The third edition of this widely acclaimed textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to
all aspects of global tectonics, and includes major revisions to reflect the most significant …

Hardly a week passes without our learning of natural geologic disaster somewhere in the
world, be it a volcanic eruption, landslide, or destructive earthquake. The prominent public …

Subduction of buoyant continental lithosphere is one of the least understood plate-tectonic
processes. Yet under the Pamir–Hindu Kush, at the northwestern margin of the India–Asia …

This paper is concerned with the implications of earthquake depth distributions in the
Himalayan–Tibetan collision zone for the general understanding of lithosphere rheology. In …

Teleseismic receiver function analysis of seismograms recorded on a∼ 700 km long profile
of 17 broadband seismographs traversing the NW Himalaya shows a progressive northward …

We present a high‐resolution 3‐D lithospheric model of the Indian plate region down to 300
km depth, obtained by inverting a new massive database of surface wave observations …

The S wave velocity structure of the crust and uppermost mantle of the Indian shield has
been investigated by jointly inverting P wave receiver functions and Rayleigh wave group …

We present a 3D S-velocity model for the crust and upper mantle of the South China Sea
and the surrounding regions, constrained from the analysis of over 12,000 of fundamental …

We present new, high‐resolution, shear velocity models for the western Himalayas and West
Tibet from the joint inversion of P receiver functions recorded using seismic stations from …

Since marine seismic studies are relatively sparse and unevenly distributed, detailed
tomographic images of the Moho geometry under large parts of the world's oceans and …
