Fig. 8From: Seismicity distribution in the Tonankai and Nankai seismogenic zones and its spatiotemporal relationship with interplate coupling and slow earthquakesThe estimated velocity structure along the plate interface. Red and black dots reflect the relocated hypocenters within 2.5 km from the plate interface and the deep low-frequency tremor (Maeda and Obara 2009; Obara et al. 2010), respectively. White contours show the iso-depth of plate interface with a 10 km increment (Nakanishi et al. 2018). a P-wave velocity structure. Black lines show the iso-velocity contours from 5 to 8 km/s with 0.5 km/s increments. b S-wave velocity structure. Black lines show the iso-velocity contours from 3 to 4.5 km/s with 0.25 km/s increments. c Vp/Vs structure. Black lines show the iso-value contours from 1.7 to 1.9 with 0.1 increments. Thick dashed lines correspond to the isotherm contour for 150 and 350 °C (Oleskevich et al. 1999). Other symbols are the same as Fig. 1aBack to article page
