We have performed a detailed investigation on inhomogeneous structure of the crust around active faults aiming to improve our understanding of stress concentration mechanism on active faults. Moreover, we have investigated focal mechanisms and source processes of events occurring along active faults.Seismic tomography studies revealed a partial melting zone extensively distributed beneath the Moho along the volcanic front. GPS observations show that a zone of large ocontraction deformation in the plate conversion direction is distributed also along the volcanic front. Large earthquake focal areas are distributed aroud this large contraction deformation zone. These observations suggest that fluids in the crust play an important role in the deformation process of the arc crust and in the earthquake generation within it.

我们对活动断裂周围地壳的不均匀结构进行了详细的研究，旨在加深对活动断裂应力集中机制的认识。此外，我们还研究了沿活动断裂发生的事件的震源机制和震源过程。地震层析成像研究发现，沿火山前缘在莫霍面之下广泛分布着部分熔融带。GPS观测表明，在板块转换方向上也沿火山前缘分布着一条大收缩变形带。大地震震源区分布在这一大收缩变形带周围。这些观察结果表明，地壳中的流体在弧形地壳的变形过程和其中的地震孕育过程中发挥了重要作用。
