Spread over countries including Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China, the Himalayan
mountain chain, the most spectacular result of the Indo-Eurasian plate collision, is a locus of …

There is increasing evidence that the Himalayan seismicity can be bimodal: blind
earthquakes (up to Mw~ 7.8) tend to cluster in the downdip part of the seismogenic zone …

In April 2015, the lower locked portion of the Main Himalayan Thrust ruptured beneath
Nepal, causing the disastrous M w 7.8 Gorkha earthquake. Elucidating the enigmatic …

The Himalayan megathrust accommodates most of the relative convergence between the
Indian and Eurasian plates, producing cycles of blind and surface-breaking ruptures …

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 …

Historical archives refer to often recurring earthquakes along the Eastern Himalaya for which
geological evidence is lacking, raising the question of whether these events ruptured the …

Northwest Himalaya hosted several major earthquakes, with the most recent 1905 (Mw7. 8),
