Abstract
AbstractThis study analyzed time series data from six GPS stations within the Tatun Volcano Group (TVG), a long‐dormant volcanic system in northern Taiwan, using multichannel singular spectrum analysis to search for potential spatiotemporally correlated transient deformations. A notable cycle of transient deformation was identified from 2015 to 2020, characterized by ground subsidence and uplift of up to 10 mm, accompanied by asymmetric horizontal motions directed inward and outward toward Dayoukeng, the largest fumarole and hydrothermal area in TVG. Evidence from earthquake focal mechanisms and gas composition, along with preliminary source modeling, suggest that these transient phases were likely caused by the pressure change of shallow hydrothermal systems beneath Dayoukeng. Further analysis of time series data from three long‐operating GPS stations revealed similar patterns of transient motion in the area from 2006 to 2015, indicating that TVG has experienced cyclical deformation, akin to many other volcanic systems worldwide.
