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...

large benthic foraminifera and dasycladalean green algae are the most common and important (micro) fossils in lower cretaceous shallow-water sediments of the tethyan realm. in this paper, we introduced such taxa and their importance in age dating of lower cretaceous strata in the kopet-dagh sedimentary basin. also, according to determinations of index taxa (fauna and flora) in this period, the ...

Homoleptic metal-sugar complexes were obtained in the form of MnIIand FeII-diacetoneglucose derivatives. The protolysis of [Mn3Mes6] and [Fe2Mes4] (Mes ) 2,4,6-Me3C6H2) with DAGH (1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylideneR-D-glucofuranose, diacetoneglucose) led to [M(DAG)2] [M ) Mn (1), Fe (2)]. Although monomeric in solution, they showed a different degree of aggregation in the solid state, iron being monom...

in this study we use the p receiver function technique to determine the moho depth and vp/vs ratio for 8 short period stations of qochan and mashhad seismic networks and map the variations of moho depth under kope dagh region. it is shown that a receiver function can provide a relatively good point measurement of moho depth under a short period station. the crustal thickness estimated from the ...
