It also can be considered as an element which provides some attractions for tourists and thereby can increase the number of tourists and satisfaction. All climate elements are involved in the health, comfort, entertainment and tourist attraction, but some elements such as temperature, relative humidity, sunshine and wind are more important which were studied in this article to indicate the effect of thermal comfort in Tourism attraction in the cities of the Sabalan hillside, which due to their geographical position can be considered as a valuable potential for the development of tourism. This research was a descriptive – analytic one and data collection was done through a library method. In this study, the data and climatic data were collected during the period of 1981-2010 to study the tourism potentials in the Sabalan region. Tourism climate index TCI (Mieczkowski) was used to analyze the data, this index shows climate Tourism for each month of the year in the form of numerical and descriptive index. The results showed that the months of June, July, August and September due to providing best welfare conditions for tourism were the ideal ones. The months of January, February, March, April, November and December had low importance and were in acceptable level but were not so good for tourists. The months of May and October had average conditions for tourism activities. Overall, the best months of the year, June and September and worst months were December, January and February for tourism activities in the cities of the Sabalan hillside.

Until now many researchers used different models such as integrated and distributed models, and also artificial intelligent methods to estimate basin runoff. For this purpose in this study for estimation the runoff of Bara-Ariye basin with an area of 112 km2 and average annual rainfall of 306.72mm, two different models namely WetSpa and artificial neural network (ANN) were used. To run of the WetSpa model two categories of information, including raster maps and metrological data and for ANN model only meteorological data were used. The 5 years data were used to simulation runoff of Bara-Ariye basin. The statistical parameters such as correlation coefficient (R2), the square of the standard error of the mean (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE) were used for comparison results of two models. The results indicated that the WetSpa model with R2 and RMSE equal to 0.920 and 0.346 m3/s and also ANN model with R2 and RMSE equal to 0.959 and 0.310 m3/s have the ability to simulate runoff of Bara Ariye River. Also using neural network model reduced the error estimation of watershed runoff 11.6% compared with the WetSpa model. Accurate estimation of watershed runoff has a crucial role in its management.

For analysis of climatic impacts of the Lake in Northwestern Iran the synoptic data in 5 station in the west and east of the lake were used. For simulation of the impacts of Urmia Lake in mean temperature and precipitation in surrounding areas the Regional Climate Model (RegCM4) and TAPM model and two time series years include 2003 and 2006 have been used. Then by using the models outputs and observed data performance, the models have been calibrated. For modeling the impacts of the Urmia Lake in climatic elements in surrounding areas, two scenarios were considered. First: Existence of the lake at it’s the maximum extent; two: Aquatic body of Urmia lake removed and substituted by an area having coverage of gravel and sand with a texture of loam and also desert. The results of this study indicate that the RegCM model has a good performance than TAPM in simulation of temperature and precipitation in the North West of Iran. By changing the Lake landuse, precipitation of the region will decrease which in spring is more than other seasons. Another impact of landuse change in northwest of Iran is change in mean temperature. This parameter in cold period of year will decrease and in warm period will increase.

The regime of mountainous winds has major effects on the air conditions in mountain regions. This research had been done using hourly data of wind speed and wind direction and also analysis and fitness of topography conditions with theoretical fundamental of research. So it was observed that Masouleh station is one of the best mountains stations in the subject of mountains climatology. Suitable location of this station in the middle slope caused to affected region by upslope wind and down slope wind (katabatic and anabatic winds). Location of Deylaman station on southern slopes of Alborz Mountains had important effect on wind speed decreasing. Wind occurrence mechanism is Mountain wind type along vallay in Deylaman station. Secondary dominant wind was north-northwest thus daily and seasonal behaviors of wind and location of Caspian Sea and Alborz Mountain represent affecting the region by sea-land breeze system. Jirandeh station’s behavior is as an exclusive mountainous station that indicated deep combination but imperceptible influence of the mountain on atmospheric phenomena in Mountains range. Position of station on southern slope provided appropriate conditions to form slope wind occurrence in this region. However stretching of Totkabon- siahrood valley as a wide valley that is branching of sefidrood valley provided appropriate conditions to influx sea-breeze wind. This condition caused destruction of local mountain wind effects during day and night.
