Ophiolitic rocks in the southeastern part of the Zagros Orogenic Belt can be separated from southwest to northeast, into two groups: the Neyriz ophiolites and the Naien–Shahrebabak–Baft ophiolites. The southeast sector of Sanandaj-Sirjan wasdelimited by the two nearly synchronous ophiolitic belts in its southwestern and northeastern margins. In this study, new ophiolitic formation models were u...

in order to study the effect of genotype × environment interaction and stability of sugar beet varieties, four cultivars, including shirine, zarghan, laetitia and 7112 hybrid were planted in five major areas near to sugar beet factory of biseton as kangavar, sahneh, chamchamal, dinavar and ravansar for three years (2006-2008) using a randomized complete block designs, with three replications. a...

The leaves of Arum conophalloides (Araceae) were used in some west areas of Iran as a dessert. The aerial parts of the herb were collected from Sahneh Mountains, Kermanshah Province, west of Iran and was hydrodistilled by Clevenger-type apparatus. Composition of the essential oil was determined by GC and GC/MS. Totally, 18 components (92% of total essential oil) were identified. The oil contain...

Sheeted dike complexes, in which dike intrudes dike without intermediate screens of gabbro or pillow lava, have long been considered key features of oceanic lithosphere and ophiolites formed in extensional environments. The presence of a sheeted complex implies an approximate balance between spreading rate and magma supply, such that there is just enough melt to fill newly formed fractures prod...

Rocks ranging in composition from trondhjemite to diorite (plagiogranites) have been recovered from ocean ridges and are common constituents of ophiolites. Velocities and densities of diorite and trondhjemite from the MidAtlantic Ridge are shown to differ significantly from similar properties of metadolerite and gabbro. Compressional (V p) and shear (V s.>velocities of plagiogranites are relati...
