Uplift induced structurally controlled landscape development: example from fault bounded Jumara and Jara domes in Northern Hill Range, Kachchh, Western India

The Kachchh palaeo-rift graben at the western continental margin of India is currently undergoing active coseismic deformation in response to the periodic release of NE-SW oriented compressive stresses along the E-W trending intra-basinal faults. The seismically active Kachchh Mainland Fault (KMF) is the largest intra-basinal fault that is characterized by a narrow zone comprising a chain of domes and anticlines forming the rugged hilly...
