An exotic Mesoarchean microcontinent: The Coorg Block, southern India
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the petrology, geochemistry, zircon U-Pb geochronology and Lu-Hf isotopes of all the major lithologies from the Coorg block.

Formation of Archean (3600-2500 Ma) continental crust in the Dharwar Craton, southern India
TL;DR: The Dharwar Craton formed by assembly of micro-blocks with independent thermal records and accretionary histories is analyzed in this paper, which provides important insights into building of continents in the Early Earth.

Mudlappa Jayananda,Mudlappa Jayananda,Dominique Chardon,Dominique Chardon,Jean-Jacques Peucat,Tushipokla,Christopher Fanning +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a multidisciplinary study involving field, petrographic, SHRIMP U-Pb zircon/titanite ages, whole rock geochemical and Nd-Sr isotope data is presented for the Peninsular Gneisses and associated plutons forming core of the Dharwar craton.

A geological synthesis of the Precambrian shield in Madagascar
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized and integrated available U-Pb geochronology of the Precambrian shield of Madagascar into a synthesis of the region's geological history.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neoarchean continental growth through arc magmatism in the Nilgiri Block, southern India
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation and growth of continental crust in the Archean have been evaluated through models of subduction-accretion and mantle plume, and the authors showed that the Nilgiri block in southern India exposes exhumed Neoarchean lower crust, uplifted to heights of 2500 m above sea level along the north western margin of the Peninsula.

Subcommission on geochronology: Convention on the use of decay constants in geo- and cosmochronology
R.H. Steiger,E. Jäger +1 more
TL;DR: The IUGS Subcommission on Geochronology (FOOTNOTE 4) as discussed by the authors recommended the adoption of a standard set of decay constants and isotopic abundances in isotope geology.

Approximation of terrestrial lead isotope evolution by a two-stage model
J.S. Stacey,Jan Kramers +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage model for terrestrial lead isotope evolution is proposed, which permits the age of the earth to be that of the meteorite system and also yields good model ages for samples of all ages.

Remote Sensing and Image Interpretation
TL;DR: In this article, the concept of remote sensing elements of photogrammetry was introduced. Butterfly, thermal, and hyperspectral sensors were used to interpret multispectral, thermal and hypererspectral images.
