Tectonic map of central to southwest Japan. The solid black lines represent the plate boundaries (Bird 2003), and the black triangles point in the direction of the motion of the subducted plate. The white arrows represent plate motion velocity vectors of the Philippine Sea plate with respect to the Amurian plate (DeMets et al. 2010). The red circle represents the GNSS station that serves as a reference station (Misumi). The three regions enclosed by dashed rectangles are the areas analysed in this study, which are shown in Fig. 2
