Decomposition of Genroku-shoreline heights into individual effects. In this diagram, individual terms of Eq. (24) are evaluated for the optimum model in case 350_4. The blue diamonds indicate the height data of the Genroku paleo-shoreline (the left side of Eq. (24)). The red squares indicate the calculated heights for the optimum model. The explanations of the other symbols are as follows: pink triangles and pink circles: the computed coseismic vertical displacements of the 1703 Genroku event and the viscous responses of the 1703 Genroku event, respectively (the fourth term on the right side of Eq. (24)), green triangles: the effects of the 1923 Taisho event (the fifth term), yellow squares: the permanent displacements due to steady plate subduction for 295 years (the first term), light blue diamonds: the displacements due to steady slip deficit for 295 years (the second and third terms), and crosses: differences between the Genroku paleo-shoreline heights and the computed coseismic vertical displacements, which indicate that the interseismic vertical movements are much different place by place
