It has long been believed that a M6.1 earthquake occurred on November 14, 1831 in Saga, southwest Japan. The event relies on a single entry from note of “Tenpo Zakki,” which is a collection of miscellaneous notes between 1831 and 1844. Here we propose that the location for the earthquake is likely misinterpreted. Reexamination of the note shows that the earthquake occurred on November 13, 1831, as was recognized in 1919. The original location was thought to be in Saga because according to the note the earthquake was reported from “Hizen-no-kami” (lord of Saga). Analyses of the time it took for the news to reach Edo (Tokyo) show that the location of the earthquake is possibly not Saga, but Aizu, in northeast Japan. The note of “Tenpo Zakki” shows that the information of the event reached Edo in 5 days. However, it was impossible to deliver a letter from Saga to Edo in 5 days at that time. No description on the earthquake was found in diaries written around Saga. “Tenpo Zakki” might have mistaken “Higo-no-kami” (lord of Aizu) for “Hizen-no-kami.” This result contributes to improvement of the list of historical earthquakes for Japan.

We investigate the rupture process of Hyuga-nada earthquake of April 1, 1968 (MJMA 7.5). Applying a multiple-time window inversion scheme to teleseismic body wave data, we obtained a detailed spatio-temporal distribution of moment release. The main source parameters are: the seismic moment=2.5×1020[Nm]; the rupture area=64×48[km2]; the stress drop=3.4[MPa]; the focal depth=15[km]. The rupture consists of three major asperities: the first asperity centring about 10km south and 20km west from the hypocenter and having a maximum slip of 4.0m, the second one centring about 8km north and 5km east from the hypocenter and having a maximum slip of 3.0m, and the third one centring about 50km west from the hypocenter and having a maximum slip of 3.2m. We compared the rupture area with that of a few large events (M>6.5) subsequent to the 1968 event. Then we found that the above three asperities of 1968 event coincide with the low seismicity area in the Hyuga-nada region, and do not overlap with the source area of the subsequent large events (M>6.5). This rupture pattern and the seismicity suggest that an area of slab bending as well as fracture of the slab can behave as barriers during earthquake rupture. These barriers may control the maximum size of earthquake source in this region.

<p>In a small area off the eastern coast of Osumi Peninsula, eight events have been observed from January 2001 to March 2019, in which <i>M</i>3 to <i>M</i>4 earthquakes occurred successively in a short time, from several seconds to several minutes. Based on the waveform correlation and cluster analysis, we found three seismic patches (asperities) which generate small repeating earthquakes in this area. The arrival time differences between P and S waves of the three patches' earthquakes observed at NARU station suggested that these patches were close to each other. Furthermore, we confirmed that many earthquakes originated from these patches were included in the successive occurrences of earthquakes in this area. These results suggest that the earthquake from one of these patches affects another patch in the immediate vicinity and triggers successive occurrences of earthquakes.</p>

A precise relocation of earthquakes using data listed in the Seismological Bulletin of the Japan Meteorological Agency reveals a double-planed structure of the deep seismic zone in the whole region of the northeastern Japan arc. The two planes are nearly parallel to each other and the distance between them is from 30km to 40km. The lower seismic plane appears at depths greater than about 60km in the Tohoku District, northeastern Japan, while that appears at depths greater than about 90km in the Kanto District.Some interesting characteristics are found from focal mechanism study for large earthquakes and microearthquakes in the upper seismic plane. In the Tohoku District, the predominant fault-plane solution for earthquakes shallower than about 60km is low angle thrust faulting and that for deeper earthquakes is down dip compression. In the Kanto District, similar characteristics are found for earthquakes in the upper seismic plane, except that the depth at which the predominant focal mechanism changes is about 90km. This difference may be closely associated with the subduction of the Philippine Sea plate overriding the Pacific plate in the Kanto District.In the whole region of the northeastern Japan arc, the earthquakes in the lower seismic plane is characterized by down dip extensional fault. Down dip compressional and down dip extensional earthquakes form a pair in the double-planed deep seismic zone, since the depth at which the lower seismic plane appears is consistent with the depth at which the predominant focal mechanism changes in the upper seismic plane.The depth to the upper seismic plane just beneath the volcanic front is about 100km in the Tohoku District, whereas the depth is much deeper in the Kanto District, where the triple junction among the Philippine Sea plate, the Pacific plate and the Eurasian plate is situated.

There is a remarkable discrepancy in the previous results on the temporal variations in seismic wave velocities related with the Matsushiro earthquake swarm that have been studied by many investigators. A result from the <i>V_p</i>/<i>V_s</i> method shows co-seismic anomaly, while all the data from the P-residual method indicate precursory anomaly.<br>To make clear the cause of this discrepancy, temporal changes in <i>V_p</i>/<i>V_s</i> ratio was reexamined by using the different set of data source from previous studies. Two kinds of velocity anomalies, namely, precursory and co-seismic or post-seismic anomaly were detected as the same as in the previous investigations.<br>Combining the present data with the data from previous studies, it was inferred that the precursory anomaly in seismic velocities might occur mainly in the zone of lower crust to the uppermost mantle, while the co-seismic or post-seismic anomaly might occur in the upper part of crust whose depth is not greater than 10km, underneath at and adjacent area of the Matsushiro earthquake swarm. In other words, the anomalous zone must have migrated from the deeper parts to the upper crust about the time when the swarm began.<br>The origin of these two anomalies were interpreted by a new model which takes thermal effects into consideration for earthquake occurrences.

A seismic refraction experment was carried out around the Bandai volcanic area, the southern part of the Tohoku District, by using a large capacity (9 liter air chamber) marine airgun. Shallow crustal structure (down to about a 4km depth) obtained along the 30km-length profile shows the swelling of the second layer with P-wave velocity more than about 4.0km/s just beneath Bandai volcano in parallel to the surface topography. The swelling of the second layer by about 1km is in good agreement with that of the basement estimated from the Bouguer anomaly.Seismic signals from the surrounding telemetered stations of Tohoku University at epicentral distances from 10km to 230km, are continuously recorded during the airgun experiments. In the stacked records we can detect the clear first P arrivals from the airgun shots at the stations with distances ranging up to 150km, which shows the usefullness of the marine airgun for studying the crustal structure on land. Anomalously late P arrivals or unclear P arrivals are observed for the ray paths which cross active volcanoes. This result and the shallow crustal structure obtained along the refraction profile suggest the existence of the anomalous zone beneath Bandai volcano at depths deeper than about 4km.

After the 2011 Tohoku-oki megathrust earthquake of Mw 9.0, we observed tens of thousands of inland and volcanic earthquakes all over the Japan Islands, which are not confined within the aftershock area of off the Pacific coast of Tohoku region. This reminds us to evaluate the earthquake activity in a much wider sense, discarding an ordinary idea of the foreshock-mainshock-aftershock activity within a limited aftershock area of a particular earthquake. There occurred several megathrust earthquakes worldwide in the last one hundred years. We have studied their significant events before and after the earthquakes based on our new hypothesis on the earthquake generating zone with the distinct difference between Along-dip Double Segmentation (ADDS) and Along-strike Single Segmentation (ASSS). In summary, some of significant aftershocks (larger than Mw 7.5) of ADDS megathrusts are those (Type I) in and near outer-rises, where some are dip-slip normal faultings and some are strike-slip faultings within subducting oceanic plates with component of normal fault. These outer-rise earthquakes are considered to be controlled by the slab-pull of descending slabs of oceanic plates induced by the reduction of plate couplings by megathrusts. In addition, some are also significant (Type II) along the plate interfaces within aftershock areas and those extending aftershock areas similarly to the corresponding megathrusts. On the other hand, aftershocks of ASSS occurred in and near corresponding aftershock areas and significant and or disastrous outer-rise events are rare. Some large (not significant) inland earthquakes are also known for both ADDS and ASSS megathrusts. All these results are not dependent on whether the subduction geometry is oblique or orthogonal.

We observed ultramicroearthquakes with a magnitude (J. M. A. scale) down to -3, by the highly sentitive aftershock observation of the Western Nagano Prefecture Earthquake of Sep. 14, 1984 (M=6.8).The seismometer used is a 2Hz velocity-type transducer with flat response up to about 1kHz. Signals were recorded continuously on an analog data recorder. The overall frequency response of the observation system is flat from 2 to about 270Hz (-3dB point). Its highest sensitivity for the ground velocity was 18300V/(cm/s).About 10, 000 earthquakes were recorded for the period of the observation. From them, the shocks of which S-P times <0.6s were chosen and analyzed. The total number of the earthquakes analyzed is 183. Their frequency-magnitude distribution and frequency-S-P time distribution were investigated. The earthquakes analyzed are distributed in magnitude down to -3. Their S-P times are distributed down to 0.05s.

We studied the source model and the underground velocity structure model for quantitative estimation of long-period (3-20s) ground motion in the Oita Plain due to a hypothetical Nankai earthquake. First, the deep subsurface velocity structure of the Oita sedimentary basin was validated by a long-period ground motion simulation of the 2000 western Tottori earthquake records. The simulated waveforms reproduced the amplification and duration of the observed waveforms and peak periods of pseudo response spectra at strong motion stations both in and out the Oita Plain reasonably well. Then we combined the subsurface velocity structure with a crustal velocity structure and performed long-period ground motion simulations of a Nankai earthquake by a three-dimensional finite-difference method. The source model has a total area of 34,000 km<SUP>2</SUP> with total seismic moment of 6.24&times;10<SUP>21</SUP> Nm (<I>M</I><SUB>W</SUB> 8.5). In addition to the scenario in which rupture propagates from the east (east-hypo model) that have been generally accepted, we investigated another from the west (west-hypo model). For the east-hypo model, the maximum amplitudes of the simulated horizontal ground motion in the Oita plain was three to four times as large as that on a rock site beside the plain. Especially in the bay area, the maximum ground motion reached 100cm/s and the pseudo velocity response spectra at period 6-8s were more than 400cm/s. On the other hand, the ground motion simulated by the west-hypo model was roughly one fifth smaller than that by the east-hypo model. It is also pointed out that in the east-hypo model simulation, the seismic waves generated by the two asperities near to the Oita plain are enlarged due to the directivity effect and amplified and prolonged by the sedimentary basin structure.

The lowlands of southwestern islands of Okinawa are dotted with many blocks of coral which were quarried and conveyed from the reef on the floor of the sea, by the giant tsunami of April 24, 1771. We investigated the distribution of blocks in Ishigaki Island. We chose the third biggest block in this island, the approximate weight of which is 750 tons. It lies some 2.5 kilometers away from the nearest coast line, and its location reaches some 30 meters above sea level. We pierced a tunnel through the base of this huge block, which is the hardest to be imagined to have been conveyed by the tsunami, and demonstrated that this block takes no root. In the opinion of some persons, these blocks are the negro heads of the erosion type. But our tunnel crushed down this opposition. One is apt to feel that this capacity of the tsunami is rather fantastic in view of wave dynamics. But, for example, the giant wave observed in Lituya Bay (Alaska) in 1958, the energy of which was ascertained accurately, could have conveyed the supposed coral pillar whose cross section is some 27.3mm<SUP>2</SUP>, to the same position of the above-mentioned block, losing only 0.73% of its wave energy.<BR>Then we considered the action of the tsunami of 1771 upon the tied-island called Funakuy&acirc; in Ishigaki Island. We confirmed that it is traditionally said that the northern part of this island has never been isolated from the main part of the island.

On May 21, 1792, a gigantic collapse of Mt. Mayuyama in Shimabara Peninsula, Kyushu, occurred. Following this event, a severe tsunami of about 10 meters in height was generated by the landslide and attacked the coast of Ariake-kai, killing more than 14, 500 persons. Many historical documents tell us the phenomena of this tsunami in fair details, so that we attempted to reconstruct a numerical model of the tsunami consistent with the historical data. In the numerical computation, a finite difference method with a leap-frog system is adapted, and two kinds of source input are tried; one is the prescrived water mass transport normal to shore line and the other the vertical displacement of sea bottom. When the transport of 18, 000m³/min (current speed-20m/sec) per unit length of shore on the center line of landslide area is assumed to be continued during 2 to 4 min, the computed waves agree fairly well with the real tsunami behaviors, the height of tsunami in various places along the coast and the order of the maximum crest in the sequence of a wave train. Therefore, it seems probable that the extraordinary flow of water normal to the shore occurred by some physical mechanisms of the mountain collapse.<br>The energy of this tsunami is estimated to be about 5&times;10¹⁹erg, and this is about 1/100-1/1000 of the available potential energy of the slided material due to the collapse of the mountain. It is significant that the tsunami energy is several times larger than that of the 1968 Hyuganada Earthquake (<i>M</i>=7.5). The wave spreaded over a wide area and gave distructive damages to the coast more than 120km on both side of Ariake-kai.

Frequency-magnitude distributions are generally expressed by the Gutenberg-Richter (G-R) law. However, frequency-magnitude distributions are sometimes a convex-upward curve rather than a straight line, departing from the G-R law. An η value originally introduced by Utsu (1978) is an indicator that represents the degree of deviation from the G-R law. We investigate η values before and after six M7-9 class mainshocks off the Pacific coast of eastern Japan. The η values tend to become small (i.e., the distribution deviates from the G-R law) before the mainshocks, and then increase (i.e., recovering to the G-R law). Taking this characteristic into account, we suggest a simple and challenging earthquake forecast model based on η values. Probability gain of the optimized forecast model by a retrospective test becomes 2.24-3.03, and the alarm rate and the truth rate become 100% and 0.14-0.47%, respectively. According to the result of the forecast model applied to the latest seismicity, we should pay attention to seismicity off the coast southeast of Kanto district.
