Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We numerically modeled slow slip events considering actual configuration of subducting plate and distribution of slow earthquakes. Target regions in this study are Nankai trough in Japan and Cascadia in North America. Our model reproduced characteristic recurrence and segmentation of slow slip events. Long-term SSEs are also reproduced as observed in Japan. In addition, our model predicts that long-term SSEs occur at later stage in a seismic cycle in both of the Kii region and the Cascadia region, where they have not been reported yet. We also examined the effect of earth tides on slow slip events by numerical simulation.
