A significant number of new palaeomagnetic poles have become available since the last
time a compilation was made (assembled in 2005, published in 2008) to indicate to us that a …

Using the most up-to-the-date information available, we present a considerably revised plate
tectonic and paleogeographic model for the Indian Ocean bordering continents, from …

A strong 50–35 Ma decrease in India‐Asia convergence is generally ascribed to continent‐
continent collision. However, a convergence rate increase of similar magnitude occurred …

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 …

Abstract The Wilson Cycle theory that oceans close and reopen along the former suture is a
fundamental concept in plate tectonics. It was named after J. Tuzo Wilson who recognised …

Madagascar is one of the world's hottest biodiversity hot spots due to its diverse, endemic,
and highly threatened biota. This biota shows a distinct signature of evolution in isolation …

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are the products of exceptional magmatic events that played
important roles in tectonic plate reorganizations, environmental crises, energy resource …

Aim To present an up to date account of the Mesozoic history of India and its relationship to
the other Gondwana continents and to Eurasia. Location Continents surrounding the …

▪ Abstract Neither geologists nor biologists have a definition that is capable of classifying
Madagascar unambiguously as an island or a continent; nor can they incorporate Malagasy …

Alternative reconstructions of the Jurassic northern extent of Greater India differ by up to
several thousand kilometers. We present a new model that is constrained by revised …
