tectonic processes are major factors controlling landform development in tectonically active areas. in order to evaluate quantitative measurement of tectonic activities in the alamarvdasht basin in the south of iran, six different morphological indices including stream-gradient index (sl), drainage basin asymmetry (af), hypsometric integral (hi), valley floor width-valley height ratio (vf), dra...

this paper attempts to investigate the capability of the numerical finite element method for the removal of the regional effects from the observed gravity data from the dehnow anticline. from a geological point of view, the dehnow area is a part of the fars sedimentary basin south-east iran. the khamy formation and bangestan group are the oldest geological structures in the area that have outcr...

Pliocene and Quaternary tectonic structures mainly consisting of segmented northwest–southeast normal faults, and associated seismicity in the central Betics do not agree with the transpressive tectonic nature of the Africa–Eurasia plate boundary in the Ibero-Maghrebian region. Active extensional deformation here is heterogeneous, individual segmented normal faults being linked by relay ramps a...

â â â  chele basin is located in zagros mountains and the border between kermanshah and ilam. seems young geomorphological landforms in the region, are as a result of quaternary neotectonic activities . the purpose of this study is assessment of young morphotectonic movements influence on landform evolution in the chele basin øŒ and comparing the result with the tentative indices and geomorphic...

the sangbast-shandiz fault zone, with a length of about 57 km, a width of moderately 2 km, and a nw-se direction, is located about 15 km in the west of mashhad city. that is one of the major faults in the binalud mountains. geomorphic evidences illustrate that the sangbast-shandiz fault zone has dextral strike- slip offsets with thrust activity. in this article, we investigated geomorphic featu...
