Geopersia is published biannually by the College of Science, University of Tehran, Iran. The College of Science published Journal of Science, which covered all fields of basic science, from 1968 to 2010. It was then decided that the College’s journals should be more specialized, and hence publication of Geopersia was launched. Articles printed in Geopersia will be available online too. Aims an...

Abstract The glaciogenic nature of the Yudnamutana Subgroup was first recognized over a century ago, and its global significance shortly after, with eventual postulation Sturtian Glaciation Snowball Earth theory. Much debate on origin timing these rocks, locally globally, has ensued in years since. A significant corpus research lithology, sedimentology, geochronology formal lithostratigraphy se...

At least 2.6 million small, artificial water bodies dot the landscape of the conterminous United States; most are in the eastern half of the country. These features account for approximately 20% of the standing water area across the United States, and their impact on hydrology, sedimentology, geochemistry, and ecology is apparently large in proportion to their area. These features locally eleva...

Despite the ubiquity of confluences and tributary networks, the first century of modern fluvial geomorphology paid little consistent attention to river junctions and the interactions between tributaries and the main stem (Kennedy, 1984). Important exceptions include classic contributions ...
