Rift basins developed extensively across Sundaland, the continental core of Southeast Asia, since the Eocene. Beginning in the early Miocene, basins in southern Sundaland experienced widespread synchronous compression (inversion) and marine inundation, despite a large drop in long-term global sea level. The mechanism for this large-scale synchronous regional sea level rise, basin inversion, and...

The South Caspian Basin (SCB) is the deepest submerged sedimentary basin in World and occupies entire southern deep-water part of Sea Kura West Turkmenian lowlands adjacent to it from west east. SCB has thinnest (6...8 km) consolidated oceanic-type crust thickest cover (25...30 km). thickness Pliocene-Quaternary deposits 10...12 km. main oil gas complex – Productive-Red-Colored Strata Lower Pli...

background and objectives: the usepa has suggested faecal enterococci as the primary bacterial indicators. of more importance is their direct correlation with swimmer-associated gastroenteritis in recreation water quality monitoring. in contrast to other seawater bodies with 3.5% salinity, the recreational waters in the southern coast of the caspian sea possess its own salinity (about 1% w/v) a...

demonstration of the geomorphological factors in setting the legal regime of the caspian seaintroduction:the caspian sea is the largest water basin which enclosed by land within eurasia continent. the caspian sea is unique in many reasons: the large deposits of oil and gas, valuable fishery resources; including 90% of the world’s stock of sturgeon, important transportation routes; connecting th...

The Global climate reorganisation in the late Pliocene linked to enhancement of Atlantic Ocean Thermohaline Circulation (AOTC), instigated a transition glacial-interglacial cyclicity Quaternary. Enhancement AOTC amplified atmospheric precipitation over Eurasian interior strengthening Northern Hemisphere Glaciation. Increased rainfall on vast Russian Plain drained into endorheic Caspian Sea, whi...

 Population genetic structure of Vimba vimba persa was investigated using microsatellite markers from 40 regions along the Iranian coastline of the Southern Caspian Sea (Anzali lagoon and Havigh River in Gilan province, BabolRoud River in Mazandaran province and GorganRoud River in Golestan province). Genomic DNA from 121 specimens was extracted from fin tissue by the Phenol-Chlorophorm method ...
