    Review of paleoseismological and active fault studies in Taiwan in the light of the Chichi earthquake of September 21, 1999

    This paper reviews the research on active and earthquake faults in Taiwan conducted prior and after the 1999 Chichi earthquake. The Chichi earthquake plays as a turning point of the relevant studies, since the 1999 coseismic surface rupture exactly follows preexisting fault scarps, created in turn by previous seismic events along the Chelungpu Fault. This fact indicates that the precise mapping on the other active faults is fundamental to predict the location of surface rupture caused by large future earthquakes. Since 1999, many trenching studies have been carried out along the Chichi earthquake fault. A few of them demonstrates that the penultimate event is as young as probably only 200–430 years old; however, some others show a rather old age of several hundreds years or even older for the last faulting event before 1999. More trenching studies are necessary for such a long fault in order to understand the possible segmentation features and the correlation of the paleoseismic events identified along the entire fault length. In addition, we further discuss the offshore faulting associated with seismic event along the eastern coast of Taiwan, where the multiple Holocene terraces are well known

    First person – Yoko Ito

    ABSTRACT First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Yoko Ito is the first author on ‘The Golgi entry core compartment functions as a COPII-independent scaffold for ER-to-Golgi transport in plant cells’, published in Journal of Cell Science. Yoko is a postdoctoral researcher in the Live Cell Super-Resolution Imaging Research Team in the lab of Akihiko Nakano at the RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics, Wako, Saitama, Japan. She is studying the mechanisms of biogenesis and maintenance of the Golgi apparatus in plant cells.</jats:p

    Text, Medium, Afterlife: Intertextuality and Intermediality in the Works of Yoko Tawada

    No full text
    Text, Medium, Afterlife: Intertextuality and Intermediality in the Works of Yoko Tawada examines the roles of personal and mass media technologies in the works of contemporary German-language author Yoko Tawada. The study analyses the author\u27s prose fiction, wherein the possibility of limitless textual permutations - an afterlife of the text - is accessed through a web of intertextual and intermedial associations. The expression of an individual voice against a dominant culture\u27s mass media mobilizes a discourse of networks which emerges from the creative gaps and apertures revealed by the author\u27s deconstructive approach to language and literatures
