Structural geology of a classic thrust belt earthquake: the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake Taiwan ( M w=7.6)

We document the structural context of the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake ( M w=7.6) in western Taiwan, which is one of the best-instrumented thrust-belt earthquakes. The main surface break and large slip (3–10 m) is on two segments of the shallow otherwise aseismic bedding-parallel Chelungpu–Sanyi thrust s...
