This research work introduces the Early Triassic, Late Triassic-Early Jurassic, and Early Cretaceous silica-rich sand levels at east and central Alborz, Kopeh-Dagh, and Central Iran, and compares them with the Permian silica-rich sand level in the Chirouk mine at east Iran. Ghoznavi and Gheshlaq loose sand in Alborz (Early Triassic-Early Jurassic), Soh quartzite in Central Iran (Early Triassic...

The Alborz mountain range in northern Iran is part of the active and seismic Alpide belt, where assessing hazards crucial due to region’s history large instrumental earthquakes destructive background. Moment rate estimation, which quantifies tectonic activity, offers a novel approach understanding energy potential regions. In this study, regional perspective employed investigate maximum horizon...

Carboniferous strata in the Alborz mountains consist of calcareous rich fossils the main part of which is composed of rugose corals. There have been few studies carried out on corals so far. In this paper, a new subfamily, genus and eight new species of rugose corals from Mobarak limestones in the central Alborz mountains are introduced

کانسار فسفات دلیر در 57 کلیومتری جنوب غربی شهر چالوس استان مازندران و زون البرز مرکزی دارد. میزبان این ذخیره سازند سلطانیه است که یکی از مهم‌ترین سازندهای رسوبی ایران است. نتایج آنالیز پراش اشعه ایکس (XRD) مطالعات میکروسکوپ نوری الکترونی بر روی نمونه‌های نشان داد آپاتیت، کلسیت، کوارتز دولومیت کانی‌های اصلی فرعی شامل مونتموریلونیت، پیریت باریت مقادیر به همراه جزیی سیدریت، روتیل، ایلیت گوتیت هستن...

to reach the desirable ecosystem management, determining the animal dietselection, which is one of the components of rangeland ecosystem, is important. therefore, inorder to determine the grazing behavior and diet selection of sheep and goat, the uplandrangeland of northern part of alborz was selected. in this study, the first weeks of july andaugust of 2009 were chosen for the grazing period o...

Transverse basement (TB) faults are important structures in the mountain belts or sedimentary basins influencing various aspects of them. The origin of these faults is diverse, but their effect on the shape and configuration of continental margins is characteristics. The Western Alborz range that borders the South Caspian basin to southwest is a complex range with principal faults and known ear...

carboniferous strata in the alborz mountains consist of calcareous rich fossils the main part of which is composed of rugose corals. there have been few studies carried out on corals so far. in this paper, a new subfamily, genus and eight new species of rugose corals from mobarak limestones in the central alborz mountains are introduced

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) or kala-azar mainly affects children in endemic areas. This study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence of VL using direct agglutination test (DAT) in children living in rural districts of Alborz Province located 30 km from Tehran capital city of Iran. Multi-stage cluster random sampling was applied. Blood samples were randomly collected from 1,007 children u...
