The latest volume in the Developments in Structural Geology and Tectonics series from Elsevier, Tectonic and Structural Framework of the Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt is a collection of the most up-to date research and developments in the unique tectonic and structural geology of the Zagros. The Zagros fold-thrust belt is famous among geologists and is one of the most-studied terrains in the world. Because of its unique structures, the Zagros orogeny is challenging for many researchers and experts; this book is the essential reference that collates the newest data and fully explores that aspect. In addition, because the Zagros range is a potential source for hydrocarbons, it is of interest to petroleum geologists and exploration companies worldwide. This book is an essential, cutting-edge reference for oil companies, structural geologists, and students at both the undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Zielgruppe

<p>The book is much needed for 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. </p>
