Regional patterns of present-day tectonic stress can be used to evaluate the forces acting on
the lithosphere and to investigate intraplate seismicity. Most intraplate regions are …

This essential reference for graduate students and researchers provides a unified treatment
of earthquakes and faulting as two aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The …

We propose a new model for the tectonic evolution of the eastern Indian Ocean from the
Late Cretaceous to the present. Two types of data are used to improve previously published …

Estimates of shear resistance associated with lithospheric thrusting and convergence
represent lower bounds on the force necessary to promote trench formation. Three …

We evaluate far-field tsunami hazard in the Indian Ocean Basin based on hydrodynamic
simulations of ten case studies of possible mega earthquakes at the major seismic zones …

The relative contribution of topographic (eg, ridge push, continental margins, and elevated
continental crust) and plate boundary (eg, subduction and collisional) forces to the intraplate …

Abstract Analysis of the relation between intraplate stress fields and lithospheric rheology
leads to greater insight into the role that initiation of subduction plays in the tectonic …

We use plate tectonic reconstructions to establish whether motions between India and
Australia occurred since chron 18 (43 Ma). We test the Africa/Antarctica/Australia/India plate …

We review the relative motion of India and Asia for the last 100 million years and present a
revised reconstruction for the India–Antarctica–Africa–North America–Eurasia plate circuit …

We have performed scaled lithospheric experiments to simulate the behavior of a ocean‐
continent plate system subjected to compressional strain over a geological timescale …
