Fractal analysis of earthquakes, lineages and waterways are considered as one of the practical tools to evaluate tectonic activity. With the help of fractal analysis, structural maturity and tectonic dynamics can be evaluated. In this research, using fractal analysis and box counting method and fild studies, the measured fractal dimensions for the designed network of Alborz province were studie...

In this paper we discuss morpho-syntactic clues that can be used to facilitate terminological processing in Serbian. A method (called SRCE) for automatic extraction of multiword terms is presented. The approach incorporates a set of generic morpho-syntactic filters for recognition of term candidates, a method for conflation of morphological variants and a module for foreign word recognition. Mo...

The surface of Venus displays several tectonized terrains in which the morphologic characteristics of the original materials are almost completely erased by superposed tectonic structures whose large dimensions (»100 km) suggest formation related to mantle convection. The characteristics of these tectonized terrains are in contrast to volcanic units in which tectonic structures are less signifi...

We propose a modular approach to paraphrase and entailment-rule learning that addresses the morphosyntactic variability of lexical-syntactic templates. Using an entailment module that captures generic morpho-syntactic regularities, we transform every identified template into a canonical form. This way, statistics from different template variations are accumulated for a single template form. Add...

The Davisian model elucidates landscape development through an orogeny by denudation processes, postulating prolonged still-stand of a landmass following rapid tectonic uplift, ultimately resulting in a peneplain. The Penckian model emphasizes that landscape is shaped by concurrent tectonics and denudation, and includes the primary peneplain as an antithesis against the Davisian end-peneplain b...

The Puqu Fault is situated in Southern Tibet. It is influenced by the eastward extrusion of Northern Tibet and carries the clockwise rotation followed by the southward extrusion. Thus, the Puqu Fault is bounded by the principal dynamic zones and the tectonic evolution remains active alongside. This study intends to understand the tectonic activity in the Puqu Fault Region from the river profile...

The Ross orogen of Antarctica is one of Earth’s great Phanerozoic mountain belts. It is thought from igneous geochemistry, deformation patterns, and sedimentation history to be the result of late Neoproterozoic and early Paleozoic plate-margin convergence between paleo-Pacifi c oceanic lithosphere and continental lithosphere represented by the composite East Antarctic shield. Convergence along ...

selecting within local pomegranate accessions is the main method used to identify new cultivars. total of 76 pomegranate accessions from hatay, turkey, were collected and their morpho-pomological and chemical characteristics were determined. the results showed that there was significant diversity among the accessions in terms of fruit quality parameters. several accessions were notable for thei...

The Alboran Basin and the surrounding Betic-Rif Cordilleras (see Fig. 1) constitute an arc-shaped thrust-belt that exempli®es contemporaneous internal extension and frontal thrusting in an overall compressional setting. The complex tectonic evolution of the region is the result of ongoing convergence between Africa and Eurasia since late Mesozoic. Until the amalgamation of Iberia with Europe, f...

The rocks of the Wadi Umm Gheig/El-Shush area in the central Eastern Desert of Egypt form part of the Nubian Shield, a component of the Neoproterozoic Pan-African Orogeny. The rocks have been divided into three units: (i) low-grade metamorphosed rocks, which consist of metavolcanic rocks interleaved with slices of ophiolitic melange; (ii) high-grade metamorphic rocks, which consist of syn-tecto...
