The Zagros Fold Belt and Himalayan mountain systems represent two of the most significant deformation provinces on Earth. Both preserve large-scale structural organization, active tectonic expression, and long-lived geological persistence.
This paper evaluates continuity between these systems through deformation gradients, fold-belt architecture, fault persistence, basin relationships, topographic organization, and regional geological coherence.
Reference systems include the Zagros Fold Belt, Makran region, Baluchistan structural provinces, Hindu Kush systems, and Himalayan deformation front.
The objective is to determine whether measurable geological relationships remain observable across the intervening regions separating these major deformation systems.
Within ABC Sequencing, the Zagros-to-Himalaya pathway provides an opportunity to evaluate continuity at continental scale.
The framework emphasizes measurable persistence and structural organization rather than assumed connection.
This paper evaluates whether measurable continuity persists between the Zagros Fold Belt and Himalayan deformation systems across intervening geological domains.
