Fig. 12From: Distribution of low-frequency earthquakes accompanying the very low frequency earthquakes along the Ryukyu TrenchDistributions of low-frequency earthquakes (LFEs) in the Yaeyama and Okinawa areas. a Distribution of hypocenters (solid circles) in the Yaeyama area. The centroid moment tensor (CMT) solutions are thrust-fault events (Mw > 3.5), which were selected from the F-net catalog of the National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Resilience. The color of the CMT solutions indicates the depth of the event. Thick and thin dashed lines show the contours of the subducted Philippine Sea Plate, produced using SLAB1.0 (Hayes et al. 2012). Color map with blue long and short dashed lines shows the numbers of SSE faults (Nishimura 2014). b Same as a but for the Okinawa areaBack to article page
