Time series from selected GPS sites. The locations of the sites are shown in Fig. 1(b). (a) Time series for three days, including the mainshock, at the 3004 site. (b) Enlargement of the time series at the 3004 site. Clear offsets were recognized for both the mainshock and the largest aftershock. (c) Time series from before the mainshock at the 0171 site. An offset for the foreshock and subsequent transient deformation were recognized. The solid curves are exponential-decay curves fitting horizontal components of the transient deformation.
