“…These geophysical observations along the Ryukyu Arc suggest that the typical locked zone is absent; however, GPS measurements from Okinawa Island, approximately 110 km from the trench, cannot detect inter-plate coupling of a seaward zone approximately 30 km wide along the trench 18 . A density structural model 19 of the Ryukyu Arc also suggested strong coupling along the plate boundary. Thus, the possibility of inter-plate coupling along the shallowest part of the plate boundary has not been excluded 11 , 18 , 19 , and the question as to whether the shallow plate boundary is coupled remains controversial.…”

“…Recently, Lin et al () showed that several geological and geophysical similarities exist between the Sumatra and the Ryukyu subduction zones (the stress regime, the presence of subducting reliefs and high gravity anomalies, and the distribution of the seismicity) and concluded that a megathrust event is highly likely, particularly in the central Ryukyu Arc. Moreover, based on a new lithospheric density model, Doo et al () inferred a strong plate coupling in southern Ryukyu.…”

“…The Ryukyu Trench was formed as a result of the subduction of the oceanic crust of the Philippine Sea Plate beneath the continental crust of the Eurasian Plate (Doo et al, 2018). The tectonic settings of the Ryukyu Trench reflect the evolutional processes of the building seamounts and structure of the Earth's crust.…”
