Well. As you said you want reasons of dislocation aquifers. You can also look at some contributing factors like heavy industrialization. New Patan Area can be also a plausible cause for this. Again, as per reports, ground water is depleting by two meters on an average per year. Unplanned Tide of constructions have every threat of blocking underground streams.

Hi, Shukra,

Pls, explain what you mean with "dislocation of aquifers".

The way you describe the event I can only think of gaseous released by the earth quack (faults movement, for instance) and then gas pushing water to an upper aquifer position that allowed it to flow out, or simply pushed water out of the aquifer. After gas escaped completely, water was no longer pushed out.

Dear Jorge,

Thank you for the opinion.

My meaning of dislocation is "Position of aquifers may shift-up and down- due to earthquake".

Regards,

Well, other possible explanation could be the movement of soil particles beneath due to earthquake ground motion might have happened somewhat closer to liquifaction (since liquifaction did not occur).
