ESTIMATION of PEAK HORIZONTAL ACCELERATIONS for the SITE of MUZAFFARABAD USING DETERMINISTIC APPROACH Mona Lisa1, Azam A
Pakistan Journal of Meteorology Vol. 1 Issue: 2, September, 2004 ESTIMATION OF PEAK HORIZONTAL ACCELERATIONS FOR THE SITE OF MUZAFFARABAD USING DETERMINISTIC APPROACH Mona Lisa1, Azam A. Khwaja† & Dr. Qamar-uz-Zaman Chaudhry2 Abstract: The site of Muzaffarabad is situated in the NW Himalayan Fold – and – Thrust Belt Pakistan, which occupies a 250 km wide and about 560 km long, irregularly shaped mountainous region stretching from the Afghan border near Parachinar, up to Kashmir Basin situated in the active zone of convergence thereby recording a large number of seismic events. Quite a large number of seismically active tectonic features like Main Mantle Thrust (MMT), Main Boundary Thrust (MBT), Mansehra Thrust, Jhelum Fault, Kotli Thrust, Raikot Fault, Thakot Fault, Riasi Thrust, Sangargali Thrust, Hissartang Fault and many others are located within this fold and thrust belt. Historical as well as Instrumental seismological data collected in the present study confirms the active nature of all these faults. In the present work, peak horizontal accelerations have been estimated for the site of Muzaffarabad using deterministic approach. The selection of this site has been based primarily due to the fact that this site is representing the location with heavy population, high seismicity and surrounded by active tectonic features. A total of twelve faults have been considered as a critical seismogenic features to the area and their maximum potential magnitudes and seven available attenuation equations, peak horizontal accelerations have been determined. On the basis of these maximum potential magnitudes and the peak horizontal accelerations, Main Boundary Thrust having peak horizontal accelerations of 0.47 g has been designated as the most hazardous for the site of Muzaffarabad. -

Geology of the Southern Gandghar Range and Kherimar Hills, Northern Pakistan
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Michael D. Hylland for the degree of Master of Science in Geology presented on May 3. 1990 Title: Geology of the Southern Gandghar Range and Kherimar Hills. Northern Pakistan Abstract approved: RobeS. Yeats The Gandghar Range and Kherimar Hills, located in the Hill Ranges of northern Pakistan, contain rocks that are transitional between unmetarnorphosed foreland-basin strata to the south and high-grade metamorphic and plutonic rocks to the north. The southern Gandghar Range is composed of a succession of marine strata of probable Proterozoic age, consisting of a thick basal argillaceous sequence (Manki Formation) overlain by algal limestone and shale (Shahkot, Utch Khattak, and Shekhai formations). These strata are intruded by diabase dikes and sills that may correlate with the Panjal Volcanics. Southern Gandghar Range strata occur in two structural blocks juxtaposed along the Baghdarra fault. The hanging wall consists entirely of isoclinally-folded Manki Formation, whereas the footwall consists of the complete Manki-Shekhai succession which has been deformed into tight, northeast-plunging, generally southeast (foreland) verging disharmonic folds. Phyllite near the Baghdarra fault displays kink bands, a poorly-developed S-C fabric, and asymmetric deformation of foliation around garnet porphyroblasts. These features are consistent with conditions of dextral shear, indicating reverse-slip displacement along the fault. South of the Gandghar Range, the Panjal fault brings the Gandghar Range succession over the Kherimar Hills succession, which is composed of a basal Precambrian arenaceous sequence (Hazara Formation) unconformably overlain by Jurassic limestone (Samana Suk Formation) which in turn is unconformably overlain by Paleogene marine strata (Lockhart Limestone and Patala Formation). -
Phytotherapy Among the Rural Women of District Abbotabad
Pak. J. Bot., 45(SI): 253-261, January 2013. PHYTOTHERAPY AMONG THE RURAL WOMEN OF DISTRICT ABBOTABAD GHULAM MUJTABA SHAH*, ZAFAR JAMAL AND MANZOOR HUSSAIN Department of Botany Govt. Postgraduate College Abbottabad *Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The present communication highlights the scope of ethnomedicinal plants for women’s health care in Abbottabad district, Northern Pakistan. Participatory Action Research (PAR) and field visits were planned to elicit information on the uses of various medicinal plants by women. Field trips were undertaken covering different rural and tribal populated areas of the district to document ethnomedicinal plants used by women for the treatment of various diseases. The women chieftains were accorded a significant role in discussions since they possess more cognizances about the utility of local herbal products in curing various diseases. The study revealed that 67 plant species belonging to 65 genera and 47 families are used in women’s folk medicinal system. The medicinal plants are mostly used to cure amenorrhoea, skin allergies, and leucorrhoea, as abortifacient, post delivery pain, dandruff, eczema, tonic after delivery and for breast milk secretion. All these herbal medicines belong to 65.67% herbaceous ground flora, 8.95% shrubs, 22.38% trees and 2,98% climbers. Resins, exudates, leaves, shoots, fruits, seeds, bark, tubers and roots are the plants components which are utilized as medicinal ingredients. Plant components are used fresh, dried or both. Further research in needed to isolate the compounds responsible for the observed biological activity. Introduction been done in this field by many researchers (Chaudhri, 1959; Farooq, 1990; Haq & Hussain, 1993; Hussain & Plants have been used in various traditional medicinal Khaliq, 1996; Shinwari & khan, 1999; Gilani et al., 2001; systems for the treatment of human ailments. -

Une clé de détermination des genres affines et des espèces reconnues est fournie, ainsi que la distribution, des commentaires écologiques et une illustration de la nouvelle espèce. KEY-WORDS: Inula – COMPOSITAE – Pakistan – Kashmir. Introduction The genus Inula L. ( s. str. ) belongs to the tribe Inuleae of the family Compositae including about 100 species, mainly distributed in Europe, Africa and Asia. The genus Inula was described by LINNAEUS with thirteen species (1753, 1754). The pro - tologue used by LINNAEUS was quite generalized as he did not give the weightage to the finer details of floral characters. Later on, this genus was treated by variuos workers from time to time (viz., CANDOLLE, 1836; BENTHAM & HOOKER, 1873; BOISSIER, 1875; CLARKE, 1876; HOOKER, 1881; BECK, 1882; HOFFMANN, 1890; GORSCHKOVA, 1959; KITAMURA, 1960; GRIERSON, 1975; BALL & TUTIN, 1976; RECHINGER, 1980; ANDERBERG, 1991; KUMAR, 1995). -
