Ground-Penetrating Radar Investigations along Hajipur Fault: Himalayan Frontal Thrust—Attempt to Identify Near Subsurface Displacement, NW Himalaya, India
Figure 2
(a) CORONA satellite photo showing distribution of active fault traces named as “Hajipur faults”—HF1 and HF2 on the left bank of Beas River near Hajipur village [25]. Box shows the location of trench and GPR profile line across the HF2 fault scarp at Sandhwal village. Empty arrow marks the direction of fault propagation towards NW. Young tectonic movements along HF1 and HF2 faults resulted into uplift of floodplain deposits, responsible for the shifting/deflection of the Beas River channel along it present course. (b) Panoramic view of HF2—Hajipur fault scarp. PQ indicates the 2D scan, and ABCD indicates the 3D grid collected, respectively across the fault which is marked in red arrows.
