Summary:

Gondwana, comprising more than 64 percent of the present day continental mass, is home to 33 percent of large igneous provinces (LIPs) and key to understanding the lithosphere-atmosphere system and related tectonics that influenced global climate and sediment production on Earth. This volume covers topics on magma emplacements, petrology and geochemistry, source characteristics, flood basalt-carbonatite linkage, tectonics and geochronology of LIPs distributed in Gondwana continents.
