Savage, Tomomi Okada, Satoshi Matsumoto, Yoshihisa Iio, Stephen Bannister, Fracturing and pore-fluid distribution in the Marlborough region, New Zealand from body-wave tomography: Implications for regional understanding of the Kaikoura area, EARTH AND PLANETARY SCIENCE LETTERS, 10.1016/j.epsl.2022.117666, 593, 2022.09, Relative to more mature fault zones, immature fault zones that have accumulated smaller total displacement are characterized by less efficient strain localization and more complicated earthquake ruptures. How differences in maturation are reflected in regional-scale upper-crustal fracturing is not well known. Recently, complicated earthquake ruptures associated with immature fault zones, such as the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake in New Zealand, have occurred in areas that are in regional proximity ( 3% elevated fracture porosity compared to the adjacent area to the north. The elevated regional fracturing in the Kaikoura area is interpreted to result from more distributed deformation, and broader distribution of earthquakes, due to inefficient localization of strain from a regionally uniform strain rate field, highlighting the relationship between relative maturity of upper-crustal fault zones and lateral variability of regional upper-crustal properties. Plain language summary: When earthquakes occur in immature fault zones (areas that have accumulated small total displacement), they tend to rupture multiple poorly developed faults of diverse orientations. In contrast, more mature fault zones are associated with more developed, smoother faults and more localized earthquake activity. How these differences in maturation are reflected in the regional distribution of fractures is not well known. Here we use the arrival times of P and S waves from earthquakes to constrain seismic velocities (Vp and Vp/Vs) and use numerical models to relate seismic velocities to fracture concentration. We focus on the Marlborough region of the South Island, New Zealand, where immature fault zones recently ruptured during the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake but which also has more mature fault zones

We determined the hypocenters and focal mechanisms of the aftershocks very precisely in the period from October 22 to December 15. We then investigated the temporal changes in the spatial distributions of hypocenters and T-axis azimuths of focal mechanisms. The distributions of aftershock hypocenters and T-axis azimuths are basically temporally stable, except those in limited portions in the shallow layer near the western edge of the aftershock area, where rapid decrease of aftershocks with T-axis azimuths of WSW to west was observed. If fluid rises from the lower crust due to fault rupture, the locations of aftershocks and focal mechanisms may change over time, especially in the deepest part of the aftershock region. However, the temporal change in these parameters was not apparent at depth. These observations suggest that the aftershock activity of the Central Tottori Prefecture earthquake was controlled mainly by stress concentration rather than strength reduction due to high fluid pressure.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]..

Yuto Hayashida, Satoshi Matsumoto, Yoshihisa Iio, Shin'ich Sakai, Aitaro Kato, Non-Double-Couple Microearthquakes in the Focal Area of the 2000 Western Tottori Earthquake (M 7.3) via Hyperdense Seismic Observations, Geophysical Research Letters, 10.1029/2019GL084841, 47, 4, 2020.02, Earthquakes with non-double-couple (NDC) components are indicators of geometric fault complexity, anisotropy, tensile failure, and fluid flow effects. NDC earthquakes have been observed in volcanic zones and interpreted as faulting related to fluid effects in the hypocentral region. In this study, we provide evidence of the occurrence of microearthquakes with NDC components in a tectonic zone. Aftershocks of the 2000 Western Tottori earthquake revealed definite NDC components based on a polarity analysis of the first P wave motion data from a hyperdense seismic observation. We modeled these events using both shear faulting with tensile failure and multiple shear ruptures. Six of the eight NDC events were well modeled by shear faults accompanied with an opening tensile crack. These results suggest that pressurized fluid or a weak tensile crack may exist along the rupture zone of the Tottori earthquake..

The crust and mantle response to the magathrust earthquake induced changes in the mechanical conditions of the seismo-genic zone. Here we present important progress in the research into the seismogenesis of inland earthquakes. Stress, strain, strength, and structures are key parameters affecting the occurrence of earthquakes. In par-ticular, both the spatial and temporal changes in these parameters around the focal areas of the large inland earthquakes have been detected and modeled. These results have provided spatial potential evaluation in terms of future inland earthquake occurrence. How-ever, we clearly recognize that, in order to understand and predict the inland earthquake generation process, it will inevitably be necessary to unify the research on various spatial and temporal scales, from problems related to long-term stress loading from plate-relative motion to instant fault response..

insights from the aftershock distribution and the focal mechanism solution of the main shock, earth, planets and space, 10.1186/s40623-019-1032-8, 71, 1, 2019.12, The Hokkaido Eastern Iburi earthquake (MJMA = 6.7) occurred on September 6, 2018, in the Hokkaido corner region where the Kurile and northeastern Japan island arcs meet. We relocated aftershocks of this intraplate earthquake immediately after the main shock by using data from a permanent local seismic network and found that aftershock depths were concentrated from 20 to 40 km, which is extraordinarily deep compared with other shallow intraplate earthquakes in the inland area of Honshu and Kyushu, Japan. Further, we found that the aftershock area consists of three segments. The first segment is located in the northern part of the aftershock area, the second segment lies in the southern part, and the third segment forms a stepover between the other two segments. The hypocenter of the main shock, from which the rupture initiated, is located on the stepover segment. The centroid moment tensor solution for the main shock indicates a reverse faulting, whereas the focal mechanism solution determined by using the first-motion polarity of the P wave indicates strike-slip faulting. To explain this discrepancy qualitatively, we present a model in which the rupture started as a small strike-slip fault in the stepover segment of the aftershock area, followed by two large reverse faulting ruptures in the northern and southern segments.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]..

Sibson, Comparative tomography of reverse-slip and strike-slip seismotectonic provinces in the northern South Island, New Zealand, Tectonophysics, 10.1016/j.tecto.2019.03.016, 765, 172-186, 2019.08, Actively deforming crust and upper mantle around the obliquely convergent Pacific-Australia plate boundary in the northern South Island of New Zealand have been investigated by seismic tomography using data from a temporary c. 50 station network plus GEONET. The Alpine-Wairau Fault (principal component of the plate boundary at the surface) transects the study area, separating the Buller-Nelson (BN) province of active compressional inversion involving steep reverse faulting to the northwest, from the Marlborough fault system (MA) dominated by dextral strike-slip faulting to the southeast. In the course of this study, MA hosted the 2013 Seddon earthquake sequence (M5.9, 6.6) and the 2016 M7.8 Kaikoura earthquake. Active fault structures and present seismicity are associated with a heterogeneous distribution of low-velocity and Vp/Vs anomalies. Elsewhere, there is a general association between crustal seismicity and low-velocity zones along major fault structures within both the MA and BN seismotectonic provinces along which high Vp/Vs anomalies are locally conspicuous. Areas of active crustal seismicity are also generally characterized by high Vp/Vs, for instance the hypocentre and aftershocks of the 2016 M7.8 Kaikoura earthquake overlie a low-velocity region with high Vp/Vs. The coincidence of anomalously low Vp and Vs and anomalously high Vp/Vs with zones of high electrical conductivity defined by a previous MT transect is consistent with the notion that upward migration of overpressured hydrothermal fluid from the subducting slab at depth leads to a heterogeneous distribution of overpressured fluid in and around the base of the crustal seismogenic zone, weakening the overlying crust and promoting seismic rupture along major fault systems. It seems possible that the Association of mid-crustal low-velocity zones with anomalously high Vp/Vs may diagnose rupture preparation zones where frictional strength is being lowered by the build-up of fluid overpressure concurrent with accumulating shear stress, so that eventual fault failure is ‘dual-driven’..
15. Masashi Ogiso, Mitsuyuki Hoshiba, Azusa Shito, Satoshi Matsumoto, Numerical shake prediction for earthquake early warning incorporating heterogeneous attenuation structure
The case of the 2016 kumamoto earthquake, Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 10.1785/0120180063, 108, 6, 3457-3468, 2018.12, Schemes for predicting seismic ground motion, including real-time prediction (earthquake early warning [EEW]), ideally should incorporate the effects of the source, path, and site amplification terms. In this study, we incorporated the path term into the numerical shake prediction scheme, a promising approach to EEW, in an effort to predict future ground motions with a heterogeneous attenuation structure. We characterized the heterogeneous attenuation structure of southwestern Japan using multiple lapse time window analysis, then incorporated that attenuation structure in a simulation of ground-motion prediction for the largest earthquake (Mw 7.0) of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence. The heterogeneous attenuation structure led to improvements over a homogeneous structure: the root mean square residuals of the predicted seismic intensities were 12% lower for predictions 10 s ahead and 15% lower for predictions 20 s ahead, suggesting that the benefit of using a heterogeneous attenuation structure is greater for longer lead times. Our results show that details of the attenuation structure should be considered to lengthen the lead time of ground-motion predictions by the numerical shake prediction scheme..

The 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes, Kyushu Island, Japan, earth, planets and space, 10.1186/s40623-016-0590-2, 69, 1, 2017.12, The M JMA 7.3 Kumamoto earthquake that occurred at 1:25 JST on April 16, 2016, not only triggered aftershocks in the vicinity of the epicenter, but also triggered earthquakes that were 50-100 km away from the epicenter of the main shock. The active seismicity can be divided into three regions: (1) the vicinity of the main faults, (2) the northern region of Aso volcano (50 km northeast of the mainshock epicenter), and (3) the regions around three volcanoes, Yufu, Tsurumi, and Garan (100 km northeast of the mainshock epicenter). Notably, the zones between these regions are distinctively seismically inactive. The electric resistivity structure estimated from one-dimensional analysis of the 247 broadband (0.005-3000 s) magnetotelluric and telluric observation sites clearly shows that the earthquakes occurred in resistive regions adjacent to conductive zones or resistive-conductive transition zones. In contrast, seismicity is quite low in electrically conductive zones, which are interpreted as regions of connected fluids. We suggest that the series of the earthquakes was induced by a local accumulated stress and/or fluid supply from conductive zones. Because the relationship between the earthquakes and the resistivity structure is consistent with previous studies, seismic hazard assessment generally can be improved by taking into account the resistivity structure. Following on from the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake series, we suggest that there are two zones that have a relatively high potential of earthquake generation along the western extension of the MTL.

Matsumoto, Relative Source Locations of Continuous Tremor Before and After the Subplinian Events at Shinmoe-dake, in 2011, Geophysical Research Letters, 10.1002/2017GL075293, 44, 21, 10,871-10,877, 2017.11, Volcano monitoring systems are not always ready to resolve signals at the onset of eruptive activity. This study makes use of stations installed later to calibrate the performance of the stations that had been operated before the eruption. Seven stations recorded continuous volcanic tremor before and during the subplinian eruptions of Shinmoe-dake, Japan, in 2011. We estimated the source locations of the tremor using the amplitude distribution. The stability of the analysis was obtained by careful selection of time windows in which signals from a single source are dominated. The site effects and the regional attenuation factor were evaluated using tremor recorded after the major eruptions by a dense seismic array and a good number of stations. A tremor source changed its depth beneath the crater for 1 week before the major eruption, rising from a depth of a few kilometer to the water layer 3 times, each of which occurred following shallow inflation and minor eruptions. It is interpreted as migration of gas probably with magma, which further transported heat to the water layer and triggered the subplinian eruptions..
19. Azusa Shito, Satoshi Matsumoto, Hiroshi Shimizu, Takahiro Ohkura, Hiroaki Takahashi, Shinichi Sakai, Tomomi Okada, Hiroki Miyamachi, Masahiro Kosuga, Yuta Maeda, Masayuki Yoshimi, Youichi Asano, Makoto Okubo, Seismic velocity structure in the source region of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence, Japan, Geophysical Research Letters, 10.1002/2017GL074593, 44, 15, 7766-7772, 2017.08, We investigate seismic wave velocity structure and spatial distribution of the seismicity in the source region of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence. A one-dimensional mean velocity shows that the seismogenic zone has a high-velocity and low-Vp/Vs ratio relative to the average velocity structure of Kyushu Island. This indicates that the crust is relatively strong, capable of sustaining sufficiently high strain energy to facilitate two large (Mj > 6.5) earthquakes in close proximity to one another in rapid succession. Three-dimensional tomography of the seismogenic zone around the source of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence yields Vp = 6 km/s and Vs = 3.5 km/s. Most large-displacement areas (asperities) of the Mj 7.3 event overlap with the seismogenic zone and the overlying surface layer. Aftershock seismicity is distributed deeper than the conventional seismogenic zone, which suggests decreased strength due to fluids or increased stress, both caused by coseismic slip..

Satoshi Matsumoto, Takuya Nishimura, Takahiro Ohkura, Inelastic strain rate in the seismogenic layer of Kyushu Island, Japan 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence and its impact on earthquake science and hazard assessment Manabu Hashimoto, Martha Savage, Takuya Nishimura and Haruo Horikawa 4. Seismology, earth, planets and space, 10.1186/s40623-016-0584-0, 68, 1, 2016.12, Seismic activity is associated with crustal stress relaxation, creating inelastic strain in a medium due to faulting. Inelastic strain affects the stress field around a weak body and causes stress concentration around the body, because the body itself has already released stress. Therefore, the understanding of inelastic deformation is important as it generates earthquakes. We investigated average inelastic strain in a spatial bin of Kyushu Island, Japan, and obtained the inelastic strain rate distribution associated with crustal earthquakes, based on the analysis of fault plane solutions and seismic moments. Large inelastic strains (>10-7 year-1) were found in the Beppu-Shimabara area, located in the center of Kyushu Island. The strain rate tensor was similar to that of the stress tensor except the absolute value in the area, implying that the inelastic strain was controlled by the stress field. The 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence (maximum magnitude 7.3) occurred in the Beppu-Shimabara area, with the major earthquakes located around the high inelastic strain rate area. Inelastic strain in the volume released the stress. In addition, the inelastic strain created an increment of stress around the volume. This indicates that the spatial heterogeneity of inelastic strain might concentrate stress..

Masahiro Miyazaki, Satoshi Matsumoto, Hiroshi Shimizu, Triggered tremors beneath the seismogenic zone of an active fault zone, Kyushu, Japan, earth, planets and space, 10.1186/s40623-015-0346-4, 67, 1, 2015.12, Non-volcanic tremors were induced by the surface waves of the 2012 Sumatra earthquake around the Hinagu fault zone in Kyushu, Japan. We inferred from dense seismic observation data that the hypocenters of these tremors were located beneath the seismogenic zone of the Hinagu fault. Focal mechanisms of the tremors were estimated using S-wave polarization angles. The estimated focal mechanisms show similarities to those of shallow earthquakes in this region. In addition, one of the nodal planes of the focal mechanisms is almost parallel to the strike direction of the Hinagu fault. These observations suggest that the tremors were triggered at the deeper extension of the active fault zone under stress conditions similar to those in the shallower seismogenic region. A low-velocity anomaly beneath the hypocentral area of the tremors might be related to the tremor activity..

activity. Detection of spatial and temporal variations in the source location is important for understanding the
mechanism of volcanic eruptions. However, short-term temporal variations within a tremor event have not always
been detected by seismic array observations around volcanoes. Here, we show that volcanic tremor sources were
activated at both the top (i.e., the crater) and the lower end of the conduit, by analyzing seismograms from a
dense seismic array 3 km from the Shinmoedake crater, Kirishima volcano, Japan. We observed changes in the
seismic ray direction during a volcanic tremor sequence, and inferred two major sources of the tremor from the
slowness vectors of the approaching waves. One was located in a shallow region beneath the Shinmoedake crater.
The other was found in a direction N30◦W from the array, pointing to a location above a pressure source. The
fine spatial and temporal characteristics of volcanic tremors suggest an interaction between deep and shallow
conduits..
