Ground-Penetrating Radar Investigations along Hajipur Fault: Himalayan Frontal Thrust—Attempt to Identify Near Subsurface Displacement, NW Himalaya, India

Figure 3

(a) Processed 2D GPR profile collected using 200 MHz antenna across the HF2 scarp at Sandhwal Village (refer to Figures 2(a) and 2(b) for location). The profile was about 29 m long showing the processed profile after topographic correction. Reflections at 4-5 m indicate water pipeline, whereas the reflections from 14–28 m show the fault traces. Box with dotted line shows approximate area of a trench. (b) Interpretation with fault traces and stratigraphic units on north wall of trench excavated across HF2 fault scarp. F1, F2, F3, and F4 are the thrust faults dipping in NE direction. Latest event has been observed along F1, F2, and F3 displacing the units 1, 2, 3, and 4.
