Abstract
Crises are the main reflection of life mismanagement. Therefore, what is important in the occurrence of accidents is resilience of a place that can improve the continuity of the region's environment and provide stability and dynamism in times of crisis. This research aims to calculate the level of spatial resilience in the face of fire in Region 19 of Tehran. This is an applied research and the sampling method is random. The weights of the factors were calculated using Expert Choice software and the inconsistency rate was less than 0.1. The validity of the questionnaire was calculated through the CVR index for the items in the form of a Likert scale and its estimated value was 0.49. The reliability of the questionnaire was calculated by Cronbach's alpha coefficient and SPSS20 software and its value was 0.82. The data were standardized using the hierarchical evaluation model and ArcGIS10.6 software. The model was designed using the VensimPLx32 system. Findings achieved by examining 3 criteria and 12 spatial indexes that identify the main features of resilience in Region 19 showed that Physical Resilience, Operational Resilience, and Infrastructural Resilience were prioritized respectively as the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd priorities with the importance factors of 0.12, 0.58 and 0.28. The results obtained from the spatial resilience zoning map show that 21.67% of the area (2,812,993 m2) has low resilience, and 43.79% of the area (5,682,805 m2) has medium resilience and 16.59% of the area (21,536,913 m2) has high resilience.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology (IJEST) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of environmental science and technology, innovation, engineering and management.
A broad outline of the journal''s scope includes: peer reviewed original research articles, case and technical reports, reviews and analyses papers, short communications and notes to the editor, in interdisciplinary information on the practice and status of research in environmental science and technology, both natural and man made.
The main aspects of research areas include, but are not exclusive to; environmental chemistry and biology, environments pollution control and abatement technology, transport and fate of pollutants in the environment, concentrations and dispersion of wastes in air, water, and soil, point and non-point sources pollution, heavy metals and organic compounds in the environment, atmospheric pollutants and trace gases, solid and hazardous waste management; soil biodegradation and bioremediation of contaminated sites; environmental impact assessment, industrial ecology, ecological and human risk assessment; improved energy management and auditing efficiency and environmental standards and criteria.
