are east-west-aligned just west of the Ninetyeast Ridge and rotate parallel to APM near the ridge. We infer that previously proposed broad eastward asthenospheric flow associated with the Runion hotspot extends to the Ninetyeast Ridge. These observations suggest eastward-directed mantle flow that drives the Capricorn plate。

and Australian plates meet. Two hypotheses have been proposed to explain this deformation: (1) a slowdown in convergence due to the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau， causing differential motion to neighboring plates，印度洋下的地幔剪切方向应与绝对板块运动方向一致；而第二种假说则预测以东西向剪切为主，快波偏振方向反映了变形取向：在九十度海岭以西呈东西向排列，隶属于美国地质学会，2026年3月30日出版的《地质学》杂志发表了这项成果， 印度洋底大范围的弥散变形带标志着印度板块、卡普里科恩板块和澳大利亚板块交汇的边界区域。

Here we use P waves that convert to S upon surface reflection to determine the direction of mantle shear beneath the Indian Ocean.
