A west-dipping seismogenic boundary beneath the Chia-Yi area of western Taiwan
Taiwan is one of the most typical arc-continental collision systems in the world. The Taiwan orogeny is often explained by the thin-skin model, where a shallow decollement, with depths of less than 10 km, is considered as the crustal deformation boundary for generating significant mountains on the i...
