Abstract

We present crustal thickness and Poisson's ratio determinations from receiver function analyzes at 32 sites on the Archaean and Proterozoic terrains of South India. The crustal thickness in the late Archaean (2.5 Ga) Eastern Dharwar Craton varies from 34–39 km. Similar crustal thickness is observed ...
