Model of postseismic deformation by Freed et al. (2017). a Viscoelastic structure model used in the analysis by Freed et al. (2017). b Postseismic slip distribution explaining the 3-year postseismic displacements observed after the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake. The green stars are the epicenters of two large interplate aftershocks that occurred after the earthquake. The tsunami source area indicated by blue ovals is from Hashimoto et al. (2009). After Freed et al. (2017)
