Coseismic slip distribution obtained using the friction model shown in Fig. 2a Simulated coseismic slip distribution of the M = 8.95 earthquake that occurred at T′ = 0 years in Cycle 3. Magenta and white crosses: locations used in Fig. 3. The large square surrounding the magenta cross indicates the area described in (b) and (c). b Simulated coseismic slip distribution for one of the events in the Miyagi-ken-Oki (MYG) patch in the last stage of the M ~ 9 earthquake cycle, the M = 7.34 earthquake at T′ = − 1.7 years in Cycle 3. Magenta cross: location used in Fig. 3. c Simulated coseismic slip distribution for one of the first events after an M ~ 9 earthquake, the M = 7.35 earthquake at T′ = 49.4 years in Cycle 3
