Tree rings as ecological indicator of geomorphic activity in geoheritage studies [PDF]
Ecological Indicators, 2018 Abstract Mountain areas are characterized by geomorphic processes, especially mass wasting and snow avalanches, which may impact the landscape affecting also the biological component, trees included. If sites colonized by trees are characterized by geomorphic features with a high Global and Scientific Value, including Representativeness of ...

Neotectonics Analysis in the Basin of the North West Slopes of Sahand (East Azerbaijan) [PDF]
جغرافیا و توسعه, 2017 The evaluation of active tectonics in each region is important. Several faults in the Sahand mountain range provide a suitable basis for studying tectonic activities in the basins of this region.

Relative tectonic activity assessment of Kutahya Graben (Western Anatolia): Insights from geomorphic indices [PDF]
, 2022 Astract: Western Anatolia is known as one of the most seismically active regions in the world, consistent with earthquakes having a magnitude >6.0. The deformation in the region is predominantly controlled by normal faults, which play significant role on
