Little Geodetic Evidence for Localized Indian Subduction in the Pamir‐Hindu Kush of Central Asia [PDF]
AbstractGeodetically derived velocities from Central Asia show that Northern Afghanistan, the Tajik Pamir, and northwestern Pakistan all move northward with comparable large velocities toward Eurasia. Steep velocity gradients, hence high strain rates, occur only across the Main Pamir Fault zone and with lesser magnitude between the northernmost Hindu ...

Quantifying permafrost ground ice contents in the Tien Shan and Pamir (Central Asia): a petrophysical joint inversion approach using a geometric mean model [PDF]
In the Central Asian Tien Shan and Pamir mountain ranges, permafrost is extensive, but in situ data on permafrost remain scarce. Quantitative analysis of permafrost's subsurface components – ice, water, air, and rock – is vital for not only discerning ...
