Fig. 4

Examples of the spatial distribution of the dilatational strain rates during 1997–2000 in Phase 1 (left figure) and during 2016–2019 in Phase 3 (right figure). The negative values represent areal decrease and the positive ones represent areal increase. The triangles show the Holocene volcanoes listed by the Global Volcanism Program (Smithsonian Institution 2022). The focal sphere in the right figure is the global centroid moment tensor solution of the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku earthquake (Nettles et al. 2011)
