Evaluating the effects of climate change on different stages of weathering in some granitic and granodioritic landslide prone areas of Japan
Landslides in different areas of Japan are strongly affected by various roles of weathering under different climatic contexts. In this study,...

Monitored transition from sagging to sliding during deep-seated gravitational slope deformation, Akatani-nishi, Japan
To clarify the mechanism of deep-seated gravitational slope deformation (DSGSD), we investigated crushed rocks and subsurface deformation in a slope...

Role of Japan Sea Throughflow in the spatial variability of the long-term sea surface temperature trend
The Japan Sea shows a much stronger warming of long-term sea surface temperature (SST) than surrounding oceans. The warming trend possesses a...

A review on slow earthquakes in the Japan Trench
Slow earthquakes are episodic slow fault slips. They form a fundamental component of interplate deformation processes, along with fast, regular...
