Restoring the Missing Late Cretaceous Arc of Iran
Abstract Persistent arc magmatism archives fluid transport and mantle partial melting in subduction zones. However, arc magmatism often exhibits different magmatic records along the strike, as seen in the Tethyan orogenic belt. During Neo‐Tethys subduction under Iran, there was pulsed arc magmatism with Middle Jurassic and Eocene magmatic flare‐ups ...

Abstract Ambient air pollutants are reported to have adverse health impacts, which could be better assessed by examining human exposure to multiple criteria pollutants or through a multi‐pollutant Air Quality Index (AQI). As compared to AQIs developed using in situ measurements of pollutants across sparse monitoring stations, satellite‐based products ...

Abstract Field‐based studies are limited in Himalaya‐Karakoram (HK); therefore, remote sensing and glaciohydrological modeling provide alternative solutions to investigate runoff evolution under changing climate conditions. Due to limited in situ runoff data in HK, glaciohydrological models are often calibrated using high‐resolution remote sensing data.
