The Taiwan arc-continent collision involves four geodynamic processes: intra-oceanic subduction; initial arc-continent collision; advanced arc-continent collision; and arc collapse/subduction. These processes now occur simultaneously in 19-24 o 30'N but have operated sequentially southward since the Late Miocene. Although the geological and geophysical features appear to change progressively...
The thick sedimentary and meta-sedimentary rocks west of the Eocene-Paleozoic metamorphic basement of Taiwan represent an accretionary prism developed between the Eurasian continent and the Philippine Sea plate. The accretionary prism consists of a subduction wedge in the east and a collision prism in the west. The deep-marine subduction wedge developed during the eastward subduction of the South...
