Figure 3
(A) Study area mapped on 12.5 m resolution ALOS-PALSAR DEM, https://search.asf.alaska.edu/#/. Red line: HFT (Himalayan Frontal Thrust). The first image is raw DEM with uplifted segments and topography; the second is the same region with mapped features. EMT- East Mechi Terrace, LF-Lohargarh Forest. (B1) 10 m and 17 m high scarp profiles extracted from the RTK-GPS survey. Yellow polygon: location of a pit excavated on the hanging wall. (B2) Profile across the terrace riser from current river grade to the surface of the truncated T2 terrace showing ~ 24 m elevation difference. (C) A geomorphic map of the study area was created using Triangulated Irregular Network method (1.5x) extracted from 12.5 m resolution ALOS-PALSAR DEM, using ArcGIS v10.5, https://www.arcgis.com/. Dashed lines mark two levels of terraces along the Manjha Khola River, where T2 terraces are truncated by HFT and T1 terraces are not cut by active fault. The figures were created using Adobe Illustrator software, vCS-5, https://www.adobe.com/in/products/illustrator.
