Fig. 6.From: Biased geodetic inference on asperity distribution on a subducted plate interface: a quantitative study(a) The source region in which an asperity is allowed to exist on the plate interface. Circular asperities with a diameter of 30 km are allowed to exist in the white area. (b) An example of the asperity distribution for α = 0.1 and (c) α = 0.5.Back to article page
