Tectonic and Structural Framework of the Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt
Description
Key Features
- Includes valuable new data about one of the most famous collisional mountain ranges in the world, the Zagros fold–thrust belts, as a guide for other collisional ranges such as the Himalaya, the Alps, and the Andes, as they share common fundamental deformation mechanisms
- Provides research from geologists across the world, with the goal of understanding the unique dynamics and kinematics of the Zagros range
Readership
Oil companies, especially the ones working in the Middle East. So it could be an excellent reference or a text book for their short course programs. Because the Zagros is famous for its unique structures, it will be a very good reference for all structural geologists as well. This book could be used as one of the up-to-date reference books at universities in undergraduate and postgraduate levels
