From: Varying Indian crustal front in the southern Tibetan Plateau as revealed by magnetotelluric data
Cartoon interpretation of the varying Indian crustal front beneath southern Tibet (modified after Nabelek et al. 2009). The red line indicates the predicted Indian crustal front. The sutures are delineated with dashed black lines. The Indian lower crust reaches farther north in the west part. The hypothetical extrusion southwards from Tibet (blue arrows) acts as a conduit which transfers the upper to middle Indian crust into Himalaya in the east part
