Shallow Structural Deformation Reveals Intraplate Seismicity Triggered by Graben Motion in the South China Littoral Fault Zone

Shallow Structural Deformation Reveals Intraplate Seismicity Triggered by Graben Motion in the South China Littoral Fault Zone

High-resolution seismic reflection profiles from the offshore segment of the Littoral Fault Zone (LFZ) near Nan’ao Island were analyzed to investigate fault activity and its potential link to the 1918 M7.3 earthquake. The data reveal a ~19 km-wide graben bounded by seaward- and landward-dipping norm...
