We analyze geomorphic evidence of recent crustal deformation in the sub‐Himalaya of
central Nepal, south of the Kathmandu Basin. The Main Frontal Thrust fault (MFT), which …

The geomorphic character of major river drainages in the Himalayan foothills of central
Nepal suggests the existence of a discrete, west-northwest–trending break in rock uplift …

The pattern of fluvial incision across the Himalayas of central Nepal is estimated from the
distribution of Holocene and Pleistocene terraces and from the geometry of modern …

Spirit leveling data from the Nepal Himalaya between 1977 and 1990 indicate localized
uplift at 2–3 mm/yr in the Lesser Himalaya with spatial wavelengths of 25–35 km and at 4–6 …

New mapping demonstrates that active emergent thrust faulting is occurring within the fold-
and-thrust belt north of the deformation thrust front in the NW Himalaya. The> 60-km-long …

The present study investigates correlations between an extensive range of geomorphic
properties that can be estimated from a digital elevation model and the uplift rate on …

New geologic mapping in the Marsyandi Valley of central Nepal reveals the existence of
tectonically significant Quaternary thrust faults at the topographic front of the Higher …

How convergent systems distribute strain among frontal thrusts is a major concern regarding
seismic hazard assessment. Along the 2500 km Himalayan arc, the seismic behavior of the …

Abstract The Sub-Himalayan fold-thrust belt consists of deformed late Cenozoic and older
deposits south of the Main Boundary thrust (MBT). In Pakistan, east of the Indus River, the …

Regional mapping, stratigraphic study, and 40Ar/39Ar geochronology provide the basis for
an incremental restoration of the Himalayan fold‐thrust belt in western Nepal …
