Sporadic low-velocity volumes spatially correlate with shallow very low frequency earthquake clusters

Sporadic low-velocity volumes spatially correlate with shallow very low frequency earthquake clusters

In the Nankai subduction zone a low-velocity zone (LVZ) has been detected. Here, the authors present shear wave velocity profiles to show that low frequency earthquakes correlate with the distribution of the LVZ in the Nankai subduction zone.
