Furthermore, fault or fault segments having similar recurrence intervals and close rupturing time depict a tighter clustering pattern called synchronization. Synchronization of earthquakes on nearby faults or fault segments is well documented, particularly in the seismic supercycles along the Sunda (Philibosian & Meltzner, 2020;Sieh et al., 2008) or Japan trenches (Usami et al., 2018). The mechanism for synchronization of nearby earthquakes is poorly understood chiefly because of the lack of resolution of paleoseismic ruptures. Scholz (2010) proposes that to achieve earthquake synchronization, faults or fault segments should inherently have a similar repeating interval and be positively coupled through stress interaction. Scholz (2010) further points out that static stress interaction due to fault slip leads to desynchronization while dynamic stress interaction leads to
