Abstract Convergence of the Indian Plate towards Eurasia has led to the building of the
Himalaya, the highest mountain range on Earth. Active mountain building involves a …

The Ardabil plain, with an approximate area of 1097.2 km2 in northwestern Iran, has
experienced land subsidence due to intensive groundwater withdrawal and long seasons of …

We use a recent compilation of geodetic data of surface displacements in a fully Bayesian
approach to derive a probabilistic estimate of interseismic coupling along the Main …

Slope instability due to tectonic, hydrological and anthropogenic activities cause severe
landslides in Himalaya. Joshimath, a densely populated Himalayan town witnessed a …

We use 4 years of 3D GPS data from Nepal and southern Tibet to investigate the
postseismic deformation caused by the 2015 M w 7.8 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake. We first …

Land subsidence due to the over drafting of groundwater has been a major environmental
crisis for decades in Kolkata, one of the most populous and largest cities in India. In this …

The **anshuihe fault is a very large left-lateral strike-slip fault, located on the eastern
boundary of the Tibetan Plateau. In the late Cenozoic, this fault played a vital role in …

To determine the spatial distribution of earthquake potential along the active Himalayan arc,
we utilize GPS measurements and earthquake data. We derive horizontal velocity field and …

The increased seismic activity observed in the Himalayas, coupled with the expanding
urbanization of the surrounding areas in northern India, poses significant risks to both …

Recent laboratory tests and large-scale observations have revealed the complex interplays
between aseismic and seismic deformation, as well as the progressive localization of the …
