Comparison of coseismic slip distribution between the Taisho and Genroku events. The gray scale contours represent the coseismic slip distribution of the 1923 Taisho event estimated from geodetic data (Matsu’ura et al. 2007). The superposed yellow green contours at the interval of 4 m represent the coseismic slip distribution of the 1703 Genroku event in Fig. 5a. The plate interface along the Sagami trough has three asperities (blue broken ellipses), and the central one is shared by the Taisho and Genroku events. The star indicates the epicenter of the Taisho event. The thin solid curves are the isodepth contours of the upper boundary surface for the descending Philippine Sea plate
