Abstract :
Landslides in country mountainous domains have annual, more than 500 milliard Rials, economical damages. Geomorphologic studies at tree last decades have essential roles at appraisal of country landslides. Amplification of landuse and surface loose formations in northwest hillsides of binalud zone causes medium and minor scale landslide events. By attention to touristy attractiveness in this basin, the mass movement of hillsides will redound to environmental hazards and catastrophism. In this article we appraise the landslide hazards with Anbalagan Model and 6 environmental variables. The consequences displays that southeast regions of case study area have highly grade of landslide hazards through existence of colluvial and loose formations and essential anthropogenic elements. Increasing landuse in loose formation of Mashhad Phylite mainly as traditional agronomy and water intuition of rivers to alluvial traces and hillsides are important elements in landuse events in case study confine.
