The wast area of Iran covered by relatively flat and low land. condition in more than two third of iran are located in arid and semi arid area. Poor vegetation cover, relatively flat lead this area to dominate of deflatin and sand accumulation. This article attemped to illuminate the geomorphology characteristic of Barkhan in wetern part of lut (east of Lut). At first, study area limited by areal photos and sattlite image. Morphometric charasteristic of 16 Barkhan znd samling of 10 Barkhan was measured in field and lab. Statistical analysis was done on morphometric charasteristc of Barkhan and grain size of sand. Results show the corolation analysis between morphometric parameters of Barkhan is highe and more than 99 percent. In Other word each changes in one parameter change the other parameters. Statistical analysis show that rigth lenth armes of Barkhan is longer than left arms. This show that the right lenth of arms is more under the dominant wind of region. Granulometry results shoe that most frequency of grain size is in the range of 250 to 500 micron (54.4%) also the range between 125 to 250 micron is in second order (%36.64) and the range between 63 to 125 ldv,k located at third order (%6.31).
