Aims
Geography is the science of exploring the earth's system with all its landscapes, people, places, and environments. In geographical studies, the attempt is made to understand the dynamics of human and natural environments and, on the basis of this understanding, to predict which human and natural elements would be affected when a change is made in one of the system's elements and which factors the authorities should focus on to contain the turbulent changes in the system and stabilize it. In this regard, the journal of Geography and Environmental Sustainability (GES) aims:
• to provide the decision-makers and planners with information about the positive and negative consequences of economic, political, and cultural decisions on damages to the environment and the consequences of these damages on people's lives and welfare.
• to enhance the communities' and the authorities' knowledge and intellectual skills in order to address growing concerns about the relationships between society and the environment.
• to encourage scholars and researchers to discuss various methods and techniques of exploring environmental dynamics such as field studies, area estimation techniques, and techniques for the analysis and interpretation of cartographic and GIS data.
• to provide the authorities, planners, and decision-makers with the required information about the agendas, obstacles, and methods of natural resource management and energy consumption.
Scope
• Discovering the capacity of the regions for sustainable development and forecasting the imbalances ensuing development plan.
• Estimating environmental capacities for population adoption and planning for settlement proportional to population growth.
• Manipulating environmental systems and predicting their short and long-term effects.
• Investigating the geo-morphological and ecological consequences of the expansion of urban environments.
• Examining the signs of instability such as changes in the baseline, desertification, soil erosion, climate change, etc.
