The study of Quaternary terraces in the south of the coastal chain, safita and Marmaritadistrict, constitute a great importance in understanding the geological and structural conditions, that prevailed in the region in that period. The rivers Abrash andAL-Arousplayed a major role in the formation of these quaternary terraces from the lower Quaternarytill Holocene. These terraces were distributed on a narrow space and points spread over the basins of the rivers in the south of the coastal chain. The high of these terraces, between tens to hundreds meters, are a strong indicator of the advancement of theuplift movements affecting the region in recent times, compared with the uplift of that terraces of other important riverssuch the Euphrates and Nahr El-Kabir-Ash-Shemaliriver,according to thestratigraphy and lithology studies, using GPStechniques to determinethe sites high et compare these values with global data, and then appreacitethe tectonic effect on the region. A numerical model tectonicactivity– terraces uplift is proposed.

The study of volcanic dykes geometry in the southern Syrian coastal range shows that some of them are related to a tensional tectonic event, Albian dykes, and others are related to a strike-slip stress field like Pliocene dykes. Orientation of dykes is average between E-W to N-S with maximal direction of N 130- N 145. Drawing of strike-slip stress field depending upon dykes orientation shows important deviation in σ1 strike from NW-SE to E-W in the vicinity of Levant fault during Pliocene time (4.4-5.4My)
The aim of this research is to identified the tectonic evolution of Naher Al-Kabir Al-Shimaly Basin from tectonic subsidence curve witch calculated from Lattakia1 well data. Tectonic subsidence was identified in lower-middle Jurassic en relation o f opening of East Mediterranean basin. A subsidence is occurred in Cenomaniane, after a stage of uplift in late Jurassic-lower Cretaceous en relation to fold and erosion known at regional scale.
The study of fracture in Kadmous and Safita showed several fracturing directions, originally related to the tectonic structure of the studied zone, especially faults. A group of dominant principal fractures, with a direction of NW-SE, a group of less importance with direction of NE-SW, and a secondary group of N-S direction, have been determined.
Annabk anticline lies in the westernmost side of the Palmyride chain, which is located in the northern Arabian Plate. It is a 70 km long, NE-SW oriented asymmetrical anticline, belonging to the southern part of the Palmyrides. The stratigraphical column cropping out in the domain of this anticline consists of Cretaceous and Paleogene strata of marine facies, together with Neogene and Quaternary continental deposits. The aim of this study is to investigate the tectonic evolution of this area, by reconstructing its paleostress history, through analysing the brittle deformations, which were recorded in the outcropping rocks.
The paper discussed the lack of the river tourism development on the River Alasi banks although it has a lot of opportunities for an appropriate riverine tourism, in particular of Hama city, where many recreational and tourism potential are exist. Thus the research studied the river tourism to the emerged within international cities, which depends on multiple natural and human factors located on the banks of the river, where the luxury tourist boats and several types of Sports River had been increased The paper aimed to introduce a field inventory of the tourist potential the banks of the Alasi River through a field survey identifying the possibilities that exist on the banks of the River Alasi in Hama city that can be used as a key-core to the fluvial tourism. Comparing potentials and riverine tourism requirements derived from studying worldwide models with the status of the riverbanks in the area of research.
