a Three megathrust earthquakes investigated in the present study (the 2004 Sumatra–Andaman earthquake (Mw 9.1; orange), the 2010 Maule earthquake (Mw 8.8; dark green), and the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake (Mw 9.0; purple). b–d The fault-slip model for each earthquake as well as the distribution of 1-day aftershocks (open circles) according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The focal mechanism solutions for major earthquakes are from the Global Centroid Moment Tensor catalog. The plate boundary data from Bird (2003) are modified
