Deformation of the Makran accretionary sediment prism in the Gulf of Oman (north-west Indian Ocean)

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 1982
Summary The offshore Makran of Pakistan and Iran in the Gulf of Oman forms the seaward margin of a folded and faulted accretionary sediment wedge which extends several hundred kilometres inland across the onshore Makran. Sediment is being scraped off the oceanic Arabian plate as it subducts shallowly northward beneath the Eurasian plate.

Asymmetrical fold test in the case of overfolding: two examples from the Makran accretionary prism (Southern Iran)

Physics and Chemistry of the Earth, Parts A/B/C, 2002
Abstract We present paleomagnetic data from two overturned kink folds with horizontal axes, located NW of the Makran accretionary prism, southern Iran. In each one of these structures, the subvertical and the overturned limbs have been sampled in order to perform a fold test.

Authigenic carbonates derived from oxidized methane vented from the Makran accretionary prism off Pakistan

Marine Geology, 1996
We report the first discovery and sampling of a methane-hydrogen sulfide rich “cold seep” from the Makran accretionary prism off Pakistan (Arabian Sea). A variety of cm- to m-scale pockmarks and gas seepage structures were identified from underwater TV-photo sled profiles crossing the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ), related to highresolution seismic ...

P-T evolution of metapelites from the Bajgan complex in the Makran accretionary prism, south eastern Iran

Geochemistry, 2017
Abstract The Bajgan Complex, one of the basement constituents of the arc massif in Iranian Makran forms a rugged, deeply incised terrain. The complex consists of pelitic schists with minor psammitic and basic schists, calc silicate rocks, amphibolites, marbles, metavolcanosediments, mafic and felsic intrusives as well as ultramafic rocks. Metapelitic

Geodynamics and Structural Evolution of Makran Accretionary Prism, Arabian-Eurasian Convergent Plate Boundary

The complex interplay between thrust wedge deformation, tectonically-induced fluid overpressures, and the complex phases of wedge-top sedimentary depositional systems in accretionary prisms presents a formidable challenge. The offshore Makran accretionary prism is the world's largest, formed by the convergence of Arabian plate underneath Eurasian plate

Remote Sensing and GIS Analysis of Spatial Distribution of Fracture Patterns in the Makran Accretionary Prism, Southeast Iran

2007
This study shows that remote sensing and GIS are powerful tools in identifying geologically induced lineaments from digitally enhanced ETM+ satellite imageries and the digital elevation model (DEM) in remote areas such as the Makran accretionary prism, southeast Iran.
