a Tectonic outline map of East Asia and the Japan Arc. G Goshonoura area, Si San’in area, iN Inakura area, H Hayama area (study area), Sy Sasayama area. The Median Tectonic Line demarcates southwest Japan into the inner and outer arcs. b Previously proposed APWP for southwest Japan, except the 100 Ma pole (Uno et al. 2021). The 100 Ma pole (187.8°N and 40.6°E with A95 = 5.7°) is a site-based mean pole calculated in this study using data from Otofuji and Matsuda (1987) and Kodama and Takeda (2002)
