Research summary
AI-generated

Abhijit Basu works in sedimentary geology and geochemistry, studying how sedimentary rocks form and what their chemical makeup reveals about ancient environments and Earth's history. Much of the work involves interpreting the origin (provenance) of sand and other rock fragments and analyzing rock formations in India, including topics like chemical weathering and dating rock layers. Some publications also engage critically with claims made by other researchers in the field.
