Structural Geology By S.k. Ghosh Pdf

[Michael]

Bornon 1 March 1932 in the Indian state of West Bengal, S. K. Ghosh graduated in science (BSc) from University of Kolkata and after completing a master's degree from the same institution, he joined his alma mater as a member of the faculty of geology in 1958.[3] Simultaneously, enrolled at Presidency College, Kolkata for his doctoral studies under the guidance of Santosh Kumar Ray and secured a PhD working on the time-correlation of the structural and metamorphic histories of the terrain in Kuilapal village in Purulia District.[1] Subsequently, he moved to Uppsala University where he worked under Hans Ramberg, a renowned geologist who would later lend his name to Rambergite mineral.[6] He stayed with Ramberg for two years at the end of which period he received the degree of Filosofisk doktorgrad from Uppsala University in 1967 and returned to join Jadavpur University where he set up an experimental laboratory to continue his researches. He served the university till his superannuation in 1997 but continued his association post-retirement as an emeritus professor, an INSA senior scientist, and as an INSA honorary scientist. During this period, he also had a short stint in Sweden as a research associate for the Swedish National Programme for the Geodynamics Project.[3]

The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research awarded Ghosh the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize, one of the highest Indian science awards, in 1977.[13] The Indian National Science Academy elected him as their fellow in 1979, INSA would honor him again in 1998 with K. Naha Memorial Medal.[14] The same year, the Indian Academy of Sciences also elected him as a fellow.[4] Evolution of Geological Structures in Micro- to Macro-scales,[15] edited by Sudipta Sengupta and published by Springer in 1997 is a festschrift on Ghosh and Kshitindramohan Naha, another noted geologist.[16]

For structural geology, Haakon Fossen is one of the best books to clear your concepts. SK Ghosh is also good, but i will suggest you to go for TK Biswal Sir's youtube videos on structural geology. I bet you will never doubt and will never forget the numerical approach to this topic after going through those videos. He is a professor from IIT bombay. Happy Learning. Cheers.

For Structural geology, first go through the jam syllabus and note down all the topics pertaining to the respective subject and explore it thereafter. Structural Geology is the most conceptual topic in geology as far as I know and you need to have good concepts of golds, faults, unconformity and various structures that are formed due to these features. MP Billings is surely a good book to start with, but at the end you will find it outdated which itself leads to boring ways of illustrations. But try to cover MP Billings first (because it's the basic book and cover some good concepts as well) . After completing MP Billings, try to read folds and their related structures from Twiss and Moores(good book for structural especially folds) and adding to that read SK Ghosh (especially for fault I would suggest you to go through this book). Rest after completing all the important topics (folds, faults, unconformity, schistosity Or mineral lineation and foliations) , go through previous year papers of jam /gate to get the deeper insight about the type of question they ask specifically. Note: You can go through Hakkon Fossen also if you have time(otherwise it's not mandatory) , it's a slightly advanced book but a good book for GATE and other competitive exams related to geology.

Time management is very much important in IIT JAM. The eduncle test series for IIT JAM Mathematical Statistics helped me a lot in this portion. I am very thankful to the test series I bought from eduncle.

Eduncle served as my guiding light. It has a responsive doubt solving team which solves & provides good solutions for your queries within 24 hours. Eduncle Mentorship Services guides you step by step regarding your syllabus, books to be used to study a subject, weightage, important stuff, etc.

The study material of Eduncle helps me a lot. The unit wise questions and test series were helpful. It helped me to clear my doubts. When I could not understand a topic, the faculty support too was good. Thanks Eduncle.

I recommend Eduncle study material & services are best to crack UGC-NET exam because the material is developed by subject experts. Eduncle material consists a good no. of ques with online test series & mock test papers.
