Seismic and Sequence Analysis of Middle to Late Miocene Deposits of Northeast Java Basin

Depositional Environment and Sequence Stratigraphy of the Oligocene-Miocene Deposits North and East of Dehdasht, Izeh Zone, Zagros Basin, Iran

In this study, four well-exposed outcrops of the Asmari Fm in the southeastern part of the Izeh Zone of the Zagros Mountains were measured and sampled. In this region, the Asmari Fm is Oligocene to Early Miocene in age as determined by large benthic foraminifera. Based on depositional geometries, biogenic contents and lateral and vertical variations of facies, three depositional models are prop...

Paleoecology of Early to Middle Miocene Deposits (Guri Member) and Sedimentary Environment, SE Zagros Zone, Roydar, Iran

This research focusses on the facies distribution, paleoenvironment and paleoecology of the foraminifera of the Guri Member in the northern Bandar Abbas Hinterland located in the Roydar area of southern Iran. The Guri Member is 570 meters thick and composed of limestone, argillaceous limestone and marl. The distribution of the foraminifera in the study area indicates the existence of three bioz...

Biostratigraphy of Oligo-Miocene marine deposits of Central Iran basin based on calcareous nannoplanktons

Background and Objectives: ?????? Methods: ?????? Findings: ?????? Conclusion: ?????   The present study is the first study aimed at biostratigraphy based on calcareous nannoplankton that has been performed on all succession exposed from the Oligo-Miocene marine deposits (members a to f of the Qom Formation).

Applications of Spatial Databases and Structures to the Study of Miocene Deposits of Borod Basin

In this paper we apply spatial database and structure to render the paleo-relief of the Borod Basin. The boreholes data are stored in a spatial database. For the effective surface rendering we use local-Shepard interpolation with variable radius, based on a spatial grid and Delaunay triangulation. The generated pictures are more realistic compared to picture generated by mean of other methods. ...
