Induced transtensional earthquakes after the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake in the compressional collision belt of western Taiwan by Lee, Timothy Ting-Yu, Chan, Chung-Han, Shyu, J. Bruce H., Wu, Yih-Min, Huang, Hsin-Hua

“…In this study, we demonstrate that a transtensional aftershock sequence was induced by the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake on a pre-existing normal fault, in the compression-dominated western Taiwan fold-and-thrust belt. We used relocated seismicity and earthquake focal mechanisms to show that this sequence is likely occurred along a subsurface fault that strikes N10°W and dips 80° to the east, at depths greater than 5 km. …”
