Prevailing interpretations of the tectonic history of the NW                    Indian Ocean specify that the coast of Oman is a passive                        continental margin that rifted from India during the Late                       Jurassic. An alternative history is supported by recently                       acquired information comprising: a) magnetics data, b)seismic                   reflection profiles tied to boreholes, c) paleodepth estimates,                 and d) deformation observed along the Oman margin. These data                   imply that the Oman margin lie along a major transform fault.                                                                                                   Funds included in the present award will support an analysis and                synthesis of this new data in an attempt to determine which model               is correct. Understanding the evolution of the Oman margin is                   important  to deciphering the history of the Indian Ocean, the                  collision of India with Eurasia, and the history of sedimentation               on the Oman margin.
