Abstract:Large dip‐slip earthquakes have a major contribution to mountain building while earthquake‐induced landslides lower mountains simultaneously. The amount of the coseismic uplift and landslides may dominate long‐term mountain evolution. However, how earthquakes contribute to mountain evolution through coseismic uplift and landslides is less constrained in real cases. We present the regional coseismic uplift of the 1999 Mw7.6 Chi‐Chi earthquake by using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and GPS. The coseismic… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
