Late Quaternary evolution of piedmont faults in the Darjeeling-Sikkim Himalaya, India

Key Points

• Tectonic activity is shown to significantly impact the quaternary evolution of piedmont faults.
• Geological evolution has been tracked across various layers of sedimentary processes and fault structures.
• Field mapping and sediment analysis were used to document geological features in the study area.
• Insights into historical geological dynamics can help anticipate future tectonic events in this region.
