Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

Plate tectonics describes the horizontal motions of lithospheric plates, the Earth's outer shell,
and interactions among them across the Earth's surface. Since the establishment of the …

Published models for the Cretaceous seafloor‐spreading history of East Gondwana result in
unlikely tectonic scenarios for at least one of the plate boundaries involved and/or violate …

Rifted margins are commonly defined as magma-poor or magma-rich archetypes based on
their morphology. We re-examine the prevailing model inferred from this classification that …

This is the first detailed report and analyses of deformation from the W part of the Deccan
large igneous province (DLIP), Maharashtra, India. This deformation, related to the India …

The discovery of oil and gas in the Barmer Basin in northwest India was one of the more
significant global discoveries in the decade 2001–2010. The basin's presence was …

Microcontinents separate due to ridge jumps associate either asymmetric sea floor
spreading or plume–ridge interactions. India separated from Seychelles at∼ 64 Ma by …

Structural studies of the Barmer Basin in Rajasthan, northwest India, demonstrate the
important effect that pre-existing faults can have on the geometries of evolving fault systems …

It is debated to what extent mantle plumes play a role in continental rifting and eventual
break-up. Afar lies at the northern end of the largest and most active present-day continental …

Geomorphologic studies can set important constraints on the petroleum geosciences of
sedimentary basins. In the western Rajasthan area of Indian shield, constituting Barmer and …
