Relationship between the average coupling coefficient and the slip deficit accumulation time. Black solid lines indicate lower and upper bounds from the moment budget of accumulation in the interseismic period and release in the coseismic and afterslip period. Dashed lines indicate lower and upper bounds of the averaged coupling coefficient from our study. The dark gray area (a-b-c-d) shows the probable range of the averaged coupling coefficient and the length of the interseismic period.
