Tectonics and Structural Geology: Indian Context

ectonics and Structural Geology: Indian Context
Soumyajit Mukherjee

This book presents a compilation of findings, review and original works, on the tectonic evolution and structural detail of several terrains in India.‎ It captures the tectonic diversity of the Indian terrain, including tectonics of India's coastal areas, the tectonic evolution of Gondwana and Proterozoic (Purana) basins.‎ It also describes the research results of theIndian craton's geo-history, Tertiary Bengal basin, and also the Himalayan collisional zone.‎ Thus the book covers the deformation history of Indian terrain involving strike slip, compressional and extensional tectonics, and ductile and brittle shear deformations.‎
