An international research team has used seismic imaging to identify two slab tears beneath the Zagros–Makran transition zone located in southeastern Iran near the Strait of Hormuz. The findings suggest that the tears formed through distinct geodynamic mechanisms and may have influenced regional tectonic deformation and magmatic activity.
