This is a request for continued funding for investigations of kinematics and rigidity of the Indian Ocean plate and the zone of distributed deformation between the Indian and Australian plates. Aeromagnetic data were collected in the area during the first part of this study and the PI proposes here to extend the study to finite plate reconstructions. The goals are to estimate finite rotations and confidence limits on the motion between India, Africa, and Australia.

这是要求继续提供资金， 印度洋板块运动学和刚性以及 印度板块和澳大利亚板块之间的分布变形。 在第一部分期间在该地区收集了航磁数据 本研究的主要研究者建议将研究扩展至 有限板重建。 目标是估计有限的 在印度和印度之间的运动中的轮换和信任限制， 非洲和澳大利亚。
