Spatiotempoal Distribution of Source Rupture Process for Taiwan Earthquake (Ms=7.7)
Inversion was made using teleseismic data (provided by IRIS-DMC)
The source process is characterized mainly by a unilateral rupture propagation. The rupture propagated 45 km to the North and 25 km to the South. The maximum dislocation is about 6 m, and Average dislocation over (70 km x 40 km) is about 2.5 m. Fault mechanism: (Strike, Dip, Slip)=(26, 27, 82) [Fix]. (Yagi and Kikuchi, 1999)
