Primary on fault paleoseismic evidences from trench investigation along the Bathubasti fault, South Andaman, India

Continued structural descent of the Indian lithosphere below the Sunda-Andaman trench produced several destructive large to great earthquakes in the region of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The pattern of strain accumulation and its release in the context of great plate boundary mega thrust earthquakes and slip partitioning along active faults in the Andaman and Nicobar region during these events is unclear, owing to lack of on-fault primary...
