Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Stresses Associated with the Aftershock Sequence of a Moderate Earthquake and Volcanic Eruption near the Izu Peninsula, Japan.
Abstract:In July, 1989, a seismic swarm, including an ML 5.5 mainshock on July 9, occurred east of Izu Peninsula, central Japan. Temporary seismic stations were deployed from July 13 to July 16; during this period, a submarine eruption and the largest aftershock (ML 4.8) occurred. Seismic activity during the period was analyzed using hypocenters and focal mechanism solutions obtained from both temporary and routine earthquake observations. The spatial and temporal distribution of solutions indicate that strike-slip and… Show more
