Effect of tidal triggering on seismicity in Taiwan revealed by the empirical mode decomposition method

The effect of tidal triggering on earthquake occurrence has been controversial for many years. This study considered earthquakes that occurred near Taiwan between 1973 and 2008. Because earthquake data are nonlinear and non-stationary, we applied the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method to anal...
