Description
Tectonics and Structural Geology: Indian Context provides an in-depth examination of tectonic processes and structural geological phenomena with particular emphasis on Indian geological formations and regional frameworks. Written by renowned geologist Soumyajit Mukherjee, this Springer publication integrates classical structural geology principles with contemporary tectonic theory.
The book explores major tectonic features of the Indian subcontinent, including the Himalayan orogeny, the Indian shield, and associated fault systems. It examines deformation patterns, stress-strain relationships, and the evolution of geological structures across different time scales. The work synthesizes field observations, theoretical concepts, and modern analytical techniques to provide comprehensive insights into how tectonic forces shape the Earth’s crust in the Indian region and beyond.
Ideal for geology students, researchers, and professionals, this reference combines regional case studies with broader tectonic principles applicable globally.
