Deserts, playa lakes, and similar landforms in many arid and semi-arid regions have experienced disturbance and turbulence due to human activities. Among these, the Eshtehard Plain, identified by the Ministry of Energy's reports as one of the critically restricted plains due to its groundwater resource conditions, is highly sensitive to active geomorphological processes and surface changes. This study aims to analyze the geometric patterns and degree of turbulence in clay microforms of the Eshtehard Plain using the perimeter-area fractal model as a tool for simulating unstable surface disturbances. This region, due to its unique geomorphological characteristics, has not previously been independently subjected to fractal analysis. To this end, during the winter of 2024, 403 surface microforms were imaged, of which 208 with distinct boundaries were selected, and their area and perimeter were precisely measured. The fractal dimension (DAP) for each form was calculated and analyzed using the logarithmic relationship between perimeter and area. The results showed that DAP values range from 1.60 to 1.90, indicating a high level of geometric turbulence and structural complexity in the region. The mean DAP value of 1.75 and a high correlation coefDeserts, playa lakes, and similar landforms in many arid and semi-arid regions have experienced disturbance and turbulence due to human activities.
