The Oligocene-Recent Red Sea rift is one of the preeminent examples lithospheric rupture in recent geological past, forming basis for many models how continental breakup occurs and progresses to formation new oceanic crust. Utilisation low-temperature thermochronology Rift since 1980s has been key constraining its spatio-temporal evolution, providing constraints propagation strain geomorphologi...

The deep-sea brines of the Red Sea include some of the most extreme and unique environments on Earth. They combine high salinities with increases in temperature, heavy metals, hydrostatic pressure, and anoxic conditions, creating unique settings for thriving populations of novel extremophiles. Despite a recent increase of studies focusing on these unusual biotopes, their viral communities remai...

if we consider the starting of achaemenian empire in 559 bc, the year that cyrus, the second, came to power and its ending in 332 bc, the year that iran was conquered by alexander, the macedonian, in these 227 years of military and political development of achaemenian empire, some of the nations and countries for example egypt, within achaemenian territory came under iranian military, economic ...

Koeda et al. (2014) published a review of fishes of the genus Pempheris of the Red Sea. They concluded that there are four species: P. adusta Bleeker, P. mangula Cuvier, P. nesogallica Cuvier, and a new species, P. tominagai. We show that the first three species they cite are not present in the Red Sea, as follows. 1) P. adusta is a western Pacific species (type locality Ambon), described only ...

A new species, Melithaea davidisp. n., is described from the eastern coast of Oman, Oman Sea, in the northwestern Indian Ocean, where it differs from its congeners in lacking capstans and having predominantly spindles in the coenenchyme. A molecular phylogenetic analysis of mtMutS and 28S rDNA genes suggests that it is genetically distinct from similar species in the Red Sea. Furthermore, a spe...

the effective patterns and mechanisms of synoptic systems during the wet and dry spells in midwest of iran(mwi) analyzed and discussed on seasonal scales from 1974 to 2003. synoptic analysis is based on synoptic chartson sea level pressure (slp), 850 and 500 hpa levels. the results of synoptic analysis show that dry spells in mwiare mostly corresponded to azores high (azh) intensifying and its ...
