... brittle-ductile transition representing the depth of seismicity is found to be ~37 km. The Moho temperature varies between 470 to 5000C. This study suggests that the western part of central Indian region is characterized by low mantle heat flow which in turn makes the lower crust brittle and amenabl ...
