DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2017.08.029
Abstract: Abstract Various observations are made to invert for the source model of the 2015 Gorkha earthquake. Previously published slip models involve different slip distributions and slip amplitudes. To obtain a robust model, we jointly invert… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2020.10.053
Abstract: Abstract The April 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake caused moderate liquefaction in the Kathmandu Valley. Shallow pits within these sites exposed previous earthquake induced liquefactions. The multiple exposures allow us to constrain the sand… read more here.
