Tectonic setting of Nepal. Large and small red stars mean epicenters of the main shock and the Mw 7.3 aftershock determined by the US Geological Survey (2015), respectively. Open circles represent aftershocks from April 25, 2015, to May 17, 2015. White stars mean the epicenter of the 1833 Mw 7.6 event, in which A and S stand for the locations determined by Ambraseys and Douglas (2004) and Szeliga et al. (2010), respectively. Locations of historical large earthquakes along the Himalayan arc (Avouac 2007) are shown in an inset
