In this study, the active tectonics, paleoseismicity, and seismic hazards of Doroud Fault are examined through high-resolution satellite image interpretations, field investigations, outcrop trench excavations, dating geochronology samples. The (DF), one essential segments Main Recent in northern margin Zagros mountain range, has a historical instrumental background high seismicity. We present f...

This study quantifies the significance of southerly water vapour fluxes, associated with the Zagros Mountains barrier jet, on precipitation occurring in the Eastern Fertile Crescent region and its change due to global warming. Precipitation events are simulated using a Regional Climate Model (MM5-Noah) driven by boundary conditions from a CCSM global climate model simulation with the SRES A2 em...

Assessing the Plant Communities Changes by Effects of Vegetation Type, Physiography and Soil in Central Zagros Forest

Estimation of the Economic Value Soil Nutrition Protection in Zagros Forest Ecosystems (Case Study: Noujian Watershed Khoramabad)

Abstract The Turkish-Iranian Plateau and the Zagros highlands are among most prominent physiographic features in Middle East were formed as a result of continental collision between Arabian Eurasian plates. To better understand nature lithospheric mantle origin observed seismic anomalies this region, we investigated attenuation uppermost by detailed measurements quality factor Sn phase (Sn Q). ...
