Seismotectonic setting of the southern Ryukyu and locations of seismic stations. (a) Index map for the studied region. EU Eurasian Plate, PHS Philippine Sea Plate, RA Ryukyu arc, RT Ryukyu Trench. (b) Seismic stations from the Incorporated Research Institute for Seismology (open triangles) and the Japan Meteorological Agency (solid triangles) networks. Circles show the nodes used in the 3-D seismic tomography. IR Iriomote Island. (c) Distribution of relocated hypocenters (circles). Stations IGK, KUROSH, and HATERS are those employed for the receiver function analysis. Black triangles and red triangles denote short-period and broadband seismic stations, respectively. The shaded area shows the fault of repeated SSEs. (d) North-south vertical cross section of relocated hypocenters in the rectangular area denoted as X-Y in (c).
