Climate footprints in the Late Quaternary–Holocene landforms of Dun Valley, NW Himalaya, India
The Himalayan mountain front is characterised by front parallel longitudinal valleys called Dun, that occupy the synformal troughs. The perennial glacial fed rivers Ganga and Yamuna experience first major gradient loss along the valley floor of Dehra Duyn and produce characteristic landforms and deposits by the gradational processes of streams that are often controlled by climate fluctuation.
