Opposite shear sense (OSS) is manifested by the presence of conflicting shear sense
indicators in a portion of a rock body, a shear/fault zone or across several parallel shear/fault …

Abstract The Kachchh Basin, located in Gujarat (India) at the western trailing edge of the
Indian plate, comprises several east–west trending seismically active faults. The Kachchh …

Abstract The Bengal Basin is a collisional foreland basin in South Asia located at the
juncture of the Eurasian, Indian and Burmese Plates occupying Bangladesh and parts of the …

Our field studies emphasizing brittle shear P-and Y-planes along the margins of the Barmer
basin (Rajasthan, India) support its two-phase (NW-SE, followed by NE-SW) extension …

Remote sensing satellite images are studied visually in identifying different lineaments and
to therefore interpret the tectonics. The identified lineaments from imagery should be …

Tectonic inheritance deals with the influence of pre-existing or pre-rift elements on the
geometry, genesis and propagation of rift-related faults. Inheritance strongly controls the …

Koyna, located in the Deccan Volcanic Province in western India, is the most significant site
of reservoir triggered seismicity (RTS) globally. The largest RTS event of M 6.3 occurred …

Giant circumferential dyke swarms have a primary geometry that is quasi-circular or quasi-
elliptical. Examples and possible examples described previously or identified in this study …

Remote sensing has been immensely useful in tectonics, structural geology, and
geomorphic studies. This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in …

The available plate-tectonic evolution models suggest that the deep ocean basins adjoining
the western continental margin of India have evolved largely due to break-up and dispersal …
