chaldoran area in nw of iran has mesozoic oceanic crust basement. the studied rocks of this region can be divided into three groups: ophiolitic gabbros and pillow lavas, ophiolitic volcanoclastics and eocene lava flows. ophiolitic mafic rocks show continental volcanic arc natures and eocene lava flow shows oib-like nature. during the mesozoic,the chaldoran region was situated in the active cont...

tween Eurasia and Africa that result in a primary eastward-directed, low-velocity current flow along the mid-Cretaceous Eurasian, northern Tethys margin. This conclusion appears to be at odds with sedimentologic and paleontologic field evidence (2, 3) obtained from the Helvetic tectonic unit that is exposed in the northern Alps and represents the former northern Tethys margin in southern Europe...

1 The effects of tree diversity on herbivore–enemy interactions have received relatively little attention and even fewer studies have compared the relative influence of tree intraversus interspecific diversity on such dynamics. 2 We evaluated the effects of mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) genotypic diversity and tree species diversity on parasitoid attack and species richness associated with P...

The Kopet Dagh mountains in NE Iran exhibit a 7-km-thick continuous sedimentary sequence recording detritus from exposed surrounding terranes the last 175 Ma. This work presents multi-disciplinary geochronologic and provenance analysis an attempt to identify date major geologic events along northern segment of Tethys reconstruct regional tectonic history Gondwana-related rifting until Alpine or...
