The Milun fault Drilling and All-inclusive Sensing (MiDAS) 

The Milun fault Drilling and All-inclusive Sensing (MiDAS) project successfully drilled into a recent ruptured active fault, and setup a cross-fault zone observatory using various state-of-the-art sensors to build up a long-term monitoring with close-in data for understanding of earthquakes nucleation, propagation and energy partition. This astonishing high-resolution data (spatial, and temporal resolution of 4 m, and 1000Hz, respectively) successfully captures the velocity changes associated with lithology, fault zone structure at depth, and, thus, the hints to the site responses of subsurface to surface.

​

This website is targeted to provide technical information of MiDAS:

  1. Event diary.

  2. Mapping between the trace data and the geographic location.

​

This project is led by Prof. Kuo-Fong Ma (Academia Sinica) and cooperated with 

Hsin-Hua Huang (Academia Sinica)

Chin-Jen Lin (Academia Sinica, technical support)

Chin-Shang Ku (Academia Sinica, data management)

Li-Wei Kuo (National Central University, drilling core)

Yen-Yu Lin (National Central University, borehole seismometer)
