The main aim of this paper is to document the geomorphic expression of active faulting based on remote sensingapproach and supplement the occurrence of one single large magnitude event 600 years or so ago along the Himalayan Frontal Thrust (HFT) as deduced ...

In this paper, we document several new active fault traces along Katrol Hill Fault (KHF) as well as associated geomorphic features, fault exposure along newly identified Bhuj Fault (Morino et al communicated) and trench investigation at Wandhay site.

In this paper, we report the nature of active fault, event horizons, and a net-slip during a single faulting event, though the dating for Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) is still in process. The data generated from this study will be very significant ...

This article is an attempt to compile all scattered information to serve as a comprehensive technical reference. Further, the article surveys the various applications where CORONA data have been used and assesses the potential of these data. Due to low cost, ...

The frontal fault system - the Himalayan Frontal Thrust (HFT) associated with the foreland fold - Janauri Anticline, along with other major as well as secondary hinterland thrust faults, provides an ideal site to study the ongoing tectonic activity which has ...

A total of 24 m Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) profiles acquired across the 6 m high Pinjore Garden Fault(PGF) scarp with 200 MHz antenna, yielded highresolution subsurface image with penetration depthup to 6 m.With this attempt we suggest that the GPR technique ...

Investigations carried out on active tectonism for the past several decades have provided vital information on the ongoing crustal deformation and on recurrence of earthquakes in the Himalayas. For detailed paleoseismic studies, a preliminary trench investigation ...

Evidence of two parallel to sub-parallel active-fault traces along the Himalayan Front around Chandigarh has provided additional information on the imbricated faulting pattern that branches out from the Himalayan Frontal Thrust system, which probably merges ...
