Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Nepal using multiple seismic source models

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Nepal using multiple seismic source models

The potential for devastating earthquakes in the Himalayan orogeny has long been recognized. The 2015 MW7.8 Gorkha, Nepal earthquake has heightened the likelihood that major earthquakes will occur along this orogenic belt in the future. Reliable seismic hazard assessment is a critical element in dev...
