A new assessment of the elastic thickness (Te) structure of the Indian shield, and its implications

<p>The elastic thickness (Te) of continents is a matter of much debate. Recent studies have shown that a number of factors control the continental Te, including age, heat flow, and lithospheric thickness. Here, we estimate the Te structure of the whole Indian shield using an improved isotropic...
