Correlation between equivalent water height (EWH), rainfall, GPS displacement, and different seismicity catalogues. Stacked panels of annual changes of equivalent water height (derived from GRACE averaged over the region latitude: 27.5°–20°N, Longitude: 75°–88°E region), representative GPS displacement in north component (station CHLM), monthly rainfall in Nepal and surrounding region, micro-seismicity from Nepal (1995–2002 of M > 3), historic earthquake frequency (1255–2015 of M > 6), current earthquake frequency from USGS (1963–2015 of M > 5), and USGS catalog seismic moment (Mo, Nm). We suggest that the timing of Nepal Himalayan earthquakes of all magnitudes (historic earthquakes of M > 6, recent earthquakes of M > 5, micro-seismicity of M > 3) is influenced by seasonal deformation
