متن يادداشت
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) lies in the north-eastern part of the Arabian Plate between the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. The country is heavily influenced by various tectonic movements. Although the surface geology of the UAE-Oman Mountains have been mapped and studied in detail, the structure of the eastern offshore of the UAE (Gulf of Oman) is still unknown. Geophysics, especially seismic, could provide an image of the subsurface and constrain the evolution of the basin and its sedimentary fill. This study used offshore seismic reflection data recently acquired in the northern UAE to determine the structure and sedimentation of this area.
