Microearthquakes and crustal structure off the Makran Coast of Iran
Geophysical Research Letters, 1980 On the basis of bathymetric and seismic data collected recently off the coast of Makran in the Gulf of Oman, it has been suggested that the folding of the sediments at the northern edge of the abyssal plain is taking place at the present time. The folding is thought to be the consequence of ongoing subduction of the Arabian plate beneath the Eurasian ...

Analysis of the Makran Coastline of Iran’s Vulnerability to Global Sea-Level Rise
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 The SE coast of Iran is of great economic and environmental importance. Global climate change affects this coastline through sea level rise (SLR), compounded by a decrease in sediment budgets in coastal areas. This study developed a Coastal Vulnerability

Atarbolana makranensis, a new species of Cirolanidae (Crustacea, Isopoda) from Makran, Iranian coast of the Gulf of Oman. [PDF]
Zookeys, 2015 Atarbolana makranensis sp. n. is described from the intertidal zone of Makran along the Iranian coast of the Gulf of Oman. Atarbolana makranensis sp. n. can be recognized by the presence of a tuft of long setae on the antennal flagellum of males, elongate pleotelson with 12 robust marginal setae, pleotelson with narrowly rounded apex extending well ...

Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Analysis for Western Makran Coasts, Southeast Iran [PDF]
Natural Hazards, 2022 Abstract Makran subduction zone, along the southern coasts of Iran and Pakistan has a wide potential seismogenic zone and may be capable of generating large magnitude (M~9) tsunamigenic earthquakes. Considering ambiguities exist in tsunamigenic source characterization for subduction megathrusts like Makran, where detailed geologic, seismic, and
