The sequence of the coastal siliciclastic facies Paleocene-Eocene Zagros Foreland Basin is well exposed in Chwarta-Mawat area, north Sulaimani Governorate, northeastern Iraq. According to previous studies, this designated as Red Beds Series (RBS), consisting more than 2000 m fine and coarse red grey clastics. present study found recently recognized lithologies (RRLs) about 100 thick inside seri...

Changes in Carbon Sequestration and some Edaphic Traits Forest Types of CEntral Zagros (Case Study: The forests Lorestan Province)

Horizontal and Vertical Structure of Northern Zagros Forests in Relation to Traditional Forestry System (Case study: Havare- Khol Forests)

An approach combining small-angle X-ray solution scattering (SAXS) data with coarse-grained (CG) simulations is developed to characterize the assembly states of Hck, a member of the Src-family kinases, under various conditions in solution. First, a basis set comprising a small number of assembly states is generated from extensive CG simulations. Second, a theoretical SAXS profile for each state...

The Influence of Competition on some Structural Features Persian Oak (Quercus brantii Lindl var.persica) Trees in Zagros Forest (Case study:Hashtad- Pahlu,Lorestan)

New simplified tectonic models and depositional history of Late Cretaceous rocks are established in a part of Zagros Orogenic Belt that is located in the Northeastern Iraq. These rocks constutes the most important Cretaceous oil reservoir in the Middle East. The dependent tools are petrography, field study and the concept of drowning phases. This concept is relatively new and accurate in explan...

While the effect of soil temperature and moisture on soil CO2 efflux (Ec) has been widely investigated, the relationship between Ec and soil carbon (C), root, and stand parameters has not been comprehensively examined or quantified across extensive spatial and temporal scales. We measured Ec in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) stands located on the South Carolina Coastal Plain across sites, seaso...

Fine particulate matter is, on account of its aerodynamic properties and typical composition (especially diesel particulate matter and carbonaceous particles) the particulate pollutant potentially most harmful to cultural heritage, representing an aesthetic issue and an agent of chemical degradation simultaneously. This paper reviews the current knowledge of the life-cycle of fine particulates,...
