From: Short-term slow slip events along the Ryukyu Trench, southwestern Japan, observed by continuous GNSS
Short-term SSE fault models in the studied area for a period of approximately 17Â years. The hatched areas were excluded from the analysis because of the poor resolution in the used data. (A) Locations of estimated fault models. Broken rectangles indicate the estimated rectangular faults. Solid lines represent their upper edges. Green vectors represent slip vectors. Yellow shaded regions indicate source areas of past and anticipated megathrust earthquakes (Headquarters for Earthquake Research Promotion [2001]; Nakamura [2009]; Goto [2013]). (B) Cumulative slip of the short-term SSEs. Blue lines are contours of cumulative slip with an interval of 10Â cm. (C) Cumulative number of the short-term SSEs.
