Fig. 4

Real-time finite-fault model estimation result for the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake mainshock (M j 7.3) in 343 s after the event origin. Observed (black arrows) and predicted (white arrows) displacements for a horizontal and b vertical components. For the inversions, 200 stations were used in REGARD. The predicted displacements correspond to the final solution of the real-time fault model estimates. The red rectangle represents the estimated fault plane, and the blue arrow shows the slip vector. The epicenter of the mainshock is shown as a red star. The aftershocks in the JMA unified hypocenter catalog between April 14, 2016, and May 18, 2016, are shown as gray dots. Black lines indicate the ground traces of the active faults (HERP 2013)
