binaloud mountains formed during collision of iran and turan plate in the late triassic time and caused shortening of the sedimentary cover because of cimmerian and alpine orogeny. the thrust sheets with different generations formed as a results of the binalood and alborz fold- thrust belts. northeast of iran that was already south coast of the divergent margin of the paleothetys ocean at this ...

understanding the performance and role of each formation in a petroleum play is crucial for the efficient and precise exploration and exploitation of trapped hydrocarbons in a sedimentary basin. the lorestan basin is one of the most important hydrocarbon basins of iran, and it includes various oil-prone potential source rocks and reservoir rocks. previous geochemical studies of the basin were n...

osteological features are important to study the taxonomy and phylogenetic relationship of fishes. since there is no information is available about osteological features of squalius orientalis , therefore this study was aimed to provide a detailed description of the osteological features of this species from the urmia lake basin of iran and comparing it with population of s. orientalis from the...

Representative ammonites of the Family Heteroceratidae have been studied in this paper. The following forms are recorded from the Koppeh-Dagh Basin: Heteroceras cf. colchicus Djanelidze, Heteroceras spp., Martelites cf. tenuicostatus (Kakabadze), Martelites securiformis (Simonovich, Bastevich and Sorokin), Martelites cf. tinae (Eristavi), Martelites sp.1, Martelites sp. 2, Argvethites sp., Imer...

Haraz-Ghareh Su is one of the seven sub-basins of the Caspian basin, located on the southern shores of the Caspian Sea, and as such, is in danger of water crisis due to absence of proper systematic policy and strategy. In this study, the pressure factors on the Haraz-Ghareh Su water resources were identified using DPSIR model. Then, the pressure parameters on the freshwater resources in the Cas...

the response of karoun basin in lumped and semi-distributed simulation were compared. also, the flood intensity of the sub-basins and the effects of physical parameters on flood hydrograph have been investigated. results demonstrated that there was no significant difference between the characteristics of flood hydrograph in lumped and semi-distributed simulation. also, results showed that the f...
