TL;DR: GPS and interferometric synthetic aperture radar data are used to model the earthquake rupture as a slip pulse ~20 kilometers in width, ~6 seconds in duration, and with a peak sliding velocity of 1.1 meters per second, which propagated toward the Kathmandu basin at 3.3 kilometers per second over ~140 kilometers.
Journal ArticleDOI

L. B. Adhikari,Umesh Gautam,Bharat Prasad Koirala,Mukunda Bhattarai,T. Kandel,Ratna Mani Gupta,Chintan Timsina,N. Maharjan,K. Maharjan,T. Dahal,R. Hoste-Colomer,Yoann Cano,M. Dandine,Aurélie Guilhem,Sophie Merrer,P. Roudil,Laurent Bollinger +16 more
TL;DR: Adhikari et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a method to solve the problem of Nepal's earthquake and proposed an approach to solve it with the help of the National Seismological Centre (NSC).
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre- and post-seismic deformation related to the 2015, Mw7.8 Gorkha earthquake, Nepal

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed time series from continuously recording GPS stations in Nepal spanning the pre- and post-seismic period associated to the M_w7.8 Gorkha earthquake which ruptured the Main Himalayan Thrust (MHT) fault on April 25th, 2015.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, gas discharges have been identified at the Syabru-Bensi hot springs, located at the front of the High Himalaya in Central Nepal, in the Main Central Thrust zone.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution self-potential map, covering an area of 100 m by 150 m that surrounds the main gas and water discharge spots, exhibits a dipolar selfpotential anomaly with a negative peak reaching −180 mV at the main discharge spot.
