The Himalayan orogeny has shaped the sedimentary basins of the region, where
continuous deformation formed both 'conventional'and 'unconventional'petroleum systems at …

Fold-and-thrust belts (FTBs) can be segmented both across and along strike because of
various factors including tectonic and stratigraphic inheritance. In this study, we investigated …

Indian basement faults, which bound three orogen-perpendicular palaeotopographic ridges
of Precambrian Indian basement south of the Himalaya, extend to the base of the Indian …

Multiple episodes of dolomitization of the shallow marine carbonates of the Late Kingriali
Formation resulted in regional scale mappable dolostone geobodies in the Kohat and …

The adaptability potential of plants enables them to colonize diverse habitats along
elevation gradients. Studying these adaptive traits and linking them to environmental …

The foreland fold-and-thrust belt of northern Pakistan is located at the western end of the
Himalayan arc, where salt tectonics is responsible for structural styles, hydrocarbon source …

Abstract 2D contractional scaled analogue experiments with composite materials including
silica-sand and mica-flakes for overburden and silicone for salt analogue are used to …

Abstract The Kohat and Potwar fold thrust belts (KP-FTB) in Pakistan exhibit structural
variations over 250 km along strike within the Himalayan fold and thrust system. Our 3D …

Fault vergence in fold-and-thrust belts and accretionary prisms is characterized by mainly
forward verging thrusts and pop-up structures, and only few examples exist where …

Paleo-uplift is one of the main controlling factors that influence the style of deformation in salt-
bearing fold-and-thrust belt (FTB). Whereas, how paleo-uplift amplitude influences salt …
