The Himalayan-Tibetan orogen culminated during the Cenozoic India--Asia collision, but its geological framework and initial growth were fundamentally the result of multiple, previous …
We document geodetic strain across the Nepal Himalaya using GPS times series from 30 stations in Nepal and southern Tibet, in addition to previously published campaign GPS …

Abstract The Himalaya and Tibet provide an unparalleled opportunity to examine the complex ways in which continents respond to collisional orogenesis. This paper is an …
We analyze geomorphic evidence of recent crustal deformation in the sub‐Himalaya of central Nepal, south of the Kathmandu Basin. The Main Frontal Thrust fault (MFT), which …
The pattern of fluvial incision across the Himalayas of central Nepal is estimated from the distribution of Holocene and Pleistocene terraces and from the geometry of modern …
