Transient deformation from the 2016 Meinong earthquake in Southwestern Taiwan revealed by Kalman filter analysis of GNSS time series

Key Points

• Transient deformation was detected post-earthquake, indicating significant geological changes.
• Using Kalman filter analysis, GNSS time series data provided precise spatial measurements over time.
• The study analyzed data from multiple GNSS stations across Southwestern Taiwan for comprehensive insights.
• Findings enhance understanding of earthquake impacts on the Earth's crust, aiding in future seismic risk assessments.
