Relationship between strain accumulation and release associated with recent slow slip events on the Japanese Islands
In this study, we investigated the relationship between the strain accumulation before a slow slip event (SSE) and the strain release during the SSE...

Recent progress in research on source processes of great earthquakes using tsunami data
This paper provides an overview of inverse studies that estimate earthquake source processes using tsunami-related data. Methods and techniques...

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...

Can the regional 3D stress field according to the Wallace–Bott hypothesis predict fault slip directions of future large earthquakes?
When evaluating strong ground motions and tsunamis from specified source faults, it is required that the input parameters, such as fault geometry,...

Spatiotemporal functional modeling of postseismic deformations after the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake
Postseismic deformations continue to occur for a long period after major earthquakes. Temporal changes in postseismic deformations can be...

Three thousand year paleo-tsunami history of the southern part of the Japan Trench
This study conducted a field survey and multiproxy analyses on sediment cores retrieved from the Kobatake-ike pond in Choshi City, Chiba Prefecture,...

Statistical study on the regional characteristics of seismic activity in and around Japan: frequency-magnitude distribution and tidal correlation
We propose a statistical analysis method to identify common features of seismic activity that are indistinguishable from most other seismicity, and...

Progress and application of the synthesis of trans-oceanic tsunamis
Abundant high-quality distant tsunami records from the 2010 Maule (Chile) and 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquakes have revealed two distinctive features...

The generation of large earthquakes
Despite decades of observational, laboratory and theoretical studies, the processes leading to large earthquake generation remain enigmatic. However,...

Post-earthquake fire risk and loss assessment in urban areas
Post-earthquake fire (PEF) poses a significant threat to urban structures and may contribute to the collapse of seismically damaged buildings as well...

Seismic velocity structure along the Sea of Japan with large events derived from seismic tomography for whole Japanese Islands including reflection survey data and NIED MOWLAS Hi-net and S-net data
We conducted seismic tomography for entire Japanese Islands including the Sea of Japan and the Pacific Ocean using arrival times from reflection...

High-resolution 3D earthquake forecasting beneath the greater Tokyo area
We propose an extended 3D space (longitude, latitude, and depth) epidemic-type aftershock sequence (ETAS) model for seismicity forecasts beneath the...

Configuration and structure of the Philippine Sea Plate off Boso, Japan: constraints on the shallow subduction kinematics, seismicity, and slow slip events
We applied tomographic inversion and receiver function analysis to seismic data from ocean-bottom seismometers and land-based stations to understand...

Liquefaction fragility of sewer pipes derived from the case study of Urayasu (Japan)
The damage on supply and drainage water networks is a serious cause of economic disruption for urban systems affected by earthquakes. Among various...

High-fidelity elastic Green’s functions for subduction zone models consistent with the global standard geodetic reference system
Green’s functions (GFs) for elastic deformation due to unit slip on the fault plane comprise an essential tool for estimating earthquake rupture and...
