Determination Environmental Sensitivity of Geomorphologic Aspects of the Coastal Area in Hormozgan
We used 6 criteria and 29 indicators for determination environmental sensitivity of geomorphologic aspects of the coastal area in Hormozgan. Identification and determination of the important coefficient showed exclusivity and wilderness are the most important coefficients and industrial dependency had the lowest priority for determination of the environmental sensitivity in this regard. Moreover, in order to, determine importance and priority of sensitivity of ecosystems in the study area 9 physical structure were studied in both shore and coastal zone (include: 4 structure in coastal area and 5 structure in shore area). According to the results, Inundated mudflat and in shore area and Low flat land in coastal area are of the most important sensitivity .After reviewing the physical structure and preparation map of overlaying this structure, sensitivity zoning was developed coastline in Hormozgan province on 5 class of sensitivity, Very low sensitivity, low sensitivity, moderate sensitivity, high sensitivity and very high sensitivity. Zoning of sensitive physical structure in coastal zone shows the lowest extent areas are in Low sensitive degree and the most extent areas are in moderate sensitive degree in physical sensitivity classes. According to the results, shore area in Hormozgan province that includes 11.35% of coastal zone has high physical sensitivity. In shore area Inundated Mudflat, Rocky shore and Inundate beach have most physical sensitivity and inundated process is the most important phenomena on the structures mentioned the shores. The most sensitive of coastal area is Low flat land.

Summary: | We used 6 criteria and 29 indicators for determination environmental sensitivity of geomorphologic
aspects of the coastal area in Hormozgan. Identification and determination of the important coefficient
showed exclusivity and wilderness are the most important coefficients and industrial dependency had
the lowest priority for determination of the environmental sensitivity in this regard.
Moreover, in order to, determine importance and priority of sensitivity of ecosystems in the study area
9 physical structure were studied in both shore and coastal zone (include: 4 structure in coastal area
and 5 structure in shore area). According to the results, Inundated mudflat and in shore area and Low
flat land in coastal area are of the most important sensitivity .After reviewing the physical structure
and preparation map of overlaying this structure, sensitivity zoning was developed coastline in
Hormozgan province on 5 class of sensitivity, Very low sensitivity, low sensitivity, moderate
sensitivity, high sensitivity and very high sensitivity. Zoning of sensitive physical structure in coastal
zone shows the lowest extent areas are in Low sensitive degree and the most extent areas are in
moderate sensitive degree in physical sensitivity classes.
According to the results, shore area in Hormozgan province that includes 11.35% of coastal zone has
high physical sensitivity. In shore area Inundated Mudflat, Rocky shore and Inundate beach have most
physical sensitivity and inundated process is the most important phenomena on the structures
mentioned the shores. The most sensitive of coastal area is Low flat land. |
