Abstract

AbstractAntarctica, the southern polar icy continent with its exceptional geodynamic scenery, has been a part of India's scientific research since 1981. Currently, the activities are being facilitated by the National Centre for Polar and Ocean Research (N.C.P.O.R.), Goa, through scientific expeditions to Antarctica. Since its inception, CSIR-NGRI has been participating in these expeditions and has established seismological, G.P.S. observatories for monitoring seismicity and to understand the tectonics of Antarctica plate and has carried out some geological and geophysical studies, too. We summarise some of the essential contributions of CSIR-NGRI.KeywordsGeodynamicsSeismologyGPSPlate tectonicsGravity measurements
