The liquefaction attributes and crater geometry related to 2001 Bhuj earthquake has been reconstructed by trenching along large known craters formed near Umedpar in Kachchh. The study characterises the liquefied sediments in a large reactivated crater and distinguishes it from a non-reactivated crater located nearby. These characteristics can help in the interpretation of large paleocraters formed as a result of earthquake induced liquefaction.Keywords
