The lateral segmentation of the Himalayan arc is now well-established from various observations, including topography, gravity anomalies, exhumation rates, and present-day seismic activity. Good knowledge of the main geometric features of these segments and their boundaries is thus the next step to improve seismic hazard assessment in this area. Following recent studies, we focus our approach on the transition zone between Nepal and Bhutan where both M > 8 earthquakes and changes in the geometry of the Indian plate have been documented. Ground gravity data sets are combined with satellite gravity gradients provided by the GOCE mission (Gravity Field and Steady-State Ocean Circulation Explorer) in a joint inversion to assess the location and the geometry of this transition. We obtain a ca. 10 km wide transition zone located at the western border of Bhutan that is aligned with the Madhupur fault in the foreland and coincides with the Dhubri–Chungthang fault zone and the Yadong-Gulu rift in Himalaya and southern Tibet, respectively. This sharp segment boundary at depth can act as a barrier to earthquake rupture propagation. It can possibly restrict the size of large earthquakes and thus reduce the occurrence probability of M > 9 earthquakes along the Main Himalayan Thrust.

A crustal deformation study of the Charlevoix seismic zone in Quebec / Marc Cocard in Geomatica, vol 64 n° 3 (September 2010)

In this paper, part of the Canadian first order vertical network, measured from 1909 to 1991, is analyzed for repeating levelling lines. In addition, a part of a first order geodetic network along the Saint Lawrence River surveyed by GPS in 1991 and 2005, is processed. The coordinate changes of these geodetic points allows for the determination of horizontal and vertical velocities leading to information about the crustal deformation of this region. The results show a southeast drift trend in the horizontal, and general uplift trend in the vertical. These agree well with previous GPS surveys conducted on Canadian Base Network (CBN) pillars in eastern Canada and with geophysical postglacial rebound (PGR) models.
