Brief Description (Abstract):

To holistically understand the geodynamical and crustal deformation processes in the south of Indian peninsula between India and Antarctica, two global networks (IND and ANT) have been chosen that geodetically connect the two continents. The IGS Station at Diego Garcia (DGAR) is the common station between the two networks. 10 years of data from 1997 to 2007 were used. By these global networks? analyses, the stations HYDE and MAIT are geodetically tied through DGAR. Very long baselines have been estimated from HYDE and also from Kerguelen (KERG) to other chosen IGS stations in and around India and Antarctica. Our analysis and results using ANT network show an increase in the baseline lengths between Kerguelen in Antarctica plate and other stations such as SEY1, DGAR and COCO and shortening of baseline lengths between HYDE in Indian plate and all these above stations using IND network.

Status: Completed

Purpose: 1. How rigid is the Indian Plate and Indian OceanBasin? 2. Does relatively high level of intraplate seismicity on the oceanic part of the Indian Plate indicates internal deformation in excess of other plates? and, 3. Is this related to Indo-Eurasian collision and the uplift of Himalayas?.
