This study provides an integrated view of the growth patterns and factors that controlled the evolution of the Gulf of Cadiz continental margin based on studies of the tectonic, sedimentologic and oceanographic history of the area. Seven sedimentary regimes are identified, but there are more extensive descriptions of the late Cenozoic regimes because of the larger data base. The regimes of the ...

We describe the identification and characterization of novel homing endonucleases using genome database mining to identify putative target sites, followed by high throughput activity screening in a bacterial selection system. We characterized the substrate specificity and kinetics of these endonucleases by monitoring DNA cleavage events with deep sequencing. The endonuclease specificities revea...

ghalajeh synclinal is extended on the south of kermanshah province from northwest to southeast. considering the permanent tectonic movements in quaternary and current age in studied region, the alluvial fans of the region is a good reason for evaluation of such movements. the morphology and morphometry properties of alluvial fans are severely under the effect of the tectonic activities. the aim...

study area is located in west of iran with relatively rough topography. lithologic units in the region belong from jurassic and cretaccous till recent era. the study area of the alvand mountain region is related to the tectonic zone of the sanandaj-sirjan region and the area dominant neo-tectonic regime appears to be compressional-extensional type. one of the identification tools to find out th...

The study area is situated in the Middle part of the Tabas Block. It contains outcrops of rocks that formed along longitudinal faults in Early Cimmerian orogenic phase. The basin subsided along these faults from the Late Triassic to Early Cretaceous, which include two sedimentary cycles. A sedimentary cycle, related to Upper Triassic to Bajocian is known as Shemshak group. Another sedimentary c...
