Abstract

Seismic activity of the Japanese islands region is a part of the global seismicity dynamics, and then it should be governed by its boundary conditions embedded in the global seismicity dynamics. Thus, the downscaling of the global dynamics may be applied for the seismicity of the Japanese region.
