چکیده

رودخانه­ ها سیستم­ های طبیعی پیچیده­ ای هستند که طبقه­ بندی آنها می­تواند درک بهتری از مطالعه فرآیندها و اشکال رودخانه فراهم آورد. رودخانه­ ها از نظر شکل کانال و میزان پویایی بسیار متعدد هستند. هدف از این مطالعه ارزیابی شرایط هیدروژئومورفولوژی رودخانه­ ی طالقان واقع در استان البرز با استفاده از شاخص کیفی مورفولوژیک (MQI) می­باشد. در این روش عوامل مؤثر شامل دخالت ­های انسانی، پوشش گیاهی و پیوستگی فرآیندهای رودخانه­ ای می­باشد. به این منظور 6 بازه در بالادست رودخانه­ ی طالقان مشخص شد و با استفاده از تصاویر ماهواره ­ای و بازدیدهای میدانی میزان MQI برای هر بازه­ ی مشخص گردید. برای ارزیابی کیفیت مورفولوژیک بازه­های رودخانه سه جنبه­ی پیوستگی فرآیندهای رودخانه­ای (طولی و عرضی)، شرایط مورفولوژیکی کانال، شکل مقطع عرضی و رسوبات بستر و پوشش گیاهی مورد توجه قرار گرفت، که این جنبه­ ها در قالب سه مؤلفه عملکردهای ژئومورفولوژیک، فرایندها و اشکال رودخانه­ ای (F)، مصنوعی (A) و تعدیل­ های کانال (CA) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. نتایج نشان داد بازه­ی شماره­ ی 1 با محدوده ­ی امتیاز 71/0در طبقه خوب قرار گرفت که از دلایل آن دخالت­ های کم انسانی و واقع بودن در بالادست رودخانه بوده است. اما بازه­ های 2، 3 ، 5 و 6 به ترتیب با امتیاز های 58/0، 54/0، 59/0و 61/0 در طبقه متوسط قرار می­گیرند که این بازه­ ها نسبت به بازه­ ی 1 میزان دخالت­ های انسانی در آنها بیشتر بوده است و در بازه­ی 4 امتیاز MQI 49/0 می­باشد که در طبقه­ ی ضعیف قرار می­گیرد که دلیل آن دخالت­ های انسانی از جمله برداشت شن و ماسه و سازه­ هایی مانند پل می­باشد. نتایج به دست آمده بیانگر آن است که مدل MQI جهت طبقه ­بندی رودخانه در دامنه­ ی جنوبی البرز مناسب است.

چکیده [English]

1-Introduction
One of the most elements in river geomorphology, engineering and management is the channel issue. Rivers are natural and complex systems that their classification offers a better knowledge regarding their processes and forms. Based on dynamic and channel forms, rivers are varied and find natural changes over the years. However, nowadays anthropogenic effects comprising building structures such as bridges, and roads accelerate the destructive process. River classification is a suitable way to increase our knowledge about rivers. One important aspect of river is hydrogeomorphological understanding. Therefore the objectives of this study were to assess and analyze the Taleghan river hydrogeomorphological conditions using the geomorphological quality index method (MQI) in upstream of the Taleghan dam and to validate MQI in this river.
2-Methodology
Six reaches in upstream of the Taleghan River have been selected and MQI for each reach determined using satellite images and field survey. In order to determine SQI for each reach, three aspects have considered including river processes continuity (longitudinal and crosswise), channel morphological condition, cross-section form, sediment bed

 

loads and vegetation. These aspects investigated in the form of three  components consists of geomorphological functions, processes and river forms (F), artificial (A) and channel adjustments (CA).
3-Results
After measurement and field observation of the Taleghan River, effective variables on morphological quality index were obtained in reach. MAI and MQI values for each reach were calculated and classification was done based on the range of each class. The condition of each reach based on MQI was explained as follows:
The first reach: took place in a mountain area and upstream of the river that on both sides connected to the river and is limited.
Based on the NBS model erosion of bank steam is in a minor amount and the average bed slope in this reach is 0.028 with gravel bed.
Channel width is variable between 10 to 18 m and has a single channel pattern. The obtained MQI values in this reach is 0.714 that grouped in a good class.
Reaches comprising four reaches (two, three, five and six) have the same condition that in the point of human interfering, morphological condition and values of bed and bank erosion have a normal array and grouped in moderate class.
In reach 4 the river is fairly limited and flood plain is present discontinuously on one side and the other side is attached to the hillside. The river has a sinuouse pattern and bed load sediment formed by fine and coarse sand. Furthermore, forth reach strongly influenced by human changes consists of gravel and sand quarring, the existence of bridge structure on the river, presence of built-up area and destruction of vegetation along the river.
4-Discussion and conclusion
The results showed that reach one with score value of 0.714 due to low human interference and locating in upstream of the river categorized in a

 
good class. Otherwise, reaches two, three, five and six have values of 0.58, 0.54, 0.59 and 0.61, respectively and they are categorized in moderate class; in these reaches in comparison to reach one the values of human interference have been increased. The reach four with MQI score value of 0.49, is categorized in a weak class because of human interference including gravel and sand exploitation and structures such as bridges on the river. The results reveal that the MQI model is approperiate for the classification of rivers in the Taleghan River in southern of Alborz Chain Mountain.
