Holocene hydrological changes in SE Iran, a key region between Indian Summer Monsoon and Mediterranean winter precipitation zones, as revealed from a lacustrine sequence from Lake Hamoun
Core sediments from dry lake bed of Hamoun, were subdivided into 3 main sedimentary units using a multi-proxy approach (e.g. petrography, grain size analysis, TOM% and CaCO3% determination) to reconstruct the palaeoenvironmet ...
The sedimentology and mineralogy of sand dunes of southern Neyshabour (Northeastern Iran)
Study of sedimentology and mineralogy properties of sandy sediments provides information on geomorphic processes and landscape evolution in arid environments. The objective of this study was to identify grain size distribution and mineralogical...
Depositional environments and ichnology of the deep-marine succession of the Amiran Formation (upper Maastrichtian–Paleocene), Lurestan Province, Zagros Fold–Thrust Belt, Iran
The paleoenvironmental significance of deep marine trace fossil assemblages in the upper Maastrichtian–Paleocene Amiran Formation has been done for the first time in Lurestan Province (NWZagros) from the Zagros Fold– Thrust ...
Late Holocene Caspian Sea Level Changes and its Impacts on Low Lying Coastal Evolution: a Multidisciplinary Case Study from South Southeastern Flank of the Caspian Sea
setting. This study aims to investigate the impacts of sea level oscillations on low-lying coasts of the southeastern flank of the Caspian Sea using sedimentological, paleontological and geophysical tools. The results show that barrier-lagoon development...
Depositional Controls on the Ichnology of Ordovician Wave-dominated Marine Facies: New Evidence from the Shirgesht Formation, Central Iran
The Lower Ordovician Shirgesht Formation in central Iran is composed of siliciclastic and
carbonate rocks deposited in diverse coastal and marine shelfal environments (tidal flat, lagoon,
shoreface, offshore-shelf ...
