Abstract We describe a study of the E–W-trending South Wagad Fault (SWF) complex at eastern part Kachchh Rift Basin (KRB) in Western India. This basin was filled during Late Cretaceous time, and is presently undergoing tectonic inversion. During late stage inversion cycle, all principal rift faults were reactivated as transpressional strike-slip faults. The SWF shows wrench geometry an anastomosing en échelon fault, where contractional extensional segments offsets alternate along Principal...
The Kachchh Rift Basin of western India is known for several geological findings and revelations more than a century. Earth scientists from the globe have played significant role in placing Basin's geology at global level. A basin place geologists to understand typical processes with textbook examples resultant landforms. Mesozoic Cenozoic sedimentary sequences preserved diversity fossil flora fauna, ranging marine terrestrial environment accompanied by volcanic, structural, processes. Due...
The key objective of the present study is to estimate surface displacement and understand/monitor active deformation pattern in Kachchh region post 2001 Bhuj Earthquake by implementing Persistent Scatterer Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PSI) Differential (DInSAR) techniques. We employed ENVISAT ASAR (15 images), ALOS PALSAR (6 pairs) SENTINEL-1A (117 images) data sets acquired during periods 2003–2005, 2007–2009, 2016–2020 respectively. PSI results Envisat dataset reveals that...
In the present study, we have identified tectonically active zones along Island Belt Uplift (IBU), an upthrown block of E-W trending Fault (IBF). Major and minor transverse faults segmented IBU into four sub-uplifts, viz. Pachham (PU), Khadir (KU), Bela (BU), Chorar (CU) from west to east, respectively. The work includes geodetic morphotectonic analysis region. Normalized Steepness Index (Ksn) was performed supported by swath profiling mark tectonic activity variations across strike IBF in...
An articulated and partially preserved skeleton of an ichthyosaur was found in the Upper Jurassic (Upper Kimmeridgian) Katrol Formation exposed at a site south village Lodai Kachchh district, Gujarat (western India). Here we present detailed description inferred taxonomic relationship specimen. The study revealed that belongs to family Ophthalmosauridae. new discovery from India further improves depauperate fossil record ichthyosaurs former Gondwanan continents. Based on length axial...
The present article aims to record a recently discovered middle Miocene vertebrate assemblage (including marine and terrestrial mammals) from Palasava, Kutch (Kachchh) District, Gujarat State, western India. faunal comprising fishes, chelonians, crocodiles, snakes, birds mammals is significant in terms of palaeoecology, palaeoenvironment biostratigraphy the region yields evidence concerning its biogeographic affinities linked Neogene Eustatic history. Palasava fauna together with previously...
