Reply to ‘Evidence for simple volcanic rifting not complex subduction initiation in the Laxmi Basin’

Recently, Pandey et al. proposed relict subduction initiation occurred along a passive margin in the northwest Indian Ocean, however, Clift et al. questioned their evidence for subduction initiation, suggesting that simpler rifting-related processes could more simply explain the available data. Here...
