Fig. 5

Result of second-step inversion that was using 0.05–1.0 Hz band-pass strong-motion data. a Total slip distribution. Dotted rectangles indicate the asperities following the criterion by Somerville et al. (1999). b Moment rate (\(m_{0}^{\prime }\)) functions. Backgrounds indicate peak rate of the moment rate functions. Fault elements with of moment rate peaks at least 1.5 times larger than the average over the fault (\(\bar{m}_{0}^{\prime }\)) are enclosed by dotted lines. Area 1 is enclosed by the purple dashed line
