Shear stress change due to the mainshock, aftershocks histogram, and land elevation. a Elevation profiles along three lines (orange, violet, and green) on the inset map. Topography is derived from SRTM (Farr et al. 2007). The blank triangle indicates Mt. Aso. The yellow-shaded area roughly indicates the extent of the Aso volcano. b Histogram of aftershocks within the first 3 days after the mainshock, projected on the strike direction of the fault model and sampled using a bin width of 2 km. c The shear stress change on the assumed fault plane calculated using the formulation for a static dislocation embedded in a homogeneous half-space (Okada 1992)
