  • Iom Emergency Needs Assessments Post February 2006 Displacement in Iraq 1 January 2009 Monthly Report
    IOM EMERGENCY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS POST FEBRUARY 2006 DISPLACEMENT IN IRAQ 1 JANUARY 2009 MONTHLY REPORT Following the February 2006 bombing of the Samarra Al-Askari Mosque, escalating sectarian violence in Iraq caused massive displacement, both internal and to locations abroad. In coordination with the Iraqi government’s Ministry of Displacement and Migration (MoDM), IOM continues to assess Iraqi displacement through a network of partners and monitors on the ground. Most displacement over the past five years (since 2003) occurred in 2006 and has since slowed. However, displacement continues to occur in some locations and the humanitarian situation of those already displaced is worsening. Some Iraqis are returning, but their conditions in places of return are extremely difficult. The estimated number of displaced since February 2006 is more than 1.6 million individuals1. SUMMARY OF CURRENT IRAQI DISPLACEMENT AND RETURN: Returns While an estimated 1.6 million individuals are displaced in Iraq, returns continue to grow. This is particularly the case in Baghdad. Many returnees are coming back to find destroyed homes and infrastructure in disrepair. Buildings, pipe and electrical networks, and basic public services such as health care centers are all in need of rehabilitation to meet the needs of returning IDP and refugee families. Transportation for families who wish to return also continues to be an issue. Some families wish to return but do not have the financial resources to travel with their belongings to their places of origin. MoDM has offered 500,000 Iraqi Dinar (IQD), or approximately 432 USD to IDP families returning from another governorate, and they have offered 250,000 IQD for families returning within the same governorate.

  • Survey of Infiltration Karez in Northern Iraq: History and Current Status of Underground Aqueducts
    IQ/2009/SC/RP/1 September 2009 Original: English Survey of Infiltration Karez in Northern Iraq: History and Current Status of Underground Aqueducts A report prepared for UNESCO by Dale Lightfoot Department of Geography, Oklahoma State University Executive Summary Subterranean aqueducts, known as karez in Iraq, were identified, mapped and placed in historical context to document this important part of Iraq’s cultural heritage and to provide guidance for plans to rehabilitate karez systems in Iraq. Information was collected from existing karez inventories held by the Federal Government of Iraq (GOI) and the Kurdistan Regional Government of Iraq (KRG), historic cadastral maps which recorded the location of many karez, and through interviews and personal observation during several weeks of fieldwork conducted across northern Iraq. This work has documented 683 infiltration karez throughout the northern governorates (Dohuk, Ninewah, Erbil, Kirkuk, and Sulaymaniyah). The karez in this region have been adversely impacted by drought and excessive well pumping. Almost 40% of karez documented—and 70% of those that were still flowing five years ago—have been abandoned since the onset of drought in 2005. As a result of this decline, over 100,000 people have been forced to evacuate their homes since 2005. The study identified 116 karez that were still being used in summer 2009, but all have diminished flow, placing an estimated 36,000 people at risk of displacement. The recent decline of karez and the resulting migration can be considered to be an early warning signal for other serious problems concerning the future water supply in the area. The study recommends urgent intervention to restore the karez in 50 communities.

  • Tectonostratigraphic Overview of the Zagros Suture Zone, Kurdistan Region, Northeast Iraq
    GeoArabia, 2012, v. 17, no. 4, p. 109-156 Gulf PetroLink, Bahrain Tectonostratigraphic overview of the Zagros Suture Zone, Kurdistan Region, Northeast Iraq Basim Al-Qayim, Azad Omer and Hemin Koyi ABSTRACT The northwestern segment of the Zagros Orogenic Belt of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq includes the Zagros Suture Zone which is consisting of allochthonous Tethyan Triassic–Eocene thrust sheets. The zone is bounded by the Zagros Main Reverse Fault in the northeast, and the Zagros Thrust Front in the southwest. Parts of this zone’s rocks are represented by stacks of thrust mega- sheets obducted over the autochthonous Cretaceous–Cenozoic sequence of the Arabian Plate margin. Each sheet represents a specific Tethyan tectono- stratigraphic facies, and includes (from older to younger): isolated Triassic carbonate platforms (Avroman Limestone), Jurassic carbonate imbricates (Chia Gara, Sargelu and other formations), radiolarites (Qulqula Group), sedimentary mélange (sedimentary-volcanic units of the Qulqula Group), ophiolites (Mawat and Penjwin ultramafics complexes), and Cenozoic fore-arc volcano- sedimentary sequences (Walash Group). Petrography, facies interpretation and lithostratigraphic correlation of these allochthons along four traverses across the Zagros Suture Zone of the examined area indicate that they evolved during the closure of the Neo-Tethys Ocean. Their stacking pattern and tectonic association resulted from two important events: the Late Cretaceous obduction processes, and the Late Miocene–Pliocene collision, uplift, folding and suturing between the Arabian Plate and the Sanandaj-Sirjan Block of Iran. Based on these field observations and by using the model of the Iranian Zagros evolution, a tectonic scenario is proposed to explain the history and evolution of the Zagros Suture Zone in this area.
