Fig. 12

Schematic image of the shallow slow earthquake zone of the Nankai Trough off Shikoku Island and Kii Peninsula. Gray bars represent the drilling points used in Fig. 5. Thin open arrow indicates the convergence direction of the Philippine Sea Plate. The areas with temperatures greater than 150 °C are almost corresponding to the expected source regions of future Tonankai and Nankai earthquakes (available at http://www.jishin.go.jp/main/chousa/01sep_nankai/index.htm)
