Abstract

The 2003 Chengkung earthquake ( Mw 6.8) provided diagnostic evidence for a source model showing the deformation process of the seismogenic Chihshang fault in eastern Taiwan. The aftershocks show a fault‐bend at a depth of 18 km. Coseismic ground displacements recorded by strong‐motion records allow ...
