The continental collision process has made a large contribution to growth and reconfiguration of cratons throughout Earth history. Many the mountain belts present today are product such as Appalachians, Alps, Cordillera, Himalaya, Zagros, Papuan Fold Thrust Belt. Though collisional generally elongate laterally continuous, close inspection reveals disruptions variations in thrust geometry kinematics along strike range. These lateral typically coincide with cross structures have been...
Abstract An excavation across the Himalayan Frontal Thrust near Damak in eastern Nepal shows displacement on a fault plane dipping ~22° has produced vertical separation scarp equal to 5.5 m. Stratigraphic, structural, geometrical, and radiocarbon observations are interpreted indicate that is result of single earthquake 11.3 ± 3.5 m dip‐slip occurred 1146–1256 A.D. Empirical scaling laws thrust earthquakes characterized by average displacements this size may produce rupture lengths 450...
In April and May 2019, as part of National Geographic Rolex's Perpetual Planet Everest Expedition, an interdisciplinary scientific effort conducted a suite research on the mountain recognized many changing dynamics, including emergent risks resulting from natural anthropogenic changes to biological system. this Primer, diverse teams highlight ecosystem human health, geologic hazards, climbing conditions that could affect local community, climbers, trekkers in future. We bring together...
The Everest region is characterized by its alpine glacial environment. In an effort to understand environmental change and tectonic activity, our team cored Taboche Lake, situated at 4,712 m along the western margin of Ngozumpa Glacier. This research catalogs past earthquakes using geological records lake core that are important for assessment future earthquake hazards in provides information risk floods. Core grain size characteristics internal sedimentary structures from computed...
Abstract The Benkar Fault Zone (BFZ) is a recently recognized, NNE-striking, brittle to ductile, cross fault that cuts across the dominant metamorphic fabric of Greater Himalayan Sequence (GHS) and Lesser (LHS) in eastern Nepal. 40Ar/39Ar-muscovite cooling ages along transect BFZ GHS indicate movement younger than 12 Ma. To understand mode genesis, seismo-tectonic implications BFZ, we mapped this from Everest region upper Khumbu valley toward south, Main Central Thrust, into LHS Nappe. We...
In April and May 2019, as a part of the National Geographic Roxel Perpetual Planet Everest Expedition, most interdisciplinary scientific ever was launched. This research identified changing dynamics, including emergent risks resulting from natural anthropogenic change to system. We have compounded ecosystem human health, geologic hazards, climate conditions that impact local community, climbers, trekkeers in future. review brings together perspectives across biological, geological, health...

The Mount Everest region is characterized by its alpine glacial environment. In an effort to understand environmental change in the area, our team cored Taboche Lake, situated at 4,712 m along western margin of lateral moraine Ngozumpa Glacier. This research catalogues past earthquakes using geological records lake core that are important for assessment future earthquake hazards region. To achieve aims study, grain size characteristics and internal sedimentary structures from CT scan...
