The pattern of strain accumulation and its release during earthquakes along the eastern Himalayan syntaxis is unclear due to structural complexity lack primary surface signatures associated with large-to-great earthquakes. This led a consensus that these occurred on blind faults. Toward understanding this issue, palaeoseismic trenching was conducted across ~3.1 m high fault scarp preserved mountain front at Pasighat (95.33°E, 28.07°N). Multi-proxy radiometric dating employed stratigraphic...
Kashmir valley lies in the Northwest part of seismically active Himalayan arc, is vulnerable to earthquakes both from near and far seismogenic sources owing its unique geological, geographical seismotectonic setting. The area has witnessed numerous colossal throughout prolific geological past causing severe damage natural built environment with intensity levels ranges between VIII–X. Recent data instrumental seismicity shows that very high peak ground accelerations can be generated by...
<title>Abstract</title> The Kashmir valley in the northwest Himalayas faces unprecedented climate change with erratic rainfall patterns and frequent extreme weather atmospheric disturbances form of hailstorm events. These adversely impact horticultural produce region, undermining livelihood security economy, thus affecting millions lives. In present study, spatiotemporal dynamics precipitation subsequent hail storm events from 1990 to 2022 monthly recent severe hailstorms 2010–2022 terms...
The present study has been carried out in Kashmir Basin (KB), NW Himalaya, to determine the relative tectonic activity using morphotectonic analysis, drainage patterns, lineament analysis and geomorphological field observations. Geomorphic signatures KB indicate that intrabasinal faults have quite active during Quaternary time played a dominant role kinematic structural evolution of basin. manifestation this recorded by terrain morphology, uplifted river terraces, warped fluvial surfaces,...
Abstract The East Boundary Thrust (EBT), is a ~ 500 km long linear to curvilinear deformation zone along the Sunda-Andaman plate edge convergent margin. EBT main active tectonic structure responsible for accretionary prism formation and accommodates bulk of present crustal in outer arc ridge Andaman Nicobar subduction zone. marks up dip expression mega thrust progressing towards trench form actively accreting frontal deforming sediment sequences above detachment. We conducted paleoseismic...
