Neotectonic Indications in Iraq (North of the Arabian Plate): Analytical Overview
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Iraqi territory is located in the northeastern part of the Arabian Plate covering the collision zone with the Eurasian (Iranian) Plate in the northeast. This collision, which is still active with convergent tectonics, has caused deformation in the rocks of the Zagros Mountains with different intensities. The deformation intensity decreases southwestwards with exerted stresses from the collision in the NE–SW direction. Depending on the deformation intensity and other tectonic factors, the Iraqi territory is divided into three main tectonic units, these are from NE to SW: (1) Shalair Terrane, (2) Outer Platform, and (3) Inner Platform. Accordingly, the Inner Platform is less deformed as compared to other tectonic zones. Neotectonic evidence has been documented across all tectonic zones of Iraq; even within the Inner Platform which was assumed to be a tectonically stable zone. This study presents different Neotectonic evidence and their role in updating the tectonic framework of Iraq, confirming that the so-called Stable Shelf or Inner Platform units, which are considered tectonically to be undeformed are deformed by Neotectonic activity.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
