Abstract The Sanandaj‐Sirjan zone of Iran is a northwest trending orogenic belt immediately
north of the Zagros suture, which represents the former position of the Neotethys Ocean. The …

We use calibrated earthquake relocations to reassess the distribution and kinematics of
faulting in the Zagros range, southwestern Iran. This is among the most seismically active …

The south Ardestan plutonic rocks constitute major outcrops in the central part of Iran's
Cenozoic magmatic belt and encompass a wide compositional spectrum from gabbro to …

There is considerable debate regarding the petrogenesis of K-rich magma, which are
believed to occur in subduction settings. The districts of the potassic rocks in the rear-arc of …

This study presents a three‐dimensional (3D) model of the crustal and uppermost mantle
shear wave velocity and radial anisotropy beneath the Iran Plateau constructed by Rayleigh …

The Iranian plate is part of the Alpine-Himalayan orogenic belt, which has been formed by
the continental collision between the Arabian and Eurasian plates. The present-day Iranian …

The crustal structure of Iraq was investigated through analyzing teleseismic data from 12
new seismic stations. Three seismic stations are located within the Zagros Fold‐Thrust Belt …

The collision between Arabia and Eurasia has had a significant impact on the Iranian
plateau, making it a prime location for investigating crustal deformation. The Neotethys …

In this paper, high-resolution map of the Gutenberg–Richter b-value and seismic moment-
release are provided for the Iranian Plateau using the unified and homogeneous part of the …

We present a new 2D crustal-scale model of the northwestern Iranian plateau based on
gravity–magnetic modeling along the 500 km long China–Iran Geological and Geophysical …
