Research Abstract |
To understand slow earthquakes recently discovered in world subduction zones, we observed and investigated broadband seismic data mainly in the Nankai subduction zone. We determined accurate location of tectonic tremor, revealed statistical properties of tremor and slow earthquakes, and presented a model in which tremor zones are formed through long-term plate motion. We also presented a new plate model of the Philippine Sea plate.
