Tewari H., Prasad B.Rajendra, Kumar P. Structure and Tectonics of the Indian Continental Crust and Its Adjoining Region: Deep Seismic Studies

2nd Edition. — Elsevier, 2018. — 260 p. — ISBN: 978-0-12-813685-0.This book, Second Edition, collates essential data from seismic studies of Earth’s crust across India, offering an essential understanding of the tectonic development of the Indian subcontinent. Seismic studies have been carried out in various parts of India since 1972, recording crust-related seismic data for determination of velocity-depth configuration and determination of structural patterns. The book examines the details of these studies, including their synthesis and global applications. The book presents both background and applications in one cohesive volume for researchers and students of geophysics and geology.Key FeaturesPresents all the information and metadata of the Indian continental crust and its neighbouring regions in a cohesive way
