TIDAL TRIGGERING OF EARTHQUAKES IN JAPAN RELATED TO THE REGIONAL TECTONIC STRESS (2004)

In this paper is observed a correlation between the Earth tide and earthquake occurrence that is closely related to the regional tectonic stress. It is investigated the direction of the tidal compressional stress using shallow earthquakes occurring in 100 subregions of Japan for nearly ve years.
