.... The deformation features observed in the temples suggest that the Bharmour area lies within the 1905 Kangra earthquake meizoseismal zone, and that the 1555 Kashmir earthquake rupture zone extended southeast toward Chamba. 1 Also at National Centre for Earth Science Studies, Post Box No. 7250, Akkulam...

... prior to the 1885 earthquake, possibly by other major earthquakes that affected the Kashmir valley, such as the 1555 Kashmir earthquake ( M w 7.6), of which the shaking in the Kashmir valley should have been much stronger than that of the 1885 Kashmir earthquake. The earthquake damage to the Pattan twin...

...S. Mitra; S. Wanchoo; K. F. Priestley Abstract We study the source mechanism and depth of the recent moderate earthquake, which occurred on 1 May 2013 in the Kashmir seismic gap. The epicenter of the earthquake lies southeast of the Kashmir valley and close to the meisoseismal zone of the 1555...

... southwest–northeast (SW–NE)‐trending zones on either side of the valley marks high‐strain regions potentially segmenting the Kashmir basin from its eastern and western neighbors. Depth distribution of these earthquakes along three profiles (A1–A1′; L2–L2′; A0–A0′) is plotted in Figure  11 . The Jhelum fault...

... they model. In the following, we describe the parameters of our choice of scenario ruptures. The two repeat earthquakes for which we estimate losses are the 1555 Kashmir and the 1505 central Himalayan ruptures. The latter occurred largely in Nepal, but the majority of the people affected by a possible...

... between the site of the 28 December 1974 Pattan earthquake ( Ambraseys, 1975 ; Pennington, 1979 ; Jackson and Yielding, 1983 ) and sites of damaging earthquakes to the southeast that occurred in 1555 and 1885 ( Iyengar et al., 1999 ). The mapped surface rupture partly follows the Kashmir Boundary Thrust...

... for a great earthquake to release accumulated strain ( Khattri, 1987 ; Bilham et al. , 2001 ). The most recent large ( M >7) earthquake known in and around the 2005 epicentral area is the 1555 Kashmir earthquake of M ∼7.6, but the damage from the earthquake is reported to have been concentrated around...

..., the Kashmir Himalaya is thought to represent a seismic gap because of a paucity of earthquakes in historical records ( Khattri, 1999 ; Hough et al., 2009 ; Schiffman et al., 2013 ). The largest earthquake of the past 1000 yr occurred in A.D. 1555 and is known from damage throughout the Kashmir basin...

...Walter Szeliga; Roger Bilham Abstract Previous interpretations of the 4 April 1905 M w 7.8 ± 0.2 Kangra earthquake assumed pure thrust slip on a gently dipping plane with dimensions on the order of 55 km down‐dip and 100–150 km along strike. However, the identification of recent surface slip...

... rupture mechanisms and radiated energy as the Gorkha event, the magnitudes of such events in the historical record would likely be underestimated. In particular, large Himalayan earthquakes with estimated magnitudes ( M w ) larger than 7.5 ( Bilham and Ambraseys, 2005 ), such as those in Kashmir ( M w...
