| Summary: | Disturbing the ecosystem balance of urban rivers not only disrupts river flows, but its unfavorable environmental impacts are reflected in the city's long-term lives and will continue for generations. One of the major impacts on river ecosystems is water scarcity and drought. Zayandehrud River is one of the most important permanent rivers in Iran, which has suffered from shortages of water and seasonal droughts during the past years. Zayandehrud catchment area in the central region of Iran is one of the areas with tension. Increasing water usage and drought have caused this area to be under continuous water stress and in contemporary years, many environmental damages have been brought to this region and the country. To be It seems that sustainable landscape design, in accordance with the ecological characteristics of the river, is an effective solution. It can help preserve the landscape of the rivers as a dynamic and sustainable ecosystem. Achieving sustainability components in riverside landscape design accordance ecological design, can meet the needs of tomorrow. In addition, it can help for providing the ecological requirements of today's generations and for the river life improvement. In this study the analytical-descriptive has used and Information, gathering method is library studies and field observations. To investigate the factors and layers which has affecting on the ecological design of the river and also for providing a model for identifying the potential of the place (using the "AHP" process) to design a suitable landscape in this river under drought conditions. The results of this paper include some strategies for designing the ecological landscape of the Zayandehrud River, which indicates the importance of safety and security factors, permeability, infrastructure, signs and vegetation in design. |
