Tectonic map in and around the Tokai region. The black lines indicate the plate boundaries obtained by Bird (2003), Lindquist et al. (2004), and Iwasaki et al. (2015), and the triangles indicate the direction of motion of the plate to be subducted. The black arrows are plate motion velocity vectors of the Philippine Sea (PHS) plate with respect to the Amurian plate at the Suruga Trough (DeMets et al. 2010). The black isodepth contour lines with an interval of 10 km represent the upper surface of the subducting PHS plate obtained by Hirose et al. (2008). The black dashed lines represent prefectural boundaries. The red solid circles represent the GNSS observation stations used in this study. The time series data at Station 93079 is shown in Additional file 1: Fig. S1. The blue box represents the horizontal projection of the model source region that allows slips on the plate boundary
