Beschreibung
This book provides insights on new geological, tectonic, and climatic developments in India through a time progression from the Archean to the Anthropocene that are captured via authoritative entries from experts in earth sciences. This volume aims to bring graduate students and researchers up to date on the geodynamic evolution of the Indian Plate; concepts that have so far resulted in a rather uneven treatment of the subject at different institutions.
Maximizes understanding on all the major geological provinces of the Indian Plate
Attempts to track and examine the evolution of the Indian landmass through various supercontinent assemblies
Delves into aspects of the dynamics of the Indian Ocean dynamics as well as those of past monsoons
