Fig. 6.

Cross section showing centroid depths for mainshock and aftershocks with conforming (gray hexagons) and non-conforming (white hexagons) focal mechanisms. The size of the symbols is proportional to the moment magnitude. The cross section shows meridional distance perpendicular to the subduction trench, where the location of the trench is approximated as shown by the thick gray lines in the map. The down-dip direction is to the left in the cross section. Plate boundaries are from Bird (2003).
