their relation with tectonic a activities and fault scarps have been recognized and indicate movements.(too long)
