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 modem channels along major rivers draining across the range. The terraces provide good constraints on incision rates across the Himalayan frontal folds (Sub-Himalaya or Siwaliks Hills) where rivers are forced to cut down into risi...

16 17 The transfer of precipitation into rivers involves temporary water storage in reservoirs 1,2 such as 18 soils, groundwater, snow and glaciers, where different residence times influence the hydrological 19 cycle. In the central Himalayas, the water budget is considered to be primarily controlled by 20 monsoon rainfall, snow and glacier melt 3,4 , and secondarily by evapotranspiration 3. Th...

Two extreme snowfall events associated with extratropical cyclones, one interacting with the western and one with the central Himalaya, are simulated with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model over 8 days. One event in January 1999 was driven by a longwave trough over west Asia, with the cyclone becoming terrain-locked in the western Himalayan notch. Another event in March 2006 was d...

Abstract. The Lesser Himalaya exposed in the Kishtwar Window (KW) of Kashmir exhibits rapid rock uplift and exhumation (?3 mm yr?1) at least since late Miocene. However, it has remained unclear if is still actively deforming. Here, we combine new field, morphometric structural analyses with dating geomorphic markers to discuss spatial pattern deformation across window. We found two steep stream...

Geographic Information Systems and remote sensing, have proved to be efficient tools in delineation of drainage pattern different geometric methodology geomorphologic, watershed management even GIS has been widely used several flood management, environmental applications. The river Beki with an area 19,354.35 sq.km2 originates at Himalayan glacier (Kula Kangri Bhutan) 26.18° N latitudes 90.53° ...
