Late quaternary climate changes and landscape evolution in the Northwest Himalaya : geomorphologic processes in the Indian Summer Monsoon Domain
… this year, precipitation migrated far into the Sutlej Valley in the northwestern part of the Himalaya and reached regions behind orographic barriers that are normally arid. There, sediment flux, mean basin denudation rates, and channel-forming processes such as erosion by debris-flows increased …

Seasonal precipitation, river discharge, and sediment flux in the western Himalaya
… river discharge, and sediment flux in the Sutlej Valley. First, I analyze daily precipitation data (1998-2007) from 80 weather stations in the western Himalaya, to decipher the distribution of rain- and snowfall. Rainfall magnitude frequency analyses indicate that 40% of the summer rainfall …

Piezometry and Strain Rate Estimates Along Mid-Crustal Shear Zones
… shear zones, the Main Central Thrust (MCT; Sutlej valley, NW India), South Tibetan Detachment System (STDS; Rongbuk valley, S Tibet), and Moine thrust (NW Scotland), were analyzed. Deformation temperatures estimated from quartz microstructural and petrofabric thermometers indicate steep …

Using Metamorphic Textures to Infer Deformation and Thermodynamic Histories
Garnet porphyroblasts are commonly used to determine P-T conditions in metamorphic rock assemblages. However, the actual process of porphyroblast nucleation is still poorly understood and garnet growth may occur at different conditions than those predicted by equilibrium thermodynamics. It is …
