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

, 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.

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

Geophysical 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.

Multidetachment analogue models of fold reactivation in transpression : the NW Persian Gulf [PDF]

, 2013
Two deformation events have been documented in the NW Persian Gulf during the Late Cretaceous and the Late Cenozoic. The most distinctive feature in this part of the Persian Gulf is the reactivation of the Late Cretaceous NNE-SSW Arabian trending folds ...

How soil conditioners and planting methods influence the cost of seedling establishment

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2026.
A high risk of plant failure in semiarid ecosystems requires restoration methods that mitigate environmental harshness while remaining economically viable. This study investigated the impact of planting methods and soil amendments on the survival and growth of Cercis griffithii, a keystone shrub of cultural significance, native to mountainous regions ...

Potential Evaluation and Basin Modeling of the Pabdeh Formation in Zagros Basin: A Case Study

Open Journal of Geology, 2017
Pabdeh Formation is one of the most important source rocks in Zagros basin. In this study, thermal modeling and comparing of hydrocarbon potential evaluation of Pabdeh Formation in Mish Anticline and Gachsaran oil field have been investigated. For this reason, Rock-Eval pyrolysis was carried out on 21 cuttings samples collected from 2 boreholes (Well ...

The local paleoenvironment of Kalavan‐2 based on small‐vertebrate remains and its implications for human‐environment‐dynamics between 60 and 35 ka in the Armenian Highlands

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 153-177, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Kalavan‐2, a high‐altitude (∼1640 m a.s.l.) open‐air site in Armenia, preserves stratified Middle Paleolithic occupations with a rich small‐vertebrate record. Luminescence dating has placed site formation between ~60 and 45 ka, but without independent chronological control of the microvertebrate accumulation.

The Socio‐Cultural and Spiritual Dimensions on Non‐Marketed Environmental Valuation

Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S1, Page 407-426, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The present review aims to strengthen both the theoretical foundation and real‐world relevance of environmental valuation methods, especially in regions marked by cultural diversity or spiritual significance. Its goal is to explore how embracing socio‐cultural pluralism can support more inclusive, meaningful, and accepted environmental ...
