Three-dimensional topographic relief of the oceanic crust may control the occurrence of shallow very-low-frequency earthquakes in the Nankai Trough off Kumano

Abstract To explore a local relationship between geological structures and the occurrence of very-low-frequency earthquakes (VLFEs), a particular class of slow earthquakes with characteristic periods of 10–100 s, we investigated three-dimensional (3D) structural features using reprocessed 3D seismic...
