Introduction Estimation of the rivers sediment load has high complexity due to effecting different parameters in this aspect. Regarding the power relationship between discharge data and suspended sediment load use of sediment rating curves is one of the most common methods for determining the sediment yield in ungauged watersheds. Sediment condition shows the upstream characters and using of the obtained data makes a relation between erosion and sediment load. The different parameters such as climate, land use, data accuracy and the applied methods have the effect on the sediment rating curve shape. Agriculture activities such as tillage in the direction of slope lead to accelerated erosion in the watersheds, especially in the Mediterranean area. These decades many studies assessing the effects of climate changes in the future period and it affects on runoff. In this study, the main objective is to obtain sediment changes during the future decade (2011-2030) using the curve rating in sediment estimating. For this purpose, the IHACRES hydrologic model and the LARS_WG climate model were used. Material and Methode The IHACRES model for seven hydrometric stations was calibrated and validated. This model is a rainfall and runoff erosion that require a little data for running including minimum and maximum temperature, rainfall, discharge and study are. This model defined as a lumped model and highly common in watersheds with scarce data. With running this model in all of the models the model parameters were calibrated. Also, the LARS_WG model was used for determining the weather changes that are occurring in the Samian watershed. This watershed has near to 4 thousand square kilometers that have many sub-watersheds. In this study, the watersheds in the west of the Samian watershed were selected for modeling. The average of rainfall in this area is between 220 and 457 mm, and the weather temperature changes in this region are high and that is between -32 to 34 C°. The results of LARS_WG showed the weather changes in each part of the hydrological model inputs that these changes were applied to the IHACRES model and the discharge flow rate was estimated for the future. On the other hand, using the observed discharge and sediment yield were calculated the sediment curve rate. By changes in flow discharge at the study stations, were calculated the suspended sediment discharges for the future period. results and discussion The results of the LARS_WG model showed that the amount of precipitation decreased to 3.68 percent and the minimum and the maximum temperature increased by 16.48 and 5.39 percent, respectively. Decreasing of the input precipitation in most part of the world particularly in Iran watersheds mentioned in many studies. One of the other the most important effect of the climate change in this area is minimum and maximum temperature increase that leads to evapotranspiration increasing and soil moisture loss. The results of the IHACRES model showed that this model has the suitable capability for simulation runoff in the study area, therefore, it was used for estimating the future runoff regarding climate changes. The model output showed that during the next decades the average flow rate in the hydrometric stations will decrease by a total of 16 percent and the number of peak flood events will increase, that the highest increase between the study watersheds observed in the Yamchi hydrometric station with a mean of 2.09 m3s-1 and 16 peak events with over 6 m3s-1. Using the obtained results of the climatic model, hydrological model and the sediment rating curve the suspend sediment changes were estimated for the future period. The result shows that these climatic changes will lead to a 47 percent reduction in the average of suspended sediment load at study stations. Conclusion The consequences of the climate changes have the significant effect on water resources quality and quantity. The aims of this study were calculating the weather changes and it's ruling on discharge and sediment yield changed. the results of this study indicate the effect of climate change on the Ardabil province watersheds is remarkable. Considering the environmental impacts of climate change and dependence on human life on the environment it is necessary to implement an appropriate approach for decent management in Watersheds.

Coastal areas of groundwater reserves are of great importance for the management and proper planning in these areas, it is necessary to assessment the state of the aquifers. In this study were study the interaction of fresh and salt water levels in Nur subsections. In this section study was selected the coastal line with a length of 3000 m. The distance between the points of study in the 500 lengths of shoreline is 50 meters, then 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 meter respectively. To determine the interaction of fresh and salt water were used from equation Verruijt, geophysical, electromagnetic devices and observational data. To the implementation of Verruijt equation necessary parameters were prepared, and interface between freshwater and saltwater were determined using this relationship in May and August. Also geo electric studies using the Mazandaran Regional Water Company information and exploratory wells were investigated. In order to provide information about interaction of fresh and salt water using electromagnetic devices were conducted interface sampling in point studies and the values were recorded. In the study sections to compare the results of studies were used observational data. The results showed that electromagnetic device is very accurate in compared to other methods of study and with use of this device can be determined interfere between fresh and salt water with high confidence.

Determine appropriate areas for optimum use of the flood is one of the most important factors determining the success of watershed management plans that collected rainwater, with the intent varies. That the main objective is optimization and operational management of rain water based on demand and consumption. SamborChay watershed area with 74,830 hectares in the arid and semi-dry wines in Iran in Ardabil province is located. In order to determine suitable areas for harvesting runoff was used geographic information system GIS. For this purpose the use of concept maps suitable areas for water extraction based on the source level variable water volume obtained through AHP model was developed. After weighting to determine the parameters intensity rainfall in 30 minutes with 10 years return period, intensity rainfall in one hours with 2 years return period, average rainfall, NDVI, average slope, capacity infiltration, formation geology, and temperature their effect was assessment after appropriate and inappropriate areas were identified for harvesting runoff. The results indicate that sub basin at the northern of the area have a high potential for Production runoff with peak flow 7 to 21 (m3/s), concentration time 120 minutes, average temperature 13 C°, negative NDVI, high runoff 7 centimeters.
