Slow earthquakes are slip events on faults that have longer durations than ordinary earthquakes. These events often generate seismic waveforms characterized by dominantly lower frequency than ordinary earthquakes. Over the past two decades, research in geodesy and seismology has revealed a variety of slow earthquake phenomena, such as slow slip events (SSEs), very low-frequency earthquakes (VLFEs), low-frequency earthquakes (LFEs), and tectonic tremor (tremor). Tremor is often considered to represent a swarm of LFEs (Ide et al., 2007;Shelly et al., 2007).Along the Nankai Trough, southwest Japan, deep LFEs and tremor were first identified in the early 2000s at depths of 30-40 km in the deep extension of the megathrust seismogenic zone on the plate boundary (e.g., Katsumata & Kamaya, 2003;Obara, 2002). This type of tremor has been observed in subduction zones worldwide (Obara &
