ABSTRACT: Atrak River region,
northeast Iran is a quaternary tectonically active region. There are many
geologic structures that they are formed by the collision of the Arabian and
Eurasian plates. This area has extended from north east Iran to the of kope
dagh zone. The study area is Atrak river basin and it has been divided to 56
Sub-basin for calculation of 6 geomorphic indices. Finally, this region was
classified in 4 relative tectonic activity classes.
