Evaluation of Land Use Efficiency in Tehran’s Expansion between 1986 and 2021: Developing an Assessment Framework Using DEMATEL and Interpretive Structural Modeling Methods

Abstract: This paper aims to reveal the shortcomings of the land use efficiency assessment formula presented in SDG 11.3.1 Indicator and develop a framework that can provide urban planners with a more accurate understanding of the variables influencing and/or influenced by urban expansion. Based on the mentioned formula, Tehran never experienced urban shrinkage between 1986 and 2021, as shown by the relationship between land consumption and population growth. However, the research findings indicate that land allocation … Show more

“…Tehran has experienced significant land use and population density changes, particularly over the past five decades. These changes have predominantly occurred in Tehran's western and southern parts, as physical constraints in the north and east limit expansion and land cover modifications [6].…”

“…This increase puts even more pressure on cities to develop housing, services, and infrastructure to meet this growth [1,2]. Such urban expansion, often driven by the conversion of natural landscapes into urban developments, not only places additional pressure on urban carrying capacity [3], but also exacerbates environmental injustice and inequality [4][5][6]. In response to these Urban Sci.…”

“…The environmental thermal load indicator assesses the intensity of heat storage or emission in specific locations within urban areas. Factors influencing thermal load include the volume of buildings (which affects heat storage, limited sky view, and reduces nighttime cooling), topography, and accessibility to green spaces, which provide a cooling effect (Tayebi et al, 2023). Essentially, the thermal load considers how various factors can raise or lower the urban air temperature.…”

“…The urban populations growth and urban expansion have led to reduced land use efficiency and habitat degradation, placing pressure on natural resources and the environment's carrying capacity (Tayebi, Alavi, Esfandi, Meshkani, & Shamsipour, 2023). Urban expansion has a fragmenting, isolating, and destructive impact on natural habitats (Astiaso Garcia, Bruschi, Cinquepalmi, & Cumo, 2013;Marzluff, 2001;Potenza, Gerardi, Fascetti, & Rosati, 2022;Zambrano, Aronson, & Fernandez, 2019).…”

“…It is especially useful in analyzing the causeand-effect relationships between factors of the system and also to find the critical factors of a system [10]. DEMATEL has received a great deal of attention, and it is a widely used method in various fields, such as engineering [11,12], management sciences [13,14], medicine [15], COVID-19 [16][17][18], energy [19,20], urbanization [21,22], ecology [23,24], and others. It is also one of suitable methods to deal with the degree of importance of evaluation factors and to determine the cause-effect relationships between factors [25].…”
