Read More The contribution of tourism and travel to both industrialized and developing countries is now so great that any changes in the level of activity in the industry are a cause for concern. There have been many instances where the tourism industry in one or more countries has suffered an unexpected and sudden downturn in demand. Policy makers are faced with the predicament of if and how they should respond to such crises in the absence of research into the relative effectiveness of different responses. TI1is paper shows that it is difficult, if not impossible, to formulate polices that guarantee that tourism can be maintained for a long time. This paper examines constructing a computable general model to analyze the effects of tourism crisis and potential and actual policy responses to the crisis.A panel Discussion model is a useful tool in forecasting and evaluating tourism demand. The model is built around a set of data taken from national accounts sources. The input• output table is derived from the national input-output table, with additional considered. The main objectives of this paper were to develop a planning tool as well as the assessment of land use paucn and quantitative and qualitative estimation of tourists, and its management, with reference to conservation, and determination of demographic trends. Based on the carrying capacity, estimating the hotel bed capacity is possible. Summarizing the core of Butler's theory is another related concept which is being described, according to which in an unexploited area, the tourists are initally only a few people and their number grows very slowly (exploration) . Following this discovery period, there is a phase of rapid growth, in general accompanied by a cocomitant capital development, and , finally, a stagnation phase. accommodated in an area. It is the prescribed number of visitors at one time that will be accommodated. Experts have often made use of the concept of carrying capacity in addressing the tourism that is developed and managed in such a way that all tourism activity- which in some way focuses on cultural of nature heritage resources - can continue to grow. Carrying capacity is simply the largest number of any given type of tourists that a destination can support without making any socio-cultural and natural negative effect. One suggestion for dealing with the impacts of tourism has been a call for establishing a tourism carrying capacity for different regions. Carrying capacity is fundamentally a quantitative term, arrived at through asking "How many is too many?" But the problems associated with increasing tourism arc not so much a function of numbers , as of behavior . Instead of trying to determine some' magic number', that itself varies according to climate, type, and perceptions of use, we should ask, "What are the acceptable/appropriate conditions for our country?" Carrying capacities in nature are not fixed , static, or simple relations . They are contingent on technology, preferences, and the structure of production and consumption. Most recent studies on "carrying capacity" do not try to set a magic Number that is a so- called optimal number of visitors. Several factors including seasonality and distribution across the region must be

Assessment of these areas in human and physical specifications point of view can help us for developing of tourism industry in these areas. One of the major specifications that we must have more attention to it, arc coastal landforms . Therefore, assessment of distribution and evolution of them is very important. In fact, there are many landforms in coastal areas that reorganization of them and its effective on the development of tourism industry is very important , potentials and limitations by these landforms in relation to select of tourism site and development of settlements must be considered by government and tourism company. There are many landforms in coastal area of south and north of Iran. These areas attract many tourist and we ought to have attention to these landforms seriously. in fact if we will have thought to sustainable tourism industry in Iran, we must assessed of coastal area in geomorphology point of view and distribution and evolution of landforms and its effective in tourism industry. data on GDP by industry and national income and product account data used to update this table. The model is both theoretical and applied and is based on very simple and general assumptions about the interactions between the three main components of the system: the tourists, the environment , and the Capital. These assumptions are encapsulated in a so- called panet discussion model, used to predict the economic and environmental impact of any given policy. This paper is of value for three reasons. First , it introduces the approach of forecasting models in the context of tourism, which has traditionally been dominated by the use of economertic models Second , the specific results are quite interesting . In fact, tourism sustainabillity can be achieved, provided agents are prudent about reinvesting their profits and compatible behavior to an unprofitable or incompatible one. Third , although not directly related to the problem of tourism but rather to the general topic of sustainability, this is one of the first times that the notion of sustainability, which is more and more pervasive in the field of resource management, is interpreted strictly in terms of the structural properties of the attractors of a dynamic system. This creates an important and promising bridge between sustainability and bifurcation theory, one of the most important areas of systems analysis.
