The lithosphere beneath these is fairly thin compared to other cratons worldwide, petrologically varied and shows considerable variation in thickness with depth both intra-craton and among cratons. Moreover, it has been subjected to the influence of repeated magmatic episodes from Proterozoic to Palaeocene, which have variously impacted different parts of the shield. The thermotectonic influence on constituent cratons is variable depending on the evolutionary history. This book discusses the impact of successive tectonomagmatic events on the evolution of the deep crust and shallow mantle, and their Phanerozoic modification as gleaned through the xenolith window. The book provides a petrotectonic perspective on the deep crust and shallow mantle from direct samples brought up as xenoliths of deep lithologies, and offers a comprehensive overview for students, researchers, academics and professionals, integrating the results of petrological studies of deep lithologies and geophysical investigations to (i) shed light on the physico-chemical and thermal structure of the lithosphere from an array of geotectonic settings and (ii) gain insights into the spatio-temporal evolution of the Indian Shield. An in-depth guide critical thinking on the complex issue of mantle differentiation, magmatism, lithosphere modification and crustal growth over time, the book allows readers to gain a better understanding of the processes that affect the lithosphere and shape the crust on which we live. 001432012 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 19, 2020). 001432012 650_0 $$aCratons$$zIndia. 001432012 650_0 $$aLithosphere. 001432012 650_6 $$aCratons$$zInde. 001432012 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001432012 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z303052941X$$z9783030529413$$w(OCoLC)1157847910 001432012 830_0 $$aModern approaches in solid earth sciences ;$$vv. 20. 001432012 852__ $$bebk 001432012 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-52942-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001432012 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1432012$$pGLOBAL_SET 001432012 980__ $$aBIB 001432012 980__ $$aEBOOK 001432012 982__ $$aEbook 001432012 983__ $$aOnline 001432012 994__ $$a92$$bISE
