Aseismic deformation within fold-and-thrust belts: example from the Tsengwen River section of southwest Taiwan

Abstract We report a rarely observed case of steady aseismic deformation in the context of a fold-and-thrust belt, with a well-documented structural and lithological background. We focus on a 12-km-long section across the foothills of southwestern Taiwan, where about 23 mm/yr of westward compression...
