Gamasiab Drainage Basin; A Suitable Basin for Geomorphologic and Hydrologic Field Research and Educational Purposes

In this paper after introducing geographic features of Gamasiab basin in the west of Iran(Nahavand plain},some general charactristics of the basin ,as well as geologic, hydrologic and geomorphological characterstics are discussed. The geomorphic features of the region and procceses are so varied that we can find a variety of features and phenomena produced by tectonic, fluvial, glacial, karstic , mass movement, and anthropogenic processes. All these make the region a unique place for studying many geologic , geomorphic and hydrologic physical landforms. The aim of the paper is investigating the suitability of the base for geomorphologic and hydrologic studies for B.S. and M.S. students in geomorphology and hydrology fields and emphasis on the need for further research for development plans in the region. Of course recognition of physical potentials of the region cis n lead to the development of ecotourism and scientific tourism in general.
