Table 1. List of earthquakes, and their source models, used for calculating coseismic Coulomb stress changes. M in the table header refers to the JMA magnitude. We basically consider large earthquakes (M ≥ 6.5) that occurred after 1923, which is the beginning year of the JMA earthquake catalog. However we include the source of the 1891 Nobi earthquake, which is historically the largest inland shock in Japan and widely impacted the regional seismicity, and a few destructive inland shocks slightly smaller than M 6.5. See more details in the text.
