Simultaneous employment of hydrodynamical simulation and RS imageries for analyzing the influence of an anthropogenic construction on shoreline transformation [PDF]
Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2023 Coastal areas are usually heavily exploited. Numerous anthropogenic constructions are developed along the coastal areas for recreational, economic and/or cultural purposes. They influence the coastal hydrodynamics.

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

Microearthquakes and crustal structure off the Makran coast of Iran
Deep Sea Research Part B. Oceanographic Literature Review, 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 ...

Holocene Sedimentary Record and Coastal Evolution in the Makran Subduction Zone (Iran)
Quaternary, 2019 The western Makran coast displays evidence of surface uplift since at least the Late Pleistocene, but it remains uncertain whether this displacement is accommodated by creep on the subduction interface, or in a series of large earthquakes.

Extension at the coast of the Makran subduction zone (Iran)
Terra Nova, 2019 AbstractIn the Makran subduction zone, earthquake focal mechanisms and geodetic data indicate that the deforming prism currently experiences N–S compression. However, palaeostress inversions performed on normal faults observed along the coast reveal local stress components consistent with N‐S extension.
