Source parameter inversion for recent great earthquakes from a decade‐long observation of global gravity fields (2013, methodology): “1 of Wieczorek and Simons [2005]. Therefore, we use the localized spherical harmonic coefficients within the bandwidth, Lh+1 to Ls Lh, from monthly GRACE L2 data.”
Tohoku earthquake: a surprise? (2011, background): “Simons et al. (2011) propose a 500-1,000 year interval based in part on the historic record.”
Numerical Simulation of the 2011 Tohoku Tsunami Based on a New Transient FEM Co-seismic Source: Comparison to Far- and Near-Field Observations (2013, background): “…Institute at the University of Tokyo, all indicated that the earthquake was predominantly thrust with a moment more than Mo ^ 4.0 9 10 22 Nm, and a variety of seismic, geodetic, and tsunami genesis studies concluded that the magnitude was indeed Mw = 9.0 (e.g., IDE et al. 2011; SIMONS et al. 2011).”
