Constraint on foreland basin migration in the Zagros mountain belt using Sr isotope stratigraphy [PDF]
We have constrained the time-space migration of the Zagros foredeep basin by performing Sr isotope stratigraphy on 31 samples of marine macrofossils from Neogene sediments now exposed in the Zagros mountain belt in southwest Iran.

Shallow burial dolomitization of an Eocene carbonate platform, southeast Zagros Basin, Iran [PDF]
ABSTRACTHere, a case example of a dolomitized Eocene ramp setting from the southeastern Zagros Basin is documented and discussed in the context of published work. This is of significance as well-documented case examples of Eocene dolomitized inner platforms are comparably rare.

Reconstruction of Quaternary ELA of the Zagros Geomorphic Unit of Iran [PDF]
Although the quaternary period is a very short period among the periods of geology, it is important for geomorphologists. The main objectives of this article are to provide the best method to estimate the ELA, analyze the effect of the change of latitude
