Neotectonic investigations using morphotectonic parameters such as basin asymmetry, drainage anomalies, digital data interpretation and geomorphic field evidences were carried out in Satluj river valley downstream of Khab in the Kaurik Chango Fault (KCF) zone. The study reveals the presence of a north-south trending fault which is similar to the KCF. Unpaired, tilted terraces, V shaped valleys,...

We model crustal deformation and the resulting thermal structure across the Nepal Himalaya, assuming that, since 20Ma, shortening across the range has been primarily taken up by slip along a single thrust fault, the Main Himalayan Thrust (MHT) Fault, and that the growth of the Himalayan wedge has resulted mainly from underplating and to the development of a duplex at midcrustal depth. We show t...

Abstract. Rome has the world's longest historical record of felt earthquakes, with more than 100 events during last 2600 years. However, no destructive earthquake been reported in sources, and all greatest damage suffered past attributed to far-field events. While this fact suggests that a moderate seismotectonic regime characterizes Roman area, study provided comprehensive explanation for lack...

â â â  chele basin is located in zagros mountains and the border between kermanshah and ilam. seems young geomorphological landforms in the region, are as a result of quaternary neotectonic activities . the purpose of this study is assessment of young morphotectonic movements influence on landform evolution in the chele basin øŒ and comparing the result with the tentative indices and geomorphic...
