Geology and Petroleum Potential of the Makran Coast, Pakistan

Proceedings of Offshore South East Asia Show, 1982
Coastal Makran is generally acknowledged as a subduction zone where the Indian Ocean plate moves northward under continental crust. The geologic history deduced from facies and structures is complex and can be divided into three major episodes :A Middle Miocene and older phase dominated by turbidity currentdeposition on a vast deep-sea fan which ...

The probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment along Karnataka Coast from Makran Subduction Zone, west coast of India

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2018
Coastal tsunami amplitudes were calculated to identify areas susceptible to tsunami hazard at selected locations of the coast of Karnataka, west of India, due to earthquakes in the Makran Subduction Zone. This is the first time that the probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment along this study area has been attempted.

Microplastics in the surface seawaters of Chabahar Bay, Gulf of Oman (Makran Coasts)

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2019
Current study aimed to evaluate the microplastics abundance in the surface waters of Chabahar Bay for the first time. 21 neuston net water samples were collected from 7 stations. Microplastics were visually counted by stereomicroscope, sorted into 4 size categories, 4 shape categories, and identified by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy.

Deep structure of the western coast of the Makran subduction zone, SE Iran

Tectonophysics, 2020
Abstract The Makran subduction zone is one of the world's least well documented active subduction zones. We investigate the geometry of subsurface velocity interfaces across the western coastal Makran by means of teleseismic data for the first time. The data were gathered by two permanent and four temporary seismic stations.

Harappan Outposts on the Makran Coast

Antiquity, 1962
The widespread remains of the Indus Valley or Harappan civilization—contemporaneous in part with the great civilizations of Mesopotamia and Egypt—present at first glance a picture of sterile isolationism. Yet none of the great civilizations of the world originated or thrived in a cultural and economic vacuum.

Coastal boulders as evidence for high-energy waves on the Iranian coast of Makran

Marine Geology, 2011
Abstract Coastal boulder deposits attesting to large waves are found along the rocky coast of Makran (Iran) from Chabahar to Lipar. Boulders are either scattered on the rocky coastal platform or accumulated in imbricated clusters. The boulders are mostly rectangular and composed of biogenic calcarenite deriving from the present coastal platform ...
