[MIS16-07] Outline of a scientific drilling project offshore SW Taiwan

Keywords:IODP, plate subduction, continental collision

Offshore SW Taiwan is situated in a unique tectonic setting where two plates transitions from subduction/accretion (south) to collision (north), that generates its characteristics on structural style, fluid flow/material circulation, deep biosphere, seismic activity/tsunami hazard, submarine slides, and energy resources. We are preparing an IODP scientific drilling proposal and introduce the outline of the project in this presentation.
