One crucial yet unanswered question about the 2011 MW 9.1 Tohoku-Oki earthquake and
tsunami is what generated the largest tsunami (up to 40 m) along the Sanriku coast north of …

The slip duration in a fault plane, also known as the rise time (T r), is determined in finite‐
fault rupture models (FFRMs) through the analysis of seismic source inversions using strong …

When the 2003 Tokachi-oki earthquake generated a large tsunami off eastern Hokkaido,
Japan, it was detected by cabled ocean-bottom pressure gauges (OBPs) installed within the …

We detected the mechanically coupled areas, or high stress rate patches, on the plate
interface in the Kanto region, central Japan, by analyzing the Global Navigation Satellite …

Large earthquakes rupture faults over hundreds of kilometers within minutes. Finite‐fault
models image these processes and provide observational constraints for understanding …

Anisotropic structures within the crust are frequently perceived to originate from stress-
induced cracks, which have been mainly estimated on land through different wave speeds of …

Many scientific discoveries have been made since the 2011 Tohoku earthquake (or Tohoku-
Oki earthquake in many papers including those in this SPEPS, occurred on March 11, 2011 …

Estimating the radiated energy of small‐to‐moderate (Mw< 5) earthquakes remains
challenging because their energy decay significantly during wave propagation. Even when …

The source imaging for offshore earthquakes using terrestrial geodetic data has a limited
estimation performance due to the low data resolution. One approach to overcome this …
