Potential Inundation Hazards in the Taipei Basin Induced by Reactivation of the Shanchiao Fault in Northern Taiwan

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2010
The Shanchiao fault, located to the west of the Taipei Basin in northern Taiwan, is a highly active normal fault that has a left-slip component and fault length of over 40 km.

Rapid mantle flow with power-law creep explains deformation after the 2011 Tohoku mega-quake

Nature Communications, 2019
Large subduction zone earthquakes like the M 9.0 Tohoku earthquake of 2011 are followed by transient surface deformation. Here, the authors show this to be caused by rapid flow taking place in the asthenosphere due to temporarily decreased viscosity ...

A 3D finite-element mesh for modeling large-scale surface deformation induced by subduction megathrust earthquakes: Application to Chile

Seismica
Megaearthquakes (Mw > 8) cause continental-scale, long-lasting surface deformation, mainly due to viscoelastic relaxation of the asthenosphere. To investigate the links between this deformation and the slip history along subduction interfaces—including ...

Coseismic dislocation modeling by physical experiments

, 2013
Detecting coseismic surface deformation provides useful information about geometry and kinematic of the seismo- genic fault activated during an earthquake. Recent advances in inversion of geodetic data (e.g.
