Fig. 4From: Spatiotemporal crustal strain distribution around the Ishikari-Teichi-Toen fault zone estimated from global navigation satellite system dataProfiles of the E–W strain rate components at a latitude of 43.0°N. a The original E–W strain rate component. Red and blue colors represent estimates of March 1996 to September 2003 (period 1) and January 2014 to December 2017 (period 2), respectively. Error bars are 1 − σ. Each colored line is the result of the linear trend fitting performed on each profile. b Detrended strain rate profile. The lower grey line corresponds to the altitude along the profile. c Schematic image beneath the profile areaBack to article page
