Relationship of the (a) rupture area, (b) average slip, and (c) combined area of asperities with seismic moment. d Relationship between the combined area of asperities and rupture area. Open circles represent the interplate earthquakes listed in Murotani et al. (2008). Red closed circles represent the 2015 Gorkha earthquake. Gray lines represent the empirical scaling relationships of the interplate earthquakes proposed by Murotani et al. (2008)
