Abstract
This study with a purpose to investigate the position of "water resources" in spatial planning of "systematic review". The statistical population of the research includes all scientific articles in the field of spatial planning that have been indexed in the scientific information database over the past 41 years. Research findings show that in the past four decades, only 12 percent of the articles in the process were related to water. The dominant fields of study are "Determination of optimum land uses, water resources status, systematic analysis of spatial planning policies in the face of water scarcity, and the impact of human activities on quantitative and qualitative water crises" In terms of research methodology, most articles have used quantitative methods, especially statistical software, and paid little attention to in-person interviews with water stakeholders, local people and experts. In terms of journals, a total of 19 journals have been active in the field of water-related articles and "spatial Planning" is ranked first. In terms of the time trend, in the 60s and 70s, the number of articles related to water was the lowest, and the increasing trend started in the 80s and reached its peak in the 90s. Finally, in the solution section, the issues such as "water resources recycling, water resource planning instead of activities planning, mechanized agriculture, using hazard-oriented spatial planning and green planning, adapting the uses to ecological capacity of the regions" are emphasized.
