Summary Rocks exposed across the hundreds of islands that belong to the 800 km long Andaman-Nicobar archipelago provide a condensed window into the active subduction zone that separates the India-Australia plate from the over-riding Burma-Sunda plate. Despite a strategic and seismically active location the Andaman-Nicobar ridge has seen comparatively little research. This Memoir provides the first detailed and comprehensive account of geological mapping and research across the island chain and adjacent ocean basins.
