A spatial slip distribution of the 1993 Kushiro-Oki earthquake (Mw; 7.6) is undoubtedly constrained using near-field data and the detailed aftershock distribution. This earthquake has peculiar features in that the slip on the fault plane is restricted within an extremely small area (about 40 km × 20 km) between the upper and lower planes of the double seismic zone in the subducting slab beneath Hokkaido. The total seismic moment, averaged slip, and stress-drop in this area are 3.3 × 1020 Nm, 5.5 m, and 4.2 × 107 Pa, respectively. This earthquake indicates that the region of the slab between the planes of the double seismic zone beneath Hokkaido is strong enough to sustain a stress of about 4 × 107 Pa. The slip motion of this event is consistent with retrograde slab migration along the Southern Kuril trench, and may represent a process by which retrograde motion of subducting slabs could occur.
