Taiwan rapid earthquake information release system. A major earthquake occurred near Chi-Chi in the Nantou county, Taiwan, on 1:47 a.m., Sept. 21, local time, about 90 miles south of Taipei. It is a major disaster. The quake struck at 5.28am at a depth of 10km in northeastern Yilan county. The death toll has exceeded 1800 and is mounting; thousands of houses collapsed making more than 100,000 people homeless. An advisory committee consists of about 10 seismologists and earthquake engineers assisted CWB in the planning of the program and the design of the instrumentation. At 23:50 on 6 February 2018, an earthquake of magnitude 6.4 on the moment magnitude scale hit Taiwan.The epicenter was on the coastline near Hualien, which was the most severely affected area, with a maximum felt intensity of VIII (severe) on the Mercalli intensity scale. 2019 Apr 2;10:734. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2019.00734. 2019 Aug 14;15:2301-2311. doi: 10.2147/NDT.S203909.

The source duration was about 4 s, which is short for an event with magnitude about M,The intensities recorded in Taiwan were shindo 4 in,A tsunami was triggered by the earthquake. Cooperative projects with the U. S. Geological Survey (1991-1995), and with the Southern California Earthquake Center (1991-present) greatly accelerated the implementation and successful operation.Taiwan is a small island, about 8% of the area of California or Japan. 11th World Conf.
The earthquake was produced by thrust faulting along the Chelung-pu fault in central Taiwan. The epicenter was located about 150 to 180 km from the coast of the border of Guangdong and Fujian, and about 150 km southwest of Taiwan. 2020 Jul 2;20(1):347. doi: 10.1186/s12888-020-02759-x.J Exp Clin Med.

Objective: Severe natural disasters can cause long-term psychological impact on the survivors. This is the first report based on some seismic waveform data and preliminary results that Lee had received. An earthquake in Taiwan on September 21, 1999 kills thousands of people, causes billions of dollars in damages and leaves an estimated 100,000 homeless. The second deadliest event with 2470 deaths was the Chi-Chi earthquake on 1999 September 21 with M L = 7.3 ( M w = 7.6; Shin & Teng 2001 ).

The Earthquake of 20 September 1999 in Taiwan George Pararas Carayannis . The 1996 Lijiang earthquake occurred at 19:14 on 3 February near Lijiang City, Yunnan in southwestern China. Continuously telemetered data from 60+ digital accelerographs were automatically processed in a dual PC-based system (for redundancy) in Taipei, using hardware and software designed and implemented in the early 1990's (Lee et al., 1996; Shin et al., 1996). The heights of the tsunami were recorded as 38 cm in Penghu, Taiwan and 18 cm in,"南澎列岛及邻近海域地质地貌与灾害地质分析" by 詹文欢, 张乔民, 孙宗勋, 唐诚, and 丘学林,Last edited on 16 September 2020, at 01:31,https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1994_Taiwan_Strait_earthquake&oldid=978625883,Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.
