نحوه تشکیل و میکرومورفولوژی اریدی‌سول‌هال گچی و نمکی منطقه نوق رفسنجان در ارتباط با سطوح ژئومورفولوژی
Gypsiferous Aridisols are of great importance and extent in arid and semi-arid environments. There is a close relationship between soil genesis and landscape positions. This study aimed to determine the genesis and classification of gypsiferous soils and to investigate the relationship between micro-and macro-morphology of gypsum crystals and geomorphic positions in Rafsanjan area. The study ar...

متن کاملPrecision Topography of Pluvial Features in Western Nevada as Analogs for Possible Pluvial Landforms on Mars
Introduction: The possible presence of confined bodies of standing water on early Mars has been postulated for many years, both as large oceans [e.g., 1-5] and as lakes associated with impact crater or intercrater basins [e.g., 6-10]. The northern ocean hypothesis was tested using Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) elevations along two suggested shorelines, resulting in a fairly poor geopotent...
متن کاملEquilibrium-Line Altitudes of Late Quaternary Glaciers in the Zardkuh Mountain, Iran
Equilibrium-line altitudes (ELAs) of former glaciers in the Zardkuh Mountain of the Zagros Mountain Range were reconstructed from glacial-geologic data on former ice limits by using various methods. In the study area various types of glacial landforms such as outwash fans, moraines and well developed glacial cirques are observed. The results suggest that ELA were depressed 1433 m below to prese...
متن کاملSurvey of geomorphic and morphotectonic indixes to assessment active tectonics in Abdoughi area, North east of Yazd, Central Iran
Morphotectonic is one of the new reconition methods of tectonic movements and earthquakes knowledge. Study and measurement of landscapes and forms which made by active tectonics are important objects in morphology science. Active tectonic movements have recorded in the morphology of rivers, drainages, alluvial fans and mountain fronts in a region. Research area is located between 55° 30' -57° 0...
