Jammu and Kashmir is one of the most seismically active region on the planet Earth which was affected by several small and large magnitude earthquakes including the devastating 2005 Muzaffarabad earthquake (Mw 7.6). The Jammu city is the winter capital of Jammu and Kashmir and falls under Zone...
The NW Himalayan "seismic gap" lies between the 1905 and 2005 earthquake rupture zones and straddles the meisoseismal zone of the 1555‐Kashmir earthquake. Sufficient elastic strain has now accumulated across this region to drive a mega‐thrust earthquake. We model the crustal structure ...
The entire population of Jammu and Kashmir is >12 million, and the vulnerability to hazards is unavoidable unless a robust framework is planned for the region. Our fieldwork shows that Kashmir conflict has a negative impact on the mindset of people because they take earthquake and flood hazards...
