Palaeocurrent Analysis of the Siwaliks of Panjab, Haryana and Himachal Pradesh
Subscribe/Renew Journal
The present paper deals with a study of thickness of cross-bedding units and palaeocurrents as deduced from cross-bedding foreset dip azimuths of the Siwaliks of Panjab, Haryana and Himachal Pradesh. All the three sub-divisions of the Siwaliks-Lower, Middle and Upper exhibit mainly southerly palaeocurrent directions and the variance of cross-bedding foreset dip azimuths seems to decrease from the Lower to Upper Siwaliks. Consistent southerly paleocurrent direction in the Upper Siwaliks suggests that they were probably deposited in a single continuous basin instead of two separate basins.
