Abstract
| The continuation of drought and the simultaneous increase in dependence on underground water sources in the past decades have expanded the range of areas subject to subsidence to many different parts of the country, which results in a lot of damage.In order to reduce the damages caused by land subsidence, it is necessary to have a complete and accurate understanding of this phenomenon. In recent decades, the virtual aperture radar (SAR) interferometric technique has become a common method for measuring subsidence. In this research, field data such as piezometric wells and groundwater drop in the minimum and maximum periods and exploitation wells were used to calculate the amount of discharge in the aquifer using IDW interpolation, aiming at analyzing the time series of the subsidence of the Esfarayen plain. besides, radar data including Sentinel 1 images were used to calculate the subsidence rate in the first 8 months of 2023. The results of the research show that the amount of subsidence in the study basin was from 1 to 12 mm in a period of 8 months and 75.2% of the area of the basin was in the medium critical and very critical zone, which can be recognized based on this. He showed that the Esfrain plain is in a critical state.The most water extraction and subsidence has been related to to south of Sankhasat, south of Kharasha, south of Arg, south of Gazan, Jafarabad Kharaba and Mehdiabad of Kal Beko wells, which are located in the very critical area and require efficient management of groundwater resources in order to control land subsidence. |

Abstract
The change in the way cities operate and benefit from ICTs, etc., has led to population dispersal, activity, and housing. This trend, along with the devastating social and environmental impacts, has had quite visible and measurable economic consequences. A comparative study would be very helpful to avoid the implications of measuring the occurrence of this process and the impact of national and local factors on it. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to compare the dispersal trend of the two cities of Esfarain and Bojnourd. In this regard, the present study is applied in terms of purpose and analytical-comparative in terms of research method. Required data were collected from documentary library studies and Heldern, Shannon entropy and Gini coefficients were used to analyze the data. The results showed that according to Helderen's model, 84% of physical growth in Esfarain between 1345 and 1345 was related to population growth and about 16% to horizontal and spherical growth. For Bojnourd, this was also about 88% of the population growth and about 12% of the horizontal and spiral growth, which is slightly different from that of Esfarain. The Shannon entropy model also shows the sparse growth of physical expansion in the two cities of Esfarain and Bojnourd. The Gini coefficient calculated for Esfarain city is 0.096 and for Bojnourd city is 0.054 which indicates that population growth (Espalier) of Esfarain city is 0.015% more than Bojnourd city. Since the continuation of such conditions has numerous environmental, social and economic consequences for the residents of the cities concerned, it is advisable to strategically research, control and manage the physical development of the city and utilize the interpersonal development policy.
