In recent decades, mental health is one of the basic factors in the lives of citizens in developed countries. Paying attention to the fact that a large part of citizens' time is spent in urban spaces, it is important to pay attention to the physical components that lead to improving the mental health of citizens. The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of physical components on the components of improving the mental health of citizens in the urban spaces of Tabriz. This study was conducted in terms of practical purpose and correlation method. First, research components were extracted in two categories: mental health components and physical components of urban spaces based on scientific principles, and then a questionnaire was designed to evaluate the effect of physical components on mental health. In this article, the statistical population is the citizens of Tabriz city, who use the two urban spaces of Ainali and El-Goli as the most important collective spaces. according to Cochran's formula, the sample size was determined as 384 people, the questionnaires were analyzed using Spearmon's correlation coefficient test in SPSS software. The physical components include spatial diversity, space flexibility, environmental issues, climate comfort, environmental facilities, privacy, legibility and visual beauty, and mental health including a sense of peace, personal security, mental images. Providing needs, happiness, sense of belonging and social interactions. The highest correlation belongs to the component of spatial diversity with the component of providing needs (0.478) and the lowest correlation to the component of climate comfort with the component of personal security (0.104). According to the findings of this article, the correlation between more than 90% of the physical and mental components is strong or moderate, and this result shows that the physical components have a high impact on the mental health of citizens.

Tourism is a vital industry that has a significant impact on the economic development of many cities and countries around the world. Small-scale cities can also benefit from tourism by generating income, creating job opportunities and promoting cultural exchange. Despite having many tourist attractions, Izeh has not yet fully utilized its capacities for tourism development. The tourism industry of this city is relatively undeveloped and has not received much attention from the government or the private sector. The current research is applied in terms of nature based on the new methods of futurology, analytical and exploratory science, which was carried out by using a combination of quantitative and qualitative models. The methods of data collection in this research are documentary-library and field. The statistical population of the research is 60 executive and academic experts of Izeh, who were selected using the Delphi technique and sampled by the snowball sampling method. MARCOS model was used to rank the variables in the four dimensions of tourism in Izeh. Based on the results obtained from 43 variables, investment, infrastructure, income, and employment factors have the greatest impact on the economic development of Izeh city. The degree of influence and influence of the variables, 11 influential variables, 16 variables are in the risk spectrum, 7 variables are in the influence spectrum and the rest of the variables have a low influence and influence degree.

Land subsidence as a geological and geomorphological disaster has serious negative effects in many countries and regions of the world. In this research, it was tried to use 5 images of Sentinel 1 satellite for the period of 27/02/2017 to 01/01/2021 in order to measure and calculate the land subsidence. For this purpose, the land subsidence was investigated in four time periods, and the results of these four periods show the maximum amount of subsidence in the first period of 17 cm, in the second period of 8 cm, in the third period of 5 cm, and in The last period was 12 cm. In terms of the spatial distribution of subsidence in all periods, the maximum subsidence corresponds to the western and northwestern parts of the plain. In order to measure the land subsidence potential in the Kermanshah plain, a possible subsidence map was prepared using a hierarchical analysis model. In order to do this, eight factors affecting land subsidence were used, including water level drop, land use, well density, land slope, well geological log, slope direction, soil geology, distance from the river. The final map of the risk of land subsidence shows that 50% of the area of the plain is in the area with a very high and high probability of subsidence, with the highest level of water level drop and the thickness of sediments , the high density of the number of wells and the type of agricultural use that in It is located in the western and northwestern part of the plain. Due to the fact that this part of the plain is also in the maximum range of land subsidence. Therefore, the comparison of the maximum subsidence in both mentioned methods shows the complete matching of the results.

Climate change is a key factor in most weather-related disasters worldwide. Regarding its distinctive geographical location and diverse climate, Iran has the most variable climate in the world. The present study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the MPI-ESM-LR model from the CMIP5 model series in predicting the monthly temperature of Iran under representative concentration pathway scenarios (RCPs) with the CORDEX-WAS project. In this research, for the historical period of 1980-2005, the daily air temperature data of 49 synoptic stations of the country and the MPI-ESM-LR model under the CORDEX project were used. Likewise, for the future period, from the predicted temperature data of RCP 8.5, RCP 4.5, and RCP 2.6 scenarios of the mentioned model in three periods of the near-future (2021-2050), mid-future (2051-2075) and far-future (2076-2100) was used. Validation of the model was done with three statistical indices: r, RMSE, and MBE. The results revealed that the model has a good performance. The slope of the temperature trend in station data and model data has been increasing in the historical period and the future period in RCP8.5 and RCP4.5 in all months, the temperature trend slope has been observed in every decade. In all months, the maximum anomaly of temperature under the scenarios studied in all three future periods can be seen in the northwest and western highlands. The eastern and southeastern regions of Iran have indicated minimum temperature anomalies, except in RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5, respectively, the southern coasts and the northeastern heights of the country also show minimum temperature anomalies. In the cold half of the year, the minimum area of temperature anomaly has been extended to the north-western heights and low-altitude interior regions of the country.

The sense of belonging to a place is an indicator by which one can measure the degree of distinctiveness of that place for people compared to other places. For this purpose, in the present research, an attempt has been made to investigate and analyze the sense of belonging to a place in rural areas and the factors affecting it. The current research is descriptive-analytical in nature, survey-type in execution, and field-type in terms of data collection method. The area under study is Shusef village, one of the villages of Shusef district, Nehbandan city, South Khorasan province. This village has 56 inhabited villages, of which 15 villages are the basis of the field study. After collecting data and analyzing them based on statistical tests, the findings indicate that the significance level in all three dimensions of the evaluation of the sense of place belonging is less than 0.05 and the average is higher than the median value of 3. Among these dimensions, the identity dimension has the highest average with an average of 3.89. In the variable of factors affecting the sense of place belonging, the results of the average comparison test show the significance and more than the average effect of each of the three dimensions on the sense of place. The results of the regression test show that the level of significance in all the factors affecting the sense of belonging to a place is less than 0.05, which indicates that these factors have a direct impact on the sense of belonging to a place. Among the three factors, the environmental-physical variable or place characteristics with a beta of 0.556 had the greatest impact on the sense of belonging to the place

The outputs of general circulation models (GCMs) usually have a bias compared to observational data, and some corrections must be made before using them to develop future climate scenarios. The bias correction methods are the standard statistical methods for processing the output of climate models. In this research, the effect of five bias correction methods on the projected precipitation of the GFDL-ESM4 model in the Lake Urmia basin has been evaluated. The methods used in this research include linear scaling (LS), local intensity scaling (LOCI), power transformation (PT), distribution mapping (DM) and delta change factor (DC). Statistical metrics such as the correlation coefficient, root mean square error (RMSE) and percentage bias (PBias) have been used to evaluate the accuracy of the corrected data in the period of 1990-2014 compared to the observational data and to choose the best method for correcting the data of future scenarios. research results showed that the delta change method significantly improved the raw estimates after correction; Therefore, this method was used to correct the data of scenarios SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5. In addition, the projection of the mean annual precipitation shows a decrease between 2 and 9 percent in SSP1-2.6, between 5 and 17 percent in SSP2-4.5, and between 8 and 26 percent in SSP2-8.5 compared to the observed data.

Organizing and producing space based on the principle of citizen rights is one of the basic needs in urban planning and design. Urban spaces should have the ability to provide welfare services for all classes with different abilities and weaknesses. The importance of honoring the disabled in the construction and upbringing of society shows the necessity of paying attention to the rights of citizens in the city. The current research, with survey-analytical method, seeks to analyze the theory of citizenship rights in the reproduction of the city space based on the needs of vulnerable groups in Zanjan city. Data collection was done with field and library studies. The statistical population includes 5560 people with disabilities in Zanjan city, of which 359 people were selected by Cochran sampling. Data analysis was done with variance analysis test, partial least square method with SPSS.19, Smart PLS.3 software. The findings showed that the average satisfaction of the citizenship rights index is 2.94. Based on variance analysis, there is a difference between the type of disability and citizenship rights. Because the public spaces of the city are not adapted according to the types of disabilities. The path analysis coefficient for the impact of the right to use urban space on citizenship rights is 0.802 and the impact of the right to participate is 0.824. As a result, city design based on the right to use the urban space and the right to participate strengthens the rights of citizens.

Population increase, urban sprawl and marginalization, demands entertainment, sightseeing, and the use of recreation spaces around cities. Afforestation canopy within the vicinity, in addition to the environmental benefits, can also meet part of the city dweller’s recreation needs. Therefore, the present study tries to identify the criteria and indicators for the designing of forest landscapes in the Southern Iran’s Sahara-Sindhi habitat and introduce them for ecotourism use. This research is based on reviewing previous research, questionnaires and using the Delphi method. Said questionnaires contain the following criteria: ecology, economics, social and infrastructure, that was compiled by the researchers and presented to a group of 15 respondents. Ecology’s criteria, with four sub-criteria and 25 indicators; Economics criteria, with two sub-criteria and 10 indicators; Social’s criterion with two sub-criteria and nine indicators and Infrastructure criterion with two sub-criteria and 27 indicators. Applying opinions from our panel of experts and calculating average scores, four criteria, 9 sub-criteria and 62 indicators were identified as " ecotourism-based afforestation designing for Southern Iran’s Sahara-Sindhi habitat". The results show that social, economic, ecological and infrastructural criteria are prioritized with scores of 35.1,35.0, 33.1 and 30.1, respectively. Based on the slight difference in social and economic criteria, it can be said that in designing such ecotourism destinations, local awareness, well-being, income, livelihood of local communities, efficiency of ecotourism and investment in the region are the most important aspects and should be prioritized, considering that the represented criteria all have very little difference in scores. Therefore, we could announce that all mentioned criteria are important and according to the respondents, they should be taken into consideration for afforestation designing.

Land displacement is known as one of the most obvious invisible effects of natural earthquake hazards. In the present study, the radar interferometric technique (SBAS) using the images of Sentinel 1 (2018 to 2021) was used to estimate the land subsidence, and the Landsat 8 image of 2018 was used to extract the land use classes in a part of the Sarab county. Also, the data obtained from the regional water organization has been used to investigate the condition of underground water in connection with the subsidence caused by displacement. According to the findings and survey of the land use map of the study area, the subsidence can be seen in different places and it reaches 9 cm per year around the agricultural areas and pastures. Also, in some places, the rising rate is estimated up to 12 cm. Examining the condition of aquifers shows a drop in the level of underground water in most stations, especially a sudden drop since the beginning of 2018. Considering that the direct relationship between groundwater withdrawal and subsidence has been fully proven; But after the 5.9 magnitude earthquake in November 2018, sudden changes have occurred in the subsidence of the region. Therefore, it seems that the subsidence of the region is more affected by the earthquake.

Tabriz city in East Azarbaijan province also has a high potential in terms of having natural attractions and suitable climatic conditions. In this research, in order to evaluate the suitability of a suitable ecotourism location using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and using the method (OWa) and Geographical Information System (GIS) were first examined according to the situation of the study area and the opinions of nature tourism experts and the evaluation of effective options in evaluating the spatial suitability of ecotourism development and all the options were converted into information layers and finally Using the AHP FUZZY technique with the OWA method in the GIS environment with the combination of 16 layers of information, the spatial compatibility map of the ecotourism development of the study area was prepared. Based on the results obtained from the spatial suitability map of ecotourism development in the study area, 52493.8 hectares or in other words 23.48% of the area is at a very favorable level, 50017.8 hectares or 22.38% of the study area is favorable and 1 51709/ or in other words 23/13 is at the average level. Also, the results of this research showed that the most unsuitable areas for the development of ecotourism include 24659.3 or in other words 11.03% of the entire area. The central region of Tabriz has a high potential for ecotourism. This area is in a very favorable condition in terms of research criteria. Thus, in terms of the most important criteria, i.e. distance from natural landscapes, distance from historical, religious and ancient attractions, and distance from facilities and services, due to its proximity to neighboring cities, including Tabriz itself, as the capital of the province, it has a good status compared to other parts of Tabriz city.

The aim of this study is to investigate the long-term fluctuations and trend in horizontal visibility in the northwest of Iran. For this purpose, hourly horizontal visibility data from 7 synoptic stations were used for the period of 1951-2020. The Koschmieder approach was used to calculate the extinction coefficient. Moreover, the Mann-Kendall and Rdit tests were applied to examine the trend of horizontal visibility. Also, the percentages of very good visibility (>19 km) compared with bad (<10 km) visibilities. Based on the results the annual average of horizontal visibility in northwest of Iran is ~13 km. This study showed three different fluctuation periods in the regional average of horizontal visibility: the first period (1951-1985) showed a sharp decrease in the visibility, the second period (1987-2005) was characterized by a low and stable visibility, and the third period showed a recent relative improvement. The regional average of horizontal visibility (extinction coefficient) exhibited a significant decreasing (increasing) trend of -0.167(0.0017) km per year at a confidence level of 0.01. The significant decreasing trend was confirmed in all stations except for the Ardabil station. The most severe decreasing trend was detected in Sanandaj and Zanjan stations with rates of 0.183 and 0.179 km year-1, respectively. The region-average of Rdit statistic in northwest Iran in the early 1950s was ~0.85, but it decreased to around 0.3 in the 1990s. Despite the recent improvement in horizontal visibility, reaching the reference distribution (i.e. Rdit=~0.5), the decreasing trend of horizontal visibility was still confirmed. The percentage of trend analysis of very good and bad visibility showed an increase in bad visibilities (from 5% to 25%) and a decrease in very good visibilities (from 80% to 5%), which confirms the decreasing trend in horizontal visibility. Hazy condition with 38.7% was the most influential weather phenomenon in visibility degradation.

Reduction in productivity of horticultural and agricultural products, increase in pests, reduction in quality of agricultural products, and threat to food security are the consequences of climate change. The impact of climate change on agriculture leads to an increase in risk and risk-taking in the field of agricultural activities. The results of the observational data review confirm the occurrence of climate change. The annual temperature anomaly of Bushehr province indicated an increase in the frequency of years with temperatures above the average from 1996 to 2021. According to the Pettitt's test, this increase is about 1.2 c˙. In addition, the significant increase in temperature at the 95% confidence level and Z values ≥ 2(in Mann-Kendall test) confirmed the occurrence of climate change in Bushehr province. The estimated data of the model for the future period confirm the continuation of the increasing trend of olive temperature thresholds for the period (2014-2040). The findings of the research indicated that with the increase in temperature for at least the following 20 years, the olive tree's cooling needs will not be met and the flowering season will occur in March instead of April. In the future, more areas will have an annual temperature of more than 26 °C. Therefore, in the future, the olive growing period will increase from 90 days to 150 days. With the increase in the number of days with temperatures above 40°C, the fruit burns more and the quality of olives decreases. Therefore, in addition to Asalouye and Dashtestan counties (1994-2019), Kangan, Jam, Deir and Dashti counties, the northern foothills of the province, and parts of Dilam (2017-2040) are added to the unsuitable olive areas. The favorable areas for olive cultivation will be moved to the west of the province.

The present study raised the issue of satisfaction with physical-spatial indicators of sustainability in the degree of satisfaction and loyalty of residents to the city, and the importance of sustainability indicators from the perspective of citizens and the performance of the city in their objective and subjective determination were investigated. The statistical population is the central population of Tabriz metropolis and the sample size was estimated to be 384 people. Questionnaires were analyzed using IPA and SEM methods. Considering the network analysis in the IPA method and specifying the priorities and importance and performance of the indicators, the findings were synchronized and analyzed using structural equations. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) fit indices, such as chi-square statistic (x2/FD) = 2.365, goodness of fit index (GFI = 0.961), comparative fit index (CFI = 0.972), fit index smoothed (NFI=0.936), Tucker-Lewis index (Tli=0.959), root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA=0.029), and root mean square of standardized data (SRMR=0.035) was obtained. The value of RMSEA is less than 0.1, which indicates a very good fit of the model. The results show that resident satisfaction mediates the relationship between perceived overall performance and resident loyalty; the relationship between perceived overall importance and resident loyalty is mediated by perceived overall performance and resident satisfaction, and sustainable city performance increases people's understanding of sustainable development and increases people's understanding of sustainable development and residents' loyalty to the place of residence. The result was presented in the form of strategies in five content areas (access system, physical-spatial, landscape, activity and performance organization and urban use) and three procedural areas (legal, economic and urban management).

A major cause of landslide and relevant losses and fatalities is inappropriate land management, especially in mountainous areas and valleys. In this study, risk-vulnerability superimposed model was used to investigate the probability of occurrence of fatal landslides in Tarom Watershed. The risk-vulnerability superimposed model has been formulated to evaluate the landslide risk and vulnerability. These factors include topography, geology, number of streams, rainfall, frequency of faults, land use, density of roads, population density, and construction density, which were considered and analyzed in the present model. According to the model output (i.e., risk-vulnerability map), it was figured out that the eastern and northeastern parts of Tarom Watershed are exposed to highest levels of risk and vulnerability. That is, occurrence of a fatal landslide with financial losses is more probable in these areas, as compared to other parts of the watershed. Results of the present research showed that 17%, 35%, 23%, 16%, and 9% of the entire watershed area were classified as being exposed to very low, low, moderate, high, and very high risk-vulnerability levels, respectively. Advantage and superiority of this model over other models and methodologies for landslide study is simultaneous consideration of landslide occurrence risk and vulnerability of the study area to the landslide, making it capable of determining the areas of higher probability of fatal landslides with financial losses.

Unfortunately, many of the warnings that were given regarding vandalism were ignored and now more than ever they need attention. Therefore, based on this, the aim of the research was to examine the relationship between the design of the urban environment, environmental and psychological quality of an individual with the occurrence of vandalistic behaviors. The results showed that there is a significant positive relationship between individual psychology, environmental quality and urban environment design with vandalistic behaviors (p < 0.05). These variables were able to explain 55% of the changes in vandalistic behaviors.

The rivers are the most important supplies of fresh and agricultural water in the cities and villages. The importance of chemical quality of waters is becoming increasingly important due to the increase and diversity of Anthropogenic activities in the urban and rural environments. Therefore, the current study aimed to investigate the trend of land use changes and the chemical quality of surface water in a period of twenty years in the Qaranquchai River in Hashtrud Ccounty. The Qaranquchai is one of the sub-basins of Qezel Ozen River in the northwest of the country. In this research, Land use maps for the years 2021 and 2001 were prepared and drawn using Sentinel 2 and Landsat 7 satellite images, and were examined their changes. The chemical quality data of surface water in the hydrometric stations of the Qaranquchai basin, including Mg, Ca, EC, TDS, Cl, HCO, SO4, K and Na were obtained from the Regional Water Organization of East Azarbaijan province from 2000 to 2020. Then, their changes over 20 years were analyzed using the Mann-Kendall test. The results of the analysis of land use changes showed that in 2001, the largest area of land use was pasture, while in 2021, rainfed land had the largest area in the Qaranquchai basin. In fact, during the studied years, with the increase of rainfed agricultural land from 38% to 53.1%, pasture land decreased from 60.17% to 42.3%. The results of the investigation of the changes of the chemical quality indicators of the water in the hydrometric stations in the Qarangochai river in the studied time period, showed that the trend of changes was increasing. The result of the increasing process of each of the anions and cations in the river water has caused its quality to decrease.

Fluctuations in housing prices and the cost of its services are among the most important social and economic issues. In a society where housing is heavily commercialized; Housing policies, real estate market, social environment affect housing values. District 5 of Tehran is known as the development area of Tehran due to its high growth rate. This research aims to take an effective step in identifying the preferences of consumers while estimating the qualitative demand for housing. Therefore, the aim of this research is to analyze the factors affecting housing prices using geographic weighted regression in low-rise and high-rise buildings in District 5 of Tehran. The research method is based on documentary and survey studies. The sample size was estimated using Cochran's 758 formula. then the classified probability method has been used to select the samples; The results of the findings showed that among the low-rise buildings in North Ponk neighborhoods, Program Organization, Baharan, and among the high-rise buildings in Bagh Faiz, Faraz, Naft neighborhoods, they have a higher price range than other neighborhoods. Also, the results of (GWR) showed that the variables of the infrastructure, the age and age of the building, the number of bedrooms, quality materials, the distance to the nearest green space, the width of the passage, the traffic situation and security in common and having a balcony and terrace, the distance to the nearest street main, the distance to the nearest commercial centers and the level of greenness of the street in low-rise buildings and the location of the unit on the floor, having a parking lot, the direction of the building, the distance to the nearest public transportation station, the distance to the nearest chain stores and the level of pollution in high-rise buildings They have the greatest impact on increasing property prices.

During the last three decades, indiscriminate and unprincipled exploitation of lands and changes in uses have caused different reactions of ecosystems. The metropolis of Tabriz is the capital of East Azarbaijan province, which has had an unbalanced and scattered growth during the last few decades, in such a way that the uncontrolled expansion of the city has caused The destruction of the surrounding spaces and the departure of the city from its symmetrical and standard shape. Today, uneven growth and excessive expansion of the city is considered one of the problems of Tabriz metropolis. The method of the current research is applied-analytical by collecting information during a period of 25 years, i.e. 1375-1400 decade in document-library form, field survey in the form of referring to the relevant organizations and departments and using the ecological footprint calculation method. to the main question of the research, that is; "What effects have land use changes in the metropolis of Tabriz over a period of 25 years had on the environment and ecological capacity of Tabriz?" answer and provide solutions to improve the state of land changes and the ecological capacity of the city and the proportional distribution of the population in Tabriz metropolis. Among the results obtained in the present research is that the increase in the population growth rate and as a result the excessive expansion and development of the city during these years has caused an increase in land use changes, especially the conversion of agricultural and garden uses into settlements and residential areas. has been That this amount of changes is beyond the ecological capacity of Tabriz metropolis and requires careful and disciplined management. Otherwise, with the continuation of this type of challenge, the metropolis of Tabriz will suffer significant and irreversible crises and problems in the coming years.

Introduction
Today, political ecology; It is a pluralistic thought that includes everything that was once exclusively the focus of attention. One of the most important consequences of the rapid growth of urbanization and the physical development of the country's cities in recent decades has been the disintegration of the distribution system of urban service centers, which has become the basis for the social inequality of citizens in enjoying these services.
Data and Method
The general population and housing census of 2015 and the map of Karaj metropolitan areas, statistical information on crime rate and addiction will be prepared and used from the police force organization; and the discussion of political ecology in the field of green spaces in the 1990s to 2023s will be investigated. In the field survey section, the opinions of experts will be used to determine the state of spatial justice of green space in the areas of Karaj metropolis.
Results and Discussion
Regions 8 and 11 have a high per capita population due to the small population and the large area of parks, the presence of family garden, apple garden, Fateh garden and small Iran. But other regions suffer from a severe lack of urban parks at the neighborhood to regional level, which requires proportional distribution according to the population of each region and taking into account the accepted standards in the field of per capita urban green spaces, especially parks. Parks should be done in the areas of Karaj city.
Conclusion
Another type of vegetation application is in the lands around the neighbourhood and its outskirts, which have been planted over the years by the municipality and the pastures and forestry organization. This covering has now formed the dominant natural appearance of the neighbourhood.

Tourism in the New World has been considered by decision makers as an important industry in the economic development of countries. In order to achieve this and its expansion, the issue of security is undoubtedly one of the important parameters that researchers have paid special attention to; Therefore, in the present study, the role of security in the development of foreign tourism will be investigated. The results of research studies indicate that different types of security, including financial, social security, etc., as well as how to present the image of Iran and advertising, affect the development of foreign tourism in Iran. For this reason, recognizing the role of security in the experience of tourism and marketing of government officials in order to create more security and promote it, is very important. In this study, to investigate the role of security in the development of foreign tourism, a researcher-made questionnaire with 25 indicators and a Likert scale was prepared and distributed among foreign tourists in the city of Tabriz. 70 questionnaires were completed in three weeks, of which 65 were suitable for use; The reliability and validity of the questionnaires were calculated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient and analyzed by structural equation modeling with least squares approach (PLS-SEM). The model variables of the role of security in the development of foreign tourism were extracted from the summary of previous studies. The results show that the factor of political security with a path coefficient of 0.327 has the greatest impact on the factors of development of foreign tourism.

Considering the importance of urban green spaces in increasing the city livability and competitiveness and their role in the citizens' recreation and leisure time, it is necessary to have a precise understanding of the components affecting the satisfaction of citizens. Accordingly, the aim of the present study is to explain the citizens' satisfaction from the urban green spaces in zone 6 of Tabriz metropolis. The research method is a descriptive-analytical method and it is also practical research. The statistical population includes 30 parks in the zone 6 of the Tabriz Metropolitan Municipality, of which 12 parks were purposefully selected as a sample size. The data were collected through documentary and field methods. In order to determine the level of citizens' satisfaction from the green spaces, 320 a researcher-made questionnaires were provided to the park visitors. The results of the regression test show that the service quality index has the highest impact and the safety and security index had the least impact on the satisfaction of the subjects. The average overall satisfaction with the urban green spaces of the zone 6 of the Tabriz Metropolitan Municipality was 3.25 and considering the average distance between the obtained and the standard average and from the subjects' view, these parks are in an average level in terms of the studied indicators. However, the dynamism (cultural, artistic, recreational and sports attractions) and empathy indexes of urban green spaces in zone 6 of Tabriz Metropolitan Municipality enjoyed from a satisfaction higher than the average
