Seismic activity in the SE offshore Mie region. Circles are referred from the JMA unified catalog. Diamonds and stars are earthquakes that occurred on 1–2 April around the epicenter region, and these were determined via traveltime analysis by Wallace et al. (2016). Diamonds and stars denote earthquakes before and after the 2016 SE offshore Mie earthquake, respectively. The color of each symbol represents the hypocenter depth of each event. The plotted focal sphere represents our MT result of the 2016 SE offshore Mie earthquake. Isodepth lines of the upper surface of the Philippine Sea plate are shown at 10-km intervals (Baba et al. 2002; Hirose et al. 2008). The blue shaded area in the upper-right subfigure represents the expected source region of the Tonankai earthquake
