Abstract The collision of continents typically leads to orogenesis as a result of crustal thickening and isostatic compensation. High topography is a main locus of precipitation‐fueled erosion, providing a feedback‐loop between tectonics, surface processes, and climate.

Lithospheric structure beneath the Zagros collision zone resolved by non-linear teleseismic tomography [PDF]
The upper-mantle structure across the Zagros collision zone, in southwest Iran, is investigated using a non-linear weighted damped least-squares teleseismic tomography approach. The resolution of the structures/transitions in the upper mantle is enhanced

Abstract Magmatic intrusions in rifted continental margins play a critical role in shaping structural evolution, yet their geometry and emplacement mechanisms remain poorly constrained in salt‐influenced terrains. The Moroccan Central High Atlas, a segment of the Atlas fold‐and‐thrust belt, hosts extensive Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous intrusions

Le monde regroupe 4600 ports en activité, mais moins d'une centaine ont une importance mondiale. Le trafic maritime a donc un niveau élevé de concentration dans un nombre limité de grands ports, un processus essentiellement attribué aux contraintes liées

The Neotethyan Sanandaj-Sirjan zone of Iran as an archetype for passive margin-arc transitions [PDF]
The Sanandaj-Sirjan zone of Iran is a northwest trending orogenic belt immediately north of the Zagros suture, which represents the former position of the Neotethys Ocean.

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 ...

Some broad inferences have been drawn by the authors : “In South Asia, our dataset provides insight into the sources of Ancestral North Indians … However, it can be modelled as a mix of ancestry related to both early farmers of western Iran and to people of the Bronze Age Eurasian steppe.” [Lazaridis et al, 2016 : Genomic insights into the origin of ...

Neogene sediments and modern depositional environments of the Zagros foreland basin system [PDF]
A sedimentological investigation of the Neogene deposits of the Zagros foreland basin in SW Iran reveals a continuous and largely gradational passage from supratidal and sabkha sediments at the base (represented by the Gachsaran Formation) to carbonates ...
