About the Book

The comprehension of earth systems and their dynamic behavior necessitates objective insights into the intricate observational data sets and their interrelationships. The process of drawing meaningful inferences from such data is not always straightforward, as the deterministic relationships between various geological variables are often concealed. Empirical determination of these interrelationships requires the analysis of a substantial amount of data and validation through numerical simulations. The constantly evolving field of numerical analysis and simulation now provides a plethora of tools to aid in interpretation. However, due to the inherent complexity of earth science data, expert supervision is essential at every stage of analysis, from data collection to dissemination. This ensures that the most appropriate methodology is adopted and the results remain in accordance with geological principles. The practical aspects of these discussions often extend beyond the scope of textbooks, and this book aims to address these topics. In this book, distinguished geoscientists present their experiences in analyzing and managing earth science data, as well as designing numerical models to simulate earth processes. Additionally, they discuss the advantages and disadvantages of alternative methodologies. The seven authoritative articles, comprehensively illustrated, will serve as a valuable resource for research students and professionals interested in research and teaching in various earth science disciplines, such as tectonics, GPS geodesy, sedimentology, geographical information science, and evolutionary biology.

Table of Contents:
1. Active deformation in the Darjiling-Sikkim Himalaya based on 2000-2004 geodetic global positioning system measurements. 2. Preliminary results of a study of crustal deformation in the Himalayan Frontal zone in North Bengal using GPS Geodesy. 3. Spatial and temporal variations of the strain fields in orogenic belts: an analysis based on kinematic models. 4. Grain size distribution patterns of some rivers in the light of three model distributions. 5. Estimation of shape changes of skull roof bones in Benthosuchus Sushkini, a Temnospondyl amphibian from the Triassic of Russia. 6. Spatial mathematical models for mineral potential mapping. 7. Enterprise GIS in Geological Survey of India.
