Late Holocene paleoearthquake activity in the middle part of the Longitudinal Valley fault, eastern Taiwan

The Longitudinal Valley fault in eastern Taiwan is the most important arc–continent collisional boundary fault between the Philippine Sea plate and the Eurasian continent. The 50% amount of collisional deformation partitioned on the fault has considered implications for seismic hazard. Our paleoseismological work on the middle segment (the Juisui fault) of the Longitudinal Valley fault has shown that the fault occurred intensive seismicity of four paleoearthquakes of 1951 AD, P2 event<260 cal yr BP, 150More
