Deep plutonic bodies over low-frequency earthquakes revealed from receiver-side Green's functions
We imaged the slab and crustal structure of the Kii Peninsula in SW Japan using a receiver-function-like analysis. Positive impedance contrasts in the forearc crust correspond to the top surface or inside Kumano pluton, which may control fluid conditions around slow-earthquake sources.
