Figure 2 – Seismotectonics of the July 24, 2021, magnitude-6.6 earthquake of Calatagan, Batangas, Philippines. Among the active strike-slip faults include the west/northwest-striking sinistral Lubang-Verde Passage Fault, and the north/northwest-striking dextral Aglubang River Fault on Mindoro Island. Located to the northeast of the Calatagan earthquake epicenter is the Macolod Corridor, a northeast-trending structural depression that hosts numerous active volcanic centers including Taal Volcano.
