Multistage dolomitization of upper jurassic mozduran formation, Kopet-Dagh Basin, n.e. Iran [PDF]
This paper is a study of the origin and diagenetic history of the Upper Jurassic dolomites of the Mozduran Formation, from north eastern Iran, in the Kopet-Dagh Basin. Petrographic and geochemical studies indicate that the Mozduran dolomites were subjected to a complex diagenetic history, resulting five different dolomite—rock textures. Dolomite type 1

The Atlas of Morocco: A Plume‐Assisted Orogeny
Abstract We explore the connections between crustal shortening, volcanism, and mantle dynamics in the Atlas of Morocco. In response to compressional forces and strain localization, this intraplate orogen has evolved far from convergent plate margins.

Abstract Aim The mountainous regions in SW Asia harbour a high number of endemic species, many of which are restricted to the high‐elevation zone. The (sub)alpine habitats of the region are under particular threat due to global change, but their biodiversity hotspots and conservation status have not been investigated so far.

Geochemical and Isotopic Evolution of Late Oligocene Magmatism in Quchan, NE Iran
Abstract Magmatic activity that accompanied the collision between Arabia and Eurasia at ∼27 Ma, provides unique opportunities for understanding the triggers and magma reservoirs for collisional magmatism and its different styles in magmatic fronts and back‐arcs.
