Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on research in earth sciences, particularly in Iran. Studies investigate sedimentology, provenance, and depositional environments of various geological formations. Geochemical analyses are used to delineate anomalies of elements like rare earth elements and lithium. The journal also covers active tectonics, neotectonics, and seismological characteristics, including site effects and earthquake generation. Mineralogy, petrography, and the application of spectroscopic methods for mineral characterization are featured. Additionally, research addresses hydrogeochemistry, groundwater quality, and the engineering geological properties of soils. Exploration techniques for mineral and hydrocarbon deposits are also presented.
