the nw-se trending zagros fold and thrust belt extends for about 1,800 km from a location some 300 km se of the east anatolian fault in ne turkey to the strait of hormuz where the north-south trending zendan-minab-palami fault system (zmp) separates the zagros belt from the makran accretionary prism. the ne limit of the zagros belt is marked by the main zagros reverse fault which is rotated abo...

In all three domains of life, DNA replication initiates on defined genome sites, termed replication origins. In bacteria, replication typically initiates from a single replication origin (oriC). In eukaryotic genomes, replication initiates from significantly more replication origins, ranging from hundreds in yeast to tens of thousands in human (Gao et al., 2012). Within the archaeal domain, mul...

Identifying functional modules is believed to reveal most cellular processes. There have been many computational approaches to investigate the underlying biological structures (Bader and Hogue, 2003; Dhillon et al., 2005; Krogan et al., 2006; Ramadan et al., 2005; Xiong et al., 2005; Zhang et al., 2004). A spectral clustering method plays a critical role identifying functional modules in a yeas...

Molybdenum adsorption behavior was investigated on various crystalline and x-ray amorphous Al and Fe oxide minerals, clay minerals, CaC@, and arid-zone calcareous and noncalcareous s soils. Molybdenum adsorption on botb Al and Fe oxides exhibited a maximum at low pH extending to about pH 4 to 5. Above pH 5 adsorption decreased rapidly, with little adsorption occurring above pH 8. Molybdenum ads...

Processes of cobalt (Co) entrainment from shelf sediments over the Kerguelen Plateau were studied during the KEOPS (Kerguelen Ocean Plateau compared Study) in order to explain the exceptionally high dissolved cobalt concentrations that have been measured in the surface waters above the Kerguelen Plateau, and in intermediate and deep waters above its eastern slope. Lateral advection and dissolut...
