The Geology of Syria
Recent Evolution and Seismicity of the Mediterranean Region
Author: E. Boschi
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401120161
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
The Mediterranean is one of the most studied regions of the world. In spite of this, a considerable spread of opinions exists about the geodynamic evolution and the present tectonic setting of this zone. The difficulty in recognizing the driving mechanisms of deformation is due to a large extent to the complex distribution in space and time of tectonic events, to the high number of parameters involved in this problem and to the scarce possibility of carrying out quantitative estimates of the deformation implied by the various geodynamic hypotheses. However, we think that a great deal of the present ambiguity could be removed if there were more frequent and open discussions among the scientists who are working on this problem. The meeting ofERICE was organized to provide an opportunity in this sense. In making this effort, we were prompted by the conviction that each step towards the understanding of the Mediterranean evolution is of basic importance both for its scientific consequences and for the possibleimplicationsfor society. It is well known, for instance, that the knowledge ofongoing tectonic processes in a given region and of their connection with seismic activity may lead to the recognition of middle long term precursors of strong earthquakes. The few cases of tentative earthquake prediction in the world occurred where information on large scale seismotectonic behavior was available. This led to identify the zones prone to dangerous shocks, where observations of short-term earthquake precursors were then concentrated.

Siliceous, Phosphatic and Clauconitic Sediments of the Tertiary and Mesozoic
Author: Akihito Iijima
Publisher: VSP
ISBN: 9789067641753
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
This Proceedings volume contains 14 papers from the symposium ''Siliceous, Phosphatic and Glauconitic Sediments of the Tertiary and Mesozoic'', which was held during the 29th International Geological Congress, Kyoto, Japan, 24 August--3 September, 1992. The first part of this volume consists of papers dealing with Tertiary biosiliceous sediments of the Pacific Rim, starting in the northwest. The second part of the volume is composed of papers dealing with Tertiary and Mesozoic phosphatic rocks and phosphatebearing sequences, in particular of the eastern Pacific Rim and the Middle East. The articles serve to emphasize the similarities and differences between the Pacific Neogene successions and the Tethyan Mesozoic sequences of the Middle East.

On the Geology of Syria
Author: Ahmad Bilal
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 152758965X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
This book serves to contribute to a further understanding of our globe, and offers a number of insights into the field of geology through its use of various examples. As it shows, the Syrian outcrops present a highly diverse field for geologists, with their sedimentary and volcano-magmatic rocks and their fluid inclusions. Syria is located at the meeting point of Eurasian, African, and Arabic plates, and, consequently, it is underlain by an active global structure, the Dead Sea Fault Zone (DSFZ), also known as the Levant fault, making this area of even further interest for the geologist.

Book Description
Lithosphere Dynamics and Sedimentary Basins of the Arabian Plate and Surrounding Areas
Author: François Roure
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319447262
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
This book focuses on the links between deep earth (mantle) and shallow processes in areas of active tectonics in the Arabian Plate and Surrounding Areas. It also provides key information for energy resources in these areas. The book is a compilation of selected papers from the Task Force of the International Lithosphere Program (ILP). It comprises a set of research studies from the Middle East, North Africa and the Mediterranean domain focusing on (1) the architecture, geodynamic evolution and modelling of the Red Sea rift system and its surroundings, and tectonics and sedimentation in the Gulf of Corinth, (2) the crustal architecture and georesources of the North Algerian Offshore, (3) Reservoirs, aquifers and fluid transfers in Saudi Basins, Petroleum systems and salt tectonics in Yemen and (4) Cretaceous-Eocene foreland inversions in Saudi Arabia.
