The Miocene subsidence pattern of the NW Zagros foreland basin reflects the southeastward propagating tear of the Neotethys slab [PDF]
Tectonic processes resulting from solid Earth dynamics control uplift and generate sediment accommodation space via subsidence. Unraveling the mechanism of basin subsidence elucidates the link between deep-Earth and surface processes.

Reappraisal of lithology and depositional environment of carbonate-siliciclastic succession of the Pabdeh Formation in SE Ilam Province, W Iran [PDF]
The Pabdeh Formation (Paleocene–Oligocene) is located in the Zagros foreland basin. This formation was well appreciated as a source rock and somehow a potential reservoir particularly in the Dezful Embayment.
