makran subduction zone (msz) offshore of iran and pakistan is one of the most tsunamigenic sources in the indian ocean. historically, the msz has generated some tsunamigenic earthquakes like that of 28 november 1945 with the death tool of more than 4000 people along the coasts of iran, pakistan, india, and oman. in this study, the tsunami hazard associated with the msz is investigated. at first...

This study examined the relationships between topographic structure and submarine geomorphology, sediment thickness, geophysical anomaly fields, geological settings tectonic lineament stretching of Arabian Sea region, Carlsberg Ridge morphology, Makran Trench depths by GMT. The included spatial analysis high-resolution datasets (GEBCO, EGM96, GlobSed) geomorphological modeling 300km-width cross...

The Makran Subduction Zone is the primary seismic/tsunami hazard of northwestern Indian Ocean, but little known its on-shore seismic structure. We derived a shear wave velocity model extending to 100 km depth beneath ∼400 km-long profile oriented parallel convergence vector Arabian Sea Plate. Receiver function/surface analysis shows that average structure in coastal region comprises ∼22–28 km-t...

this study presents, a comprehensive dataset that documents and provides a new and updated checklist of the freshwater fishes of the poorly known area of iran including makran and mashkid river basins in the east and south eastern iran. the list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained as a result of extensive field expeditions, examination of ichthyological ...
