Getting over continent ocean boundaries
The idea of a simple linear boundary between continental and oceanic crust at extended
continental margins is widely recognized to be an oversimplification. Despite this, such …

The bent prolongation of the 85° E Ridge south of 5° N–Fact or fiction?
T Altenbernd, W Jokat, W Geissler - Tectonophysics, 2020 - Elsevier
Abstract The enigmatic 85° E Ridge crosses the Bay of Bengal from north to south. Its strong
gravity anomaly low is associated with Cretaceous hotspot volcanism. South of 5° N, the …

Two-stage eastward diachronous model of India-Eurasia collision: Constraints from the intraplate tectonic records in Northeast Indian Ocean
Y Suo, S Li, X Cao, H Dong, X Li, X Wang - Gondwana Research, 2022 - Elsevier
The onset of timing and the model of the India-Eurasia collision are strongly debated based
on continental works, without systematic marine tectonic constraints. Two aseismic ridges …
