Fig. 1.

Seismically determined finite-fault rupture models for the 2011 Tokohu Mw 9.0 earthquake. The top panels show finite fault models developed using (a) broadband teleseismic P-waves and (b) teleseismic P, short-arc Rayleigh wave (R1) relative source time functions, and continuous GPS recordings from Honshu. The bottom panels show time integrated beam power from backprojection of short period P-waves recorded over large station networks in (c) North America and (d) Europe. In each panel the white star indicates the USGS epicenter. The dashed lines in the lower panels show regional plate boundaries.
