Earthquakes that occurred near the Boso Peninsula with JMA magnitude 4.0 or greater at the time of the Boso-Oki S-SSEs are plotted. The colour solid circles represent the epicentres of the earthquakes that occurred at depths shallower than 30 km determined by the JMA, and the colour of the circle indicates the depth of the earthquake. The blue dashed circle indicates the approximate location of the Boso-Oki S-SSE. The black dashed line represents the search area for the earthquakes, whose spatial range is 34.8°–35.8° N and 140.0°–141.0° E. a 2007 Boso-Oki S-SSE. The period of the plotted earthquake is from 9 August 2007 to 23 August 2007. b 2018 Boso-Oki S-SSE. The period of the plotted earthquake is from 5 June 2018 to 20 June 2018
