We discover a pronounced fanning toward the southwest in the lineaments. Six major offsets of lineaments have been identified, with the following trends: N60°E, N60°E, N65°E, N85°E, and N40°W. The trends of the offsets can all be correlated with faults predicted by experimental models of right-lateral strikeslip deformation. This paper presents a detailed submarine topographic lineament analysis in southwestern Taiwan and provides additional evidence of Lu's model for the vast offshore area.application/pdf1123595 bytesapplication/pdfen-USSeismic section; Strike-slip fault; Topographic lineament[SDGs]SDG14Coastal zones; Mathematical models; Offshore structures; Seismology; Shear deformation; Digital topography; Seismic sections; Strike-slip faults; Topographic lineament; Marine biologyTectonic Significance of Topographic Lineament Analysis Using Artificial Illumination: Offshore Southwestern Taiwanjournal article2-s2.0-7044232099http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/173943/1/29.pdf
