This article summarizes recent advances in our knowledge of the past 1000 years of
earthquakes in the Himalaya using geodetic, historical and seismological data, and …

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 ongoing collision of India with Asia is partly accommodated by slip on the Main
Himalayan Thrust (MHT). The 25 April 2015, M w 7.8 Gorkha earthquake is the most recent …

Global seismographic networks (GSNs) emerged during the late nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries, facilitated by seminal international developments in theory, technology …

Large earthquakes are usually assumed to release all of the strain accumulated since the
previous event, implying a reduced seismic hazard after them. However, long records of …

On 25 April 2015, a large earthquake of Mw 7.8 occurred along the Main Himalayan Thrust
fault in central Nepal. It was caused by a collision of the Indian Plate beneath the Eurasian …

Wide‐swath imaging has become a standard acquisition mode for radar missions aiming at
applying synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) at global scale with enhanced …

We use space geodetic data to investigate coseismic and postseismic deformation due to
the 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha earthquake that occurred along the central Himalayan arc …

Abstract The M 7.8 2015 April 25 Gorkha earthquake devastated the mountainous southern
rim of the High Himalayan range in central Nepal. The main shock was followed by 553 …

Abstract In 1255, 1344, and 1408 AD, then again in 1833, 1934, and 2015, large
