Fig. 1

Location map of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake. The epicenter (the JMA unified earthquake catalog) is shown by the star. Red lines with ticks are the model fault traces of the Futagawa and Hinagu faults used for the inversion analysis. The tick interval is 10 km. Topography is also shown with active volcanoes (triangles; Sibert and Simkin 2002) and active faults (blue lines; Research Group for Active Faults of Japan 1991). Rough locations of the major shear zone detected by Matsumoto et al. (2015) and Aso caldera are shown by blue and red shades, respectively. The brown rectangle corresponds to the region shown in Fig. 2. The swaths of the ScanSAR images are shown in the inset. The gray shade in the inset corresponds to the area of the enlarged map
