It is expected that fundamental progress and breakthroughs will be made by studying this important 20th-century earthquake recording. This BSSA special issue will focus on results of investigations into all seismological and earthquake engineering aspects of the Chi-Chi earthquake and its aftershocks. We anticipate that the special issue will be published in September 2001, the second anniversary of the Chi-Chi earthquake.
