We used GPS observations to obtain crustal deformations by volcanic activity of Miyake-jima and earthquake swarm around Izu-shoto since the end of June, 2000. The results showed movements extending in a northeast-southwest direction between Miyake-jima and Kozu-shima. In this report, we carried out an inversion analysis of the GPS results and suggested a source model to explain observed crustal deformations. Although it is very difficult to decide a unique model because of few stations and partial locations of the stations, the proposed model is consistent with the GPS results. Results suggest that a dike of about 7-8m in width intruded between Miyake-jima and Kozu-shima. In addition, the model is also consistent with results of dense GPS observations that was carried out at Kozu-shima in June, 2001.Journal
