Spatio‑temporal characteristics of frictional properties on the subducting Pacific Plate off the east of Tohoku district, Japan estimated from stress drops of small earthquakes
Takuji Yamada; Meitong Duan; Jun Kawahara, The east coast of the Tohoku district, Japan has a high seismicity, including aftershocks of the 2011 M9 Tohoku earthquake. We analyzed 1142 earthquakes with $$4.4 \le M_{W} \le 5.0$$

that occurred in 2003 through 2018 and obtained spatio-temporal pattern of stress drop on the Pacific Plate that subducts beneath the Okhotsk Plate. Here we show that small earthquakes at edges of a region with a large slip during the 2011 Tohoku earthquake had high values of stress drop, indicating that the areas had a high frictional strength and suppressed the coseismic slip of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. In addition, stress drops of small earthquakes in some of the areas likely decreased after the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. This indicates that the frictional strength decreased at the areas due to the following aftershocks of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake, consistent with a high aftershock activity. This also supports that the frictional properties on a subducting plate interface can be monitored by stress drops of small earthquakes, as pointed out by some previous studies., Springer Science and Business Media LLC

1998 dense seismic refraction/wide-angle experiment in the eastern flank of the Ou backbone range, Northern Honshu, Japan
The Research Group for Explosion Seismology, In 1997 and 1998, intensive wide-angle seismic experiments were carried out in the northern part of Honshu Island, Japan to clarify various scale crustal deformation ongoing in the northern Hon-shu arc. The 1998 experiment was intended to reveal the crustal scale structural heterogeneity west of the western boundary fault of the Kitakami Lowland. In a 20km×50km area, 236 receivers were deployed to record 13 dynamite shots detonated on August 10. On September 3, M 6.1 event oc-curred in the vicinity of our study area. To investigate seismic velocity change associated with the event, another experiment was undertaken on November 8 using an additional dynamite source at the same place of the northernmost shot point in the August experiment. The data qualities of these two experiments are good, and first arrivals can be traced in almost the entire part of the experi-mental area. They show significant travel time change across the western boundary fault of the Kitakami Lowland. In the NS profile, a remarkable later phase is recognized, which is interpreted as a wide-angle reflection from midcrustal interface at a depth of 6－7km. This paper presents the outline of the experiments and fundamental data obtained., 東京大学地震研究所

Deep seismic refraction/wide-angle reflection profiling in Central Japan
The Research Group for Seismic Expedition in Central Japan, An extensive onshore-offshore seismic refraction/wide-angle reflection experiment was undertaken in 2001. The profile line was extended from the eastern part of the Nankai trough to Central Japan. The land profile line of 261-km length was laid from the Tokai district to the coastal region of the Sea of Japan, crossing an expected fault area of the forthcoming Tokai earthquake, an aseismic slip region north of the fault area, the Median Tectonic Line and the Niigata-Kobe Tectonic line. On this profile, 391 receivers were deployed to observe 6 dynamite shots with 100－500kg charge. Data obtained are of good quality, from which clear first arrivals are traced beyond 120－160km offsets. The most important feature in these data is strong reflection from the subducted Philippine Sea plate observed in the southernmost part of the profile. This paper presents the outline of this seismic expedition and fundamental data obtained., 東京大学地震研究所

Seismic expedition in the Hinagu fault area, Kyushu Island, Japan
The Research Group for the 2003 Hinagu Fault Seismic Expedition, The Hinagu fault system, Kyushu, Japan, is located in the westernmost part of the Beppu-Shimabara graben. This fault system is characterized by a quite high seismic activity and estimated to have a higher seismic risk among active faults in Kyushu Island. In 2003, we conducted an extensive seismic expedition in and around the Hinagu fault area. This expedition involves seismic refraction/wide-angle reflection experiment using dynamite shots and seismic array observation both for the active and passive seismic sources. For the refraction/wide-angle reflection study, two profile lines of 56.4 and 32.1km lengths were set in EW and NNE-SSW directions, respectively, on which 7 dynamite shots of 100－200kg charge and 359 recorders were deployed. The array observations, which were designed for high-resolution imaging of crustal scatterors and reflectors, were undertaken at 5 sites in the fault region. This paper presents the outline of this seismic expedition and fundamental data obtained., 東京大学地震研究所

Seismic refraction / wide-angle refection experiment across the Hidaka collision zone, Hokkaido : Ohtaki-Urahoro profile
Research Group For Explosion Seismology, The Hidaka region, central Hokkaido, Japan is characterized as an arc-arc collision zone between the Kuril forearc and the Northeast Japan arc. In 1999, an intensive seismic refraction/ wide-angle reflection experiment was carried out across the Hidaka region to investigate crustal deformation associated with the collision process. We deployed 297 stations on an EW profile line of 227-km to record 6 dynamite shots of 100～700kg charges. Remarkable travel time jumps observed in the western part of the profile indicate a velocity reversal beneath the foreland area of the collision zone. In the eastern part of the profile, travel time curves obtained show a severe undulation. Very clear later phases observed in this part strongly indicate the existence of mid-crustal reflectors within the colliding Kuril forearc., The University of Tokyo

Seismic refraction/wide-angle experiment across the Northern Honshu arc
Research Group For Explosion Seismology, An intensive wide-angle seismic experiment was carried out in the northern part of Honshu Island, Japan in October 1997. This experiment was carried out as an important component of a multi-diciplinary project aiming at elucidating the physical process of crustal evolution and deformation of the Northern Honshu Arc. We deployed 293 stations on an EW profile line of 150-km length to record 10 onshore and two offshore shots. Travel time curves obtained show a severe undulation in the western part of the profile, probably reflecting the crustal heterogeneity associated with the major fault systems developing on both sides of the backbone range. Rather clear later arrivals are recognized in the eastern part of the profile under the Kitakami Mountains., The University of Tokyo

Explosion seismic observations in Eastern Kyushu, Japan, II. : Ajimu-Tano profile
Research Group For Explosion Seismology, A seismic refraction survey was conducted along a profile from Ajimu, Oita Prefecture, to Tano, Miyazaki Prefecture, on November 14, 1996. This profile is almost the same as the profile of the survey conducted in 1994. The total length of the Ajimu-Tano Profile was about 230km, and three shots and 236 temporary observation sites were arranged along the profile. Charge size of all shots was 500kg. Record signals of the observation sites in a distance range of less than 120km were of good quality. Travel times of first arrivals indicated the complex velocity structure of the shallow part of the crust. Reflected waves from the deeper part of the crust or the upper mantle were also clearly observed. Analysis of the high-quality data sets obtained in the 1996 and 1994 experiments might reveal a fine image of the crust in this area., The University of Tokyo
