Quaternary alluvial fan sedimentation in the Dehradun Valley Piggyback Basin, NW Himalaya: tectonic and palaeoclimatic implications
TL;DR: The Dehradun valley is a synclinal intermontane valley piggyback basin within the Siwalik Group rocks in the NW Himalaya, separated from the Lesser Himalayan formations in the north by a major intraplate thrust; the Main Boundary Thrust (MBT) and from the Indogangetic Plains in the south by the Himalayan Frontal Fault (HFF).
