As part of our research results by implying the integration between K-Ar dating and remote sensing :             

Chronology of the Basalts alteration in relation with The paleoclimatic changes:

                     Al Kwatli et al., 2012 , Quaternary International  (251 , 22-30)

The keynotes of this part:

-

• • Identifying basalt alteration patterns by landsat7 images: using ratio images and the principal component analyses (PCAs) techniques. 

  •  Dating the basaltic rocks by K-Ar dating method (technique Cassignol-Gillot, 1982) 

  •   A chronological model for the alteration process in relation with Quaternary paleoclimatic changes.

• Al Kwatli, M.A., Gillot, P.Y., Al Gharib, and Lefèvre, J.C., 2011. in press ( Quaternary International).The integration of K-Ar geochronology and remote sensing: mapping volcanic rocks and constraining the timing of alteration processes (The Al-Lajat Plateau, Syria).
