This study was conducted in the northeastern area of the left bank of Shatt al-Arab left riverside north of Basrah Governorate of Iraq. Suitable satellite imagery for the study area was collected in July 13, 2023 coinciding with the time of field sample collection. The selected imagery underwent spectral correction followed by classification of the...
The worsening of global warming due to burning fossil fuels and the global energy crisis have led to an urgent need for renewable and clean energy sources that have little impact on the environment. One of the most important and largest alternative energy sources is marine waves, which have enormous energy that can be utilized using the correct and...
The Abu Abdullah canal, an essential part of the Garma River, serves as the feeder to the water injection station for the Basrah Oil Company's southern region's oil fields, playing a significant strategic. This study thoroughly investigates the sedimentation rate and distribution processes within this critical canal. The canal was built in the 1980...
The Fatha Formation is a significant stratigraphic unit that was deposited during the Miocene; its sediments covered the basin from the north to the south of Iraq. Six oil wells within four oilfields were chosen for the current study. Both types of samples (core and cutting) were prepared to extract the existing fossils. Forty-two foraminifera spec...
Received: 11 March 2022 The marine geophysical survey was conducted using Sub Bottom Profiler and Side Scan Sonar techniques, integrated by petrographic analyses including grain size distribution, mineralogical and fauna analyses of the Hacham island and surrounding area. The island is located in the south part of the Khor Al Zubair channel southwe...
Sawa Lake is an abnormal lake in Iraq. It was characterized by the high degree of salinity among the Iraqi marshes. It is a euhyline water body of no inflow and outflow. The lake is an elongated closed basin with no channel of surface water available to it. The results of the present study are showed three types of fauna, the biggest numbers of fau...

Abstract: Abundance and distribution of fauna have been investigated in the subsurface sediments for the eight stations, these are: Abo flos, Ras Al-Besha , Khor Al-Umaya , Khor Shitana ,Umm Qaser , Khor Zubair, Kutaiban and AL-Faw. They located at the south of Mesopotamia plain. A reconnaissance survey in the studied area showed that the distribut...
Quaternary represents an important and mysterious part of the sediments of southern Iraq, as it contains a many types of sediment. A considerable number of species of foraminifera, Ostracoda and Mollusks are recorded from three boreholes, located at Faw, Khor Al-Zubair and Um-Qaser, with a depth that reaches 20 m, including some of new species. Bas...
Three boreholes were taken from Al-Faw town, Basrah, South Iraq; at a depth of about 29m, from an area in the flood plain of Shatt Al-Arab River. The cores were constituted essentially of silty clay and clayey silt which predominates the recent sediments. They are characterized by gray dark thin layer of silty clay between
16-17 m. The results indi...
