| Research Abstract |
The catalog of the non-volcanic tremor occurring on the interface of the subducting Philippine Sea plate is reevaluated and new pattern of tremor migration and spatiotemporal evolution have been clarified. The tremor activity pattern indicates depth dependency along the dip direction. This suggests that the frictional property on the plate interface changes with depth. In order to reveal the depth dependency of tremor activity pattern, we deployed 80 seismometers for two years in western Shikoku which is one of most active tremor source areas in southwest Japan, changes along the dip direction of the plate interface. Our analysis of local and teleseismic seismograms revealed that the oceanic crust just beneath the tremor zone is characterized by low-V and high Vp/Vs. The flat geometry of the subducting plate interface corresponding to the inactive part of tremor zone may suggest that the geometrical irregularities of the plate control the slow earthquake activity.
