Land Stewardship in Practice: An Example from the Eastern Pamirs of Tajikistan

2012
This chapter reviews previous research and summarizes our own findings that are based on extensive fieldwork conducted between 2007 and 2010 in the ­Eastern Pamirs region that covers part of eastern Tajikistan, western China, and northern Afghanistan. The entry point is an overview of the post-Soviet ­transformation ­processes in Central Asia that are ...

Quaternary glacial geomorphology and glaciations of Kongur Mountain, eastern Pamir, China

Science China Earth Sciences, 2011
Kongur Mountain is the largest center of modern glaciation on the Pamir Plateau. During the glacial-interglacial cycles of the Quaternary, Kongur Mountain was extensively and repeatedly glaciated, and the glacial landforms from multiple glaciations are well-preserved in valleys, in basins, and on the piedmonts.

Gravity anomalies in North-Eastern Afghanistan and on the Pamirs syntaxis

Rendiconti Lincei, 1991
During a survey carried out in Afghanistan in 1964 under the leadership of Prof. A. Desio, Prof. Antonio Marussi measured 64 gravity stations along profiles crossing several regions of the country. These data are published now and their meaning is explained within the context of the other gravity data available on the region including the Hindu Kush ...

MELT EVOLUTION DURING CRYSTALLIZATION OF FERGUSITE PORPHYRIES (Eastern Pamir)

Russian Geology and Geophysics, 1994
Leucite fergusite porphyries from diatremes are produced during crystallization of initial parent undifferentiated magma generated under the upper mantle conditions. Study of melt inclusions in phenocrysts (leucite, apatite, clinopyroxene) has shown that phenocrysts were formed at 1300-1100 °C.

Heavy metals in aerosol samples from the Eastern Pamirs collected 2004–2006

Atmospheric Research, 2009
Abstract This study measured the concentration of heavy metal elements in atmospheric aerosol samples collected between July 2004 and April 2006 at a remote site on Mt. Muztagata (38°17'N, 75°01'E, 4430 m), in the Eastern Pamirs. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP–MS) results show that the air at Muztagata contains low concentrations ...

A New Scandium-Bearing Variety of Tusionite from the Eastern Pamirs (Tajikistan)

Geology of Ore Deposits, 2019
A new Sc-bearing variety of tusionite has been found in the Eastern Pamirs, in the near-miarolitic Dorozhny granite pegmatite complex at the Kukurt pegmatite field (left bank of the Kukurt River, 45 km east of the settlement of Murghab, Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Oblast, Tajikistan). Miarolitic pegmatites are related to the alpine leucocratic granites

Fluid inclusions in minerals and zonation of scapolite metasoms (Eastern Pamir).

2016
In the article the questions of Geochemistry and Mineralogy scapolite Deposit of the East Pamirs. Scapolite mineralization is localized in metasomatity Alpine veins. Scapolite occurs in three generations. Early metamorphic scapolite. Milky-white coarse-grained scapolite. Jewelry clear crystals of scapolite from a later generation.
