Abstract The 2011 March 11 Tohoku-oki great (Mw 9.1) earthquake ruptured the plate
boundary megathrust fault offshore of northern Honshu with estimates of shallow slip of 50 m …

Subduction zone earthquakes result in some of the most devastating natural hazards on
Earth. Knowledge of where great (moment magnitude M≥ 8) subduction zone earthquakes …

Subduction faults, called megathrusts, can generate large and hazardous earthquakes. The
mode of slip and seismicity of a megathrust is controlled by the structural complexity of the …

Episodic tremor and accompanying slow slip, together called ETS, is most often observed in
subduction zones of young and warm subducting slabs,,. ETS should help us to understand …

Rapid near‐source earthquake source modeling relying only on strong motion data is
limited by instrumental offsets and magnitude saturation, adversely affecting subsequent …

During the 2011 magnitude 9 Tohoku-oki earthquake, very large slip occurred on the
shallowest part of the subduction megathrust. Quantitative information on the shallow slip is …

We use the pore pressure distribution predicted from a waveform tomography (WT) velocity
model to interpret the evolution of the mega-splay fault system in the Nankai Trough off …

One of the important issues on the GPS‐acoustic (GPS‐A) observation for sea bottom
positioning is how to address the horizontal heterogeneity of the sound speed in oceans …

The world's most devastating local and ocean-wide tsunamis are generated by subduction
zone earthquakes, but the mechanisms for powerful seafloor uplift and tsunami generation …

Knowledge of the state of stress in subducting slabs is essential for understanding their
mechanical behavior and the physical processes that generate earthquakes. Here, we …
