Geochemical and Palynological analysis were carried out to assess hydrocarbon potential palaeoenvironmental deposition for (27) core cutting rock samples recovered from selected oil exploratory wells , Makhul-2 (Mk-2),Qarachuq-1 (Qc-1) Qarachuq-2(Qc-2), TaqTaq-1(Taq-1), Butmah-15 (Bm-15), Ajeel-8 (Aj-8)and Jabal kand( Jk -1) ,encountered Butmah Formation ( Lower-Middle Liassic) Sargelu (Middle ...

the life table parameters of schizaphis graminum (rondani) (hemiptera: aphididae) on four commercial cultivars of wheat (kohdasht, pastor, tajan and zagros) were determined in laboratory conditions. fertility life table were constructed using age-specific survivorship (lx) and age-specific fecundity (mx) and subsequently analyzed using jackknife method and anova. there were significant differen...

M ore than 7,000 years ago, when grapes and yeast joined forces for the first time to lift the spirit of humankind, the ancients imbibed with joy, unknowingly celebrating the beginnings of one of the world’s oldest biotechnological processes. The first “magical” juice came from spontaneously fermented grapes cultivated in the Zagros Mountains of Ancient Persia and the Caucasus Mountain Range be...

Geoheritage requires proper conservation and has significant importance for geoscience education at universities. Furthermore, its related potential needs to be evaluated. This study focuses on two textbook localities (these are parts of larger geosites) from the Cenozoic orogenic belts, namely Zagros Greater Caucasus. The novel, tentatively proposed approach aims general geological characteris...

The sequence of the coastal siliciclastic facies Paleocene-Eocene Zagros Foreland Basin is well exposed in Chwarta-Mawat area, north Sulaimani Governorate, northeastern Iraq. According to previous studies, this designated as Red Beds Series (RBS), consisting more than 2000 m fine and coarse red grey clastics. present study found recently recognized lithologies (RRLs) about 100 thick inside seri...
