Chivomezi champhamvu 6.3 chinachitika Nepal ndi China pamene izo zinachitika ku Western Xizang pa 20:07:19 UTC pa kuya kwa 10.0 Km. Chivomezichi chinachitika m’dera lina losakhala anthu lotchedwa Plateau ya Tibet ndi malo apafupi ndi malo a chivomerezi ali 450.3 km kuchokera ku Saga, Tibet, China.

Kugwedezeka kwamphamvu ku Himalaya kumabwera makamaka chifukwa cha kugunda kwa mbale za India ndi Eurasia, zomwe zimasinthasintha pamlingo wa 40-50 mm/chaka. Kumpoto kwa India pansi pa Eurasia kumapanga zivomezi zambiri ndipo chifukwa chake kumapangitsa derali kukhala limodzi mwa madera oopsa kwambiri padziko lapansi. Maonekedwe a pamtunda wa malire a mbale amadziwika ndi kumunsi kwa mapiri a Sulaiman Range kumadzulo, Indo-Burmese Arc kum'mawa ndi kum'maŵa-kumadzulo komwe kumakhala Himalaya Front kumpoto kwa India.

Malire a mbale za India-Eurasia ndi malire ofalikira, omwe m'chigawo chakufupi ndi kumpoto kwa India, ali mkati mwa Indus-Tsangpo (yomwe imatchedwanso Yarlung-Zangbo) Suture kumpoto ndi Main Frontal Thrust kumwera. . Indus-Tsangpo Suture Zone ili pafupifupi 200 km kumpoto kwa Himalaya Front ndipo imatanthauzidwa ndi unyolo wowonekera wa ophiolite m'mphepete mwake chakumwera. Yopapatiza (<200km) Himalaya Front imaphatikizansopo zinthu zambiri zofananira kum'mawa mpaka kumadzulo. Derali lili ndi zivomezi zambiri komanso zivomezi zazikulu kwambiri m'dera la Himalaya, zomwe zimachitika makamaka chifukwa cha zivomezi. Zitsanzo za zivomezi zazikulu, m'dera lomwe muli anthu ambiri, zomwe zimachitika chifukwa cha zivomezi za 1934 M8.1 Bihar, 1905 M7.5 Kangra ndi zivomezi za 2005 M7.6 Kashmir. Zivomezi ziwiri zomalizazi zidapangitsa kuti anthu ambiri aphedwe ndi zivomezi za ku Himalaya zomwe zawoneka mpaka pano, zomwe zidapha anthu opitilira 100,000 ndikusiya mamiliyoni opanda pokhala. Chivomezi chachikulu kwambiri chojambulidwa ndi zida za Himalaya chinachitika pa 15 Ogasiti 1950 ku Assam, kum'mawa kwa India. Chivomezichi cha M8.6 chakumanja, chozembera, chinamveka kwambiri kudera lalikulu lapakati pa Asia, zomwe zidawononga kwambiri midzi yomwe ili m'chigawochi.

ZOMWE MUNGACHITE PA NKHANIYI:

The surface expression of the plate boundary is marked by the foothills of the north-south trending Sulaiman Range in the west, the Indo-Burmese Arc in the east and the east-west trending Himalaya Front in the north of India.
The India-Eurasia plate boundary is a diffuse boundary, which in the region near the north of India, lies within the limits of the Indus-Tsangpo (also called the Yarlung-Zangbo) Suture to the north and the Main Frontal Thrust to the south.
Seismicity in the Himalaya dominantly results from the continental collision of the India and Eurasia plates, which are converging at a relative rate of 40-50 mm/yr.
