Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.

Magnetotelluric signature for the Zagros collision [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2013
Zagros is a relatively young and active fold-thrust belt, which has formed due to convergence between the Eurasian and Arabian plates.

Depositional Facies, Sequence Stratigraphy, and Diagenesis of Lower Cretaceous Carbonate Reservoir, Southern Iraq: Implications for Petroleum Exploration

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 312-345, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The Lower Cretaceous Yamama Formation of southern Iraq represents a key carbonate reservoir within Iraq and the Middle East, yet its complex depositional facies architecture and diagenetic alterations present challenges for predicting reservoir quality.

A Plant‐Diversity Dark Spot at the Intersection of Three Biodiversity Hotspots: Environmental Drivers of Brassicaceae Richness in Türkiye

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Türkiye lies at the intersection of three global biodiversity hotspots yet is recognised as a global plant‐diversity "dark spot." Using > 15,000 georeferenced herbarium records and spatial regression models, we examined the environmental drivers of Brassicaceae species and endemic richness across the country. Species richness increased with topographic

Evaporite-karst processes, landforms, and environmental problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Evaporite karst is widespread, but relatively unknown when compared with carbonate karst; this special issue addresses that lack of familiarity. Evaporite rocks have much higher solubilities and faster dissolution rates than carbonate rocks and they also

Quantifying Multi‐Source Sediment Supply in a Tropical Foreland Basin (Oligocene‐Miocene Nyalau Formation, Borneo)

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Detrital zircon unmixing identifies three sediment sources for the Oligocene–Miocene Nyalau Formation, including a previously unrecognised syn‐depositional component characterised by Oligocene–Miocene volcanic zircons and Neoproterozoic populations absent from established sources.

Determination of the most appropriate transect length for estimation of quantitative characteristics in Zagros forests [PDF]

open access: yesمجله جنگل ایران, 2009
Collection of appropriate qualitative and quantitative data is necessary for proper management and planning. In this research, a region with 457 ha area was selected in northwest of  Khoram Abad.

On the Role of Sea Surface Temperature in the 16 April 2024 Rainstorm Over the United Arab Emirates

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract This study examines how anomalously high sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the Arabian Sea and surrounding gulfs contributed to the record‐breaking rainfall (250 mm day−1 ${\text{day}}^{-1}$) over the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on 16 April 2024, with the greatest impacts in Dubai, Al‐Ain, and Abu Dhabi.
