Microearthquake Seismology and Seismotectonics of South Asia



Preface

This book is a humble effort to share my experiences in the field of seismology

and seismotectonics. During my PhD study in early 1980s at the Victoria

University of Wellington (VUW), New Zealand, I came across only one

book on Microearthquake Seismology by Lee and Stewart (1981). We get

hundreds of books on theoretical seismology and thousands of research papers

on theoretical as well as on observational seismology, but not many books

on observational seismology or seismotectonics. I felt this demand in my

student life as well as in my professional life. I think it is appropriate to have

such a reference book on South Asia region, that may help to foster more

communication between seismologists and geologists at national and

international levels.
