From: Different hydraulic responses to the 2008 Wenchuan and 2011 Tohoku earthquakes in two adjacent far-field wells: the effect of shales on aquifer lithology

Fig. 3

Spatial distribution of the static volumetric strain changes for the 2008 M w 7.9 Wenchuan (a) and the 2011 M w 9.0 Tohoku (b) earthquakes, which were calculated using the elastic half-space dislocation model (Okada 1992). The curved solid lines indicate inflation, whereas the curved dashed lines represent compression. The stars are the epicenters of the earthquakes, and the triangles represent the stations
