The SE coast of Iran is great economic and environmental importance. Global climate change affects this coastline through sea level rise (SLR), compounded by a decrease in sediment budgets coastal areas. This study developed Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI) for the using satellite, instrumental field data. Eight risk variables were defined: slope, regional elevation, mean tidal range, signific...

Introduction The Coastal terrace is a unique tectonic complication in Iran and covers more than half of the Oman Sea coast from Jask to Quatre. These beaches are constantly rising and this has greatly influenced the morphology of the formation and deformation of Makran coasts marine terrace, which can be seen in the formation of coastal cliffs in these areas. But one of the important quest...

in western coast of gujarat destructive tsunamis have been generated from large earthquakes along the makran coast, chagos ridge and kutch region in the past. although the historical record is incomplete, it is believed that such tsunamis were destructive on the coasts of india, pakistan, iran, oman and sri lanka and possibly had significant effects on islands. the most significant tsunamigenic...

using global free air gravity and topography data, first we have calculated a bouguer anomaly (ba) map for iranian plateau and then computed the residual isostasy anomaly map under the airy-heiskannen assumption. the term residual is used as to reflect the assumption of local isostatic compensation in contrast to a regional isostatic compensation. the value with which the gravity effect of the ...
