the present study carried out to identify neo tectonic activity of the gorgan river basin in golestan province, in north of eastern alborz range is investigated by four geomorphic indices including the stream– gradient index (sl), drainage basin asymmetry (af), reveres symmetry of topography (t) and mountain front sinuosity (smf). result from the analysis is accumulated and expressed as an in...

the study area, paykola anticline, is located in the southwestern part of kermanshah province. the aim of this research is to evaluate the geomorphological indexes of active tectonics in paykola anticline as well as to study the effect of tectonic in the form and direction of geomorphological landforms. to achieve the aim of study, the lithological and tectonic characteristics of study area wer...

We have compiled the distribution of active faults and folds in the HimalayanTibetan orogen and its immediate surrounding regions into a web-based digital map. The main product of this study is a compilation of active structures that came from those documented in the literature and from our own interpretations based on satellite images and digital topographic data. Our digital tectonic map allo...

This paper provides a brief review of airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data for characterizing linear and planar geomorphic markers in tectonic geomorphology, including traces of active faults and surface deformation caused by earthquakes. Challenges and opportunities of LiDAR for the study of tectonic geomorphology and coseismic deformation are also discussed.

iran is well known for having countless historical and instrumental records of tectonic events. shahriary catchment, as a study area, is part of the zagros collision seismic province. this research aimed to introduce a new method which is useful in identifying the relative active tectonic events of an area. the research method was designed in order to calculate the relative active tectonic inde...

introduction tectonic of binaloud mountain ranges is controled by thrust faults system and folds related to these faults. parts of this mountain ranges and neyshabour plain is as study area in north eastern iran and between latitudes 36° 11´ 00 to 36° 30´ 00 and longitudes 58° 35´ 00 to 59° 00´ 00. in this paper we first study morphometric indices in this area then analyze drainages and allovia...
