چکیده
[1] We welcome the comment from Miller et al. [2012] and the opportunity to address their concerns and to expand on several aspects of the proposed geodynamic model in Wells et al. [2012]. Many of the points raised in the comment concern Late Cretaceous crustal anatexis and extension, aspects of the proposed geodynamic model that were developed in more detail in Wells and Hoisch [2008]. We address each of their three main points below.

Toossi et al. concluded that “Average gonad and bone marrow doses for North Khorasan, Boshehr and Hormozgan provinces were less than the corresponding values for normal area (2).” There are some facts on this report to be concerned. I agree that the detected levels might be high in the mentioned area, but th...

Geology of the Granby Fault, an Eocene Extensional Fault in Southeast British Columbia
The Grand Forks complex, northern equivalent to the Kettle dome in the United States (e,g, Cheney, 1977; Cheney, 1980; Rhodes and Cheney, 1981), is one of many exposures of high-grade metamorphic rocks of North American miogeoclinal affinity in the southern Omineca Belt (Figure 1). These structural culminations bounded by Tertiary normal faults, often collectively referred to as the Shuswap com...
متن کاملConstraints to Effective Use of Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) among Small-scale Farmers in Anambra State, Nigeria
The study was carried out in Anambra State, Nigeria. Questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample of one hundred and eight (108) small-scale farmers. Percentage, mean score, standard deviation and factor analysis were used for data analysis. The duration of the study was June 2009 and March, 2010. Results of the study indicated that the major constraints to effective use of ICTs by smal...
