Temporal gravity anomalies observed in the Tokai area and a possible relationship with slow slips
Abstract The water in Earth’s mantle is closely related with plate subduction and volcanism. Recent studies revealed that the mantle wedge corner at approximately 30 km depth holds high-pressure water, where many slow earthquakes occur. To quantify how such water behaves during slow earthquakes help...
