Abstract

A value of 5.2 km/s is obtained for compressional wave velocity in the upper crust in the vicinity of the Main Central Thrust where it crosses the Yamuna and Bhagirathi valleys in the Garhwal Himalaya. The data used consisted of the arrival times of compressional waves; recorded at five portable stations from nine earthquakes occurring in the region.
