An intraplate slow earthquake was detected in northernmost Hokkaido, Japan, by a dense network of the global navigation satellite system. Transient abnormal acceleration of <12 mm was observed during the period 2012 July to 2013 January (similar to 5.5 months) at several sites. The spatial displacement distribution suggests that a localized tectonic event caused localized deformation. Estimated fault parameter indicates very shallow-dip reverse faulting in the uppermost crust, with a total seismic moment of 1.75E + 17 N m (M-w 5.4). This fault geometry is probably consistent with detachment structure indicated by geological studies. A simultaneous earthquake swarm with the maximum magnitude M4.1 suggests a possibility that the slow slip triggered the seismic activity for unknown reasons. This slow earthquake is slower than its moment would indicate, with a duration-magnitude scaling relationship unlike either regular earthquakes or subduction slow slip events. This result indicates that even if the area is under different physical property from subduction zones, slow earthquake can occur by some causes. Slow earthquakes exist in remote regions away from subduction zones and might play an important role in strain release and tectonic activity.
