Scaling relations for seismic momentM0, rupture areaS, average slipD, and asperity sizeSawere obtained for large, great, and giant (Mw= 6.7–9.2) subduction‐zone earthquakes. We compiled the source parameters for seven giant (Mw~9) earthquakes globally for which the heterogeneous slip distributions were estimated from tsunami and geodetic data. We definedSafor subfaults exhibiting slip greater than 1.5 timesD. Adding 25 slip models of 10 great earthquakes around Japan, we recalculated regression relations for 32 slip models:S= 1.34 × 10−10M02/3,D= 1.66 × 10−7M01/3,Sa= 2.81 × 10−11M02/3, andSa/S= 0.2, whereSandSaare in square kilometers,M0is in newton meters, andDis in meters. These scaling relations are very similar to those obtained by Murotani et al. (2008) for large and great earthquakes. Thus, both scaling relations can be used for future tsunami hazard assessment associated with a giant earthquake.
