Figure 1. Seismotectonics of eastern Mindanao, at a depth of 10 kilometers, with recent seismic activity. This figure illustrates the Coulomb stress change resulting from the sequence of earthquakes off the coast of eastern Mindanao, utilizing optimally oriented strike-slip faults as receivers. Recent seismicity along the Philippine Fault is also shown. Data sources: Earthquake locations from PHIVOLCS and GFZ, focal mechanisms and location of active faults and trenches from PHIVOLCS, and SAR-derived topography from NAMRIA.
