Displacement and various strain fields at the Earth’s surface calculated using the rectangular fault model beneath the Bungo Channel and its shallower plate interface. Red rectangles 1 to 3 represent the horizontal projections of the assumed fault planes (see Table 2). The green dot in (a) is the Sukumo station (021059), which is the closest to the Bungo Channel. The map was created by using the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT)27 (version: GMT3.4.6, URL link: https://www.generic-mapping-tools.org/download/).
