Introduction: The most important public and creative spaces of the city are pedestrian or pedestrian highways that have the highest social role, with full pedestrian dominance, which can form an alley, a market, a market, a path to a square, a park, or the space of a complex, and Be a base for citizens to spend their leisure time. In the context of a spirit-based approach to the central context of the cities, the municipality of Rasht created a walkway in the center of the city. The walkway in the center of the city and its easy access to it has created the right atmosphere for citizens to interact and interact. The formation of such an environment requires the necessary indicators and criteria to attract citizens. Investigating the criteria and indicators affecting this environment and active participation of citizens in improving the quality of this environment and other similar environments is necessary. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the factors affecting the quality of Rasht cultural pedestrian space from the users' point of view.

Abstract Prediction and evaluation of meteorological data in effect of climate change is very important especially in water resources management. LARS is a model that generates weather data and predicts weather parameters by downscaling global circulation models (GCM). In this study, in order to evaluate 15 GCM models performance in simulating the minimum and maximum temperature, radiation and precipitation in Rasht synoptic station (2011-2012), statistical downscaling of each model was performed by LARS model. Then, the mentioned data were predicted on the basis selected GCM models for 2013-2042 and 2043-2072 periods. The results showed that the highest increase in annual average of minimum and maximum temperature will occur during the 2043-2072 periods with 1.3 and 2.0 °C, under A2 scenario, respectively. The amounts of radiation will decrease in future periods for all seasons. The highest decrease (143.4 MJ m-2) of radiation will occur in 2013-2042periods in winter under A2 scenario. The seasonal precipitation will often increase in future periods. The highest increase of seasonal precipitation (55.5 mm) will occur under B1 scenario in 2043-2072 periods for autumn.

Commission Act-Five was established on early 1970s as a legal reference for flexible implementation of master and detailed plans in Iran. Based on this bylaw, all changes in urban land uses within the city boundaries should be approved through decisions made by this Commission. This paper tries to evaluate the role of Commission Act-Five’s decisions in the City of Rasht on urban lands over a ten-year period from 1997 to 2006. The main data utilized in this study was based on the documents obtained from the secretariat of the Commission Act-Five in Rasht. For data analysis a number of statistical methods such as correlation, the mean and percentage changes have been applied. The main findings of the study include the following: The number of applications for land use changes in Rasht has considerably been increased over the study period. Among different activities, the residential and commercial uses have had the biggest gains, but, lands related to public services such as green space, education and sport uses have faced the highest levels of reductions. The number of construction and residential unit permits issued by municipality was highly correlated with the number of applications and volume of urban land use change in the City of Rasht.
