From: Large intraslab earthquake (2011 April 7, M 7.1) after the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake (M 9.0): Coseismic fault model based on the dense GPS network data

Fig. 3

Distribution of (a) horizontal and (b) vertical components of observed (solid arrows) and calculated (open arrows) coseismic displacements. Ellipses show the associated errors in the estimation of coseismic displacements. The model fault geometry is shown by the red rectangle with broken and solid lines, indicating the lower and upper edges of the faults, respectively. Open arrows indicate calculated displacements from the optimal fault model. Small gray circles show the aftershocks during the period from 11 March to 10 April 2011. Small blue circles show the aftershocks of the M 7.1 event during the period from the 7 April earthquake to 10 April, 2011. The A-A′ line (N290E direction) in Fig. 3(a) shows the location of the vertical cross-section shown in Fig. 4.
