Comparison between the observed and synthetic data. a–d Comparisons of the seafloor pressure gauge waveforms above the focal area, the far-field seafloor pressure gauge waveforms, the offshore GPS buoy waveforms, and the nearshore wave gauge waveforms near the coast. Gray and red waveforms are the observed and synthetic waveforms, respectively. Blue lines indicate the time window used for the analysis. Locations of each station are shown in Fig. 1. e A comparison of the observed and synthetic data of the geodetic dataset. Black and gray bars and arrows denote the observed movement of the offshore and onshore geodetic stations. Light and dark red bars and arrows are the synthetic ones. Note that the length of the bars and arrows differs between the onshore and offshore stations. The distribution of the seafloor vertical displacement calculated from the fault model is also shown
