Geomorphic evidence for prior earthquakes: Lessons from the 1999 Chichi earthquake in central Taiwan
The September 21, 1999, Mw 7.6 Chichi earthquake destroyed several thousand buildings and caused more than 2000 fatalities in central Taiwan. The earthquake occurred along the Chelungpu fault, a thrust fault on the western flank of the Taiwan fold-andthrust belt. The surface rupture was more than 90 km long, and vertical displacements ranged from 3 to 8 m. Although pre-existing scarps were iden...
متن کاملSuicides after the 1999 Taiwan earthquake.
BACKGROUND The impact of a disaster on extreme post-traumatic responses of the victims, such as suicide, remains unclear. We conducted this study to investigate the risk of committing suicide between victims and non-victims after the 1999 Taiwan earthquake. METHODS This population cohort study linked the National Health Insurance files, family registration, and death certificates. It consists...
متن کاملDeaths and Hospital Injuries Due to the 1999 Taiwan Earthquake
To assess risk factors associated with deaths and injuries in a major earthquake area. First, we used the official data including 824 seismic deaths, 271 serious injuries, and 302 moderate injuries to elucidate and compare the demographic, structural, and injury characteristics among the three groups. Secondly, a population based case-control study was conducted to examine how structural factor...
متن کاملEvidence for fault lubrication during the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake (Mw7.6)
[1] The ground motion data of the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake exhibit a striking difference in frequency content between the north and south portions of the rupture zone. In the north, the ground motion is dominated by large lowfrequency displacements with relatively small high-frequency accelerations. The pattern is opposite in the south,with smaller displacements and larger accelerations...
