Sedimentation is one of the most important issues in the watershed. Due to the problems caused by sediment, it is necessary to investigate the relationship between hydrogeomorphic variables affecting sediment production and suspended sediment load in the watershed. The purpose of this study is to model the relationship between suspended sediment loads with hydrogeomorphic variables of the basin and to extract geomorphic features and their relationship with sedimentation in the watershed. By simple random method, two cows and conifers, which include 8 specific sub-basins and are equipped with hydrometric stations, were selected. Statistical multivariate regression method was used to analyze the relationship between geomorphic variables with sedimentation of each sub-basin. The results of the study of the relationship between geomorphic characteristics and sedimentation of sub-basins showed that the amount of sediment produced was positively correlated with slope index, roundness, drainage texture, rainfall, unevenness and basin area and was significant at the level of 0.001. In order to influence the variables on the sedimentation rate of the sub-basins, the principal component analysis and cluster analysis methods were used. The results showed that the three factors of roundness coefficient, slope coefficient and drainage texture coefficient of the basin explain 44.62, 25.22 and 16.74% of the variance of all research variables, respectively. In total, the three final extracted factors were able to explain 87% of the variance of all research variables.

North Atlantic oscillation effective pattern of variability of atmospheric general circulation in the extra-tropical Northern Hemisphere are the main climatic factors that control precipitation and temperature. They have huge economic and social impacts and also on the energy section, agriculture, industry and so son. Considering the importance of the oscillation on human activities and its relationship with climatic elements including precipitation, we identified and analyzed the positive phase of the oscillation and its subsequent relationship with winter rainfall in Iran. Data needed for this study included measurements of the amount of rainfall on a daily basis in synoptic stations, Climate and rain gauge data for the entire country in the years 1340-1388 were used, the sources of which are Meteorological Organization and the Ministry of Energy. By the use of multivariate statistical methods and Matlab, Surfer and Grads software the extraction of synoptic patterns. The results indicated five patterns extractions despite the stable condition in five patterns of the earth's surface in this phase, and the measurement of atmospheric precipitation that justifies this subject, was done by using patterns in 500 hpa level. Iran is located in the axis of cyclone related to the Mediterranean basin. Therefore, atmospheric precipitation in the whole country was dominated by the low pressure occurrence in winter.
