Tectonic Geomorphology of a Part of Bilaspur Region, SW Himachal Pradesh

Morphometric parameters such as drainage, sinuosity character, gradient index (GI), Pseudo Hypsometric Integral (PSI), and longitudinal profile of the Satluj River and its tributary the Ali Khad have helped in delineating the NNW-SSE trending Ali Khad fault. Movements along this fault are manifest in the development of unpaired terraces, triangular fault facets, deep gorges and fault breccias. Normal faulting has been observed in the Quaternary sediments which reflect recent movements. Digital Elevation Model is proposed.
