Properties of Rocks, Computational Maximum tsunami height along the Pacific coast of Japan. A total of nearly 30,000 buildings were damaged in the affected regions and about 30,000 people were killed. to fix the damage it cost over $25 million or more dollars, 59,000-77,000. houses were destroyed. [42] The results of tsunami inundation simulation indicate that tsunami‐related deposits observed in Ryujin Lake do not occur regularly during Nankai Trough earthquakes but occur during unusually large earthquakes when the fault rupture extends beyond westernmost Shikoku to Hyuga‐nada. [47] In the Hyuga‐nada region a relatively large (M6.5–7.5) interplate earthquakes have occurred frequently at interval approximately 20–30 years. Background. Learn more. A high‐density digital elevation map was constructed on a basis of recent geographical surveys conducted by the Yonouzu Promotion Office, Oita Prefecture. Researches on the tsunami deposits along the Nankai Trough:. The death toll associated with this event is uncertain, … Geophysics, Geomagnetism Two decades of spatiotemporal variations in subduction zone coupling offshore Japan. Structural control on the nucleation of megathrust earthquakes in the Nankai subduction zone. To open auxiliary materials in a browser, click on the label. Similar patterns of plate coupling properties are demonstrated in other studies. The modeled height is much larger than the maximum height of the tsunamis associated with the 1856 Ansei Nankai and 1946 Nankai earthquakes, which were less than 4 m at Yonouzu [Chida et al., 2003; Chida and Nakayama, 2006]. Snapshots of tsunami propagation from the Kii Peninsula to Kyushu derived from simulation at T = 0.2, 5.0, 15.0, and 30.0 min from the earthquake origin time.

International Symposium on Geodesy for Earthquake and Natural Hazards (GENAH). and you may need to create a new Wiley Online Library account. Real-Time Tsunami Prediction System Using DONET. Ise Bay, Japan The earthquake that caused the Ise Bay tsunami is best estimated as being of magnitude 8.2. Tokaido-Nankaido, Japan Estimated Number of Deaths: 30,000 Year: 1707. School San Diego Miramar College; Course Title GEOL 101; Type. The model of bathymetric and topography model just after the earthquake are modified using resultant vertical ground deformation pattern (Figure 2) due to the earthquake. Based on the latest death toll, the tsunamis generated by an earthquake Sunday off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia is the worst in history. Japan was hit by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake on March 11, 2011, that triggered a deadly 23-foot tsunami in the country's north. Also shown are the distributions of maximum tsunami inundation height derived from the simulation of the new Hoei earthquake source model (red lines) and the former Hoei earthquake model (black lines). On the other hand tsunami deposits from the other Nankai Trough earthquakes, which have occurred every 100 to 150 years, do not exist in Ryujin Lake. Existing seismic data would appear to be inadequate to confirm or deny this conjecture, but the possibility of different rupture characteristics on the different subfaults is intriguing. At least 1362 dead, 2600 injured and 100 missing. Le changement de pression causé par un très fort séisme peut être suffisant pour déclencher une éruption volcanique, du fait que le système magmatique impliqué est bloqué à un état critique[5]. Composition and Structure, Atmospheric However, further studies evaluating shaking intensity such as, e.g., based on the FDM simulation of ground motion is needed to completely understand earthquake‐related disasters associated with the Nankai Trough earthquakes. The tsunami inundation simulation was conducted using a fine nested mesh model that connects gradually different mesh resolution of 30 m, 10 m, and 3.3 m. [36] Results from a former large‐mesh tsunami simulation, in which height and flux of the tsunami in two horizontal directions at the coast near Ryujin Lake were calculated using the larger (30 m) mesh, were used as inputs in the present tsunami inundation simulation. The source rupture area of the new Hoei earthquake source model extends further, to the Hyuga‐nada, more than 70 km beyond the currently accepted location at the westernmost end of Shikoku. Dans chacun de ces cas, c'est le bloc nord-est qui a rompu avant le bloc sud-ouest[9]. Libson Portugal Tsumani With a magnitude of 9.0 20,000 people lives were taken from a monster tsunami. Comm. Apr 24, 1771. Animation S3. Ryujin Lake, however, recently observed by Okamura et al. The later snapshot (Figures 4d and 4e; T = 20 and 40 min) illustrate the arrival of the large tsunami along the Pacific coast from the westernmost end of Shikoku to Hyuga‐nada. of the Earthquake Invest. [30] In a later snapshot the larger tsunami is radiating into the Bungo Channel and propagating into the Inland Sea of Japan (Figure 8a; T = 30 min), which enhances the height of the tsunami in the Inland Sea. [29] Snapshots of tsunami propagation derived by the simulation for the new Hoei earthquake source model with subfault segments N1 to N5′ and the former Hoei earthquake model without segment N5′ are compared in Figure 8 and in Animation S2. Estimating a Tsunami Source by Sediment Transport Modeling: A Primary Attempt on a Historical/1867 Normal‐Faulting Tsunami in Northern Taiwan. Such deformations of the ground surface associated with large subduction zone earthquakes are known to produce marine terraces by upheaval and onshore lakes by subsidence. The Journal of the Geological Society of Japan. This implies that the large inflow flux of the tsunami through the channel can carry large masses of sea sand into the lake very effectively, but leaves most of the sand in the lake near the channel when the tsunami goes back to sea. Figure 9 shows the maximum simulated tsunami heights for the new model along the Pacific coast of Japan in Shikoku and Kyushu. Geological and historical evidence of irregular recurrent earthquakes in Japan. In Tosa, 11,170 houses were washed away, and 18,441 people drowned. The spread of the source area of the 1944 Tonankai earthquake was rather short and stopped before the Tokai earthquake fault segment. The Worst Tsunami in History! [2] Great interplate earthquakes have occurred at the Nankai Trough at a recurrence interval of approximately 100 to 150 years due to the subduction of the Philippine Sea plate beneath southwestern Japan. Subfault segments N1 to N4 of the source model of the Hoei earthquake are divided into small pieces 1 km by 1 km in size. Damage. Nankaido, Japan This earthquake had a magnitude of 8.4. Oceanography, Interplanetary Planets, Magnetospheric [6] The source model for the Hoei earthquake deduced by Ando [1975], Aida [1981], and An'naka et al. Figure 8a shows the pattern of ground deformation derived from the new Hoei earthquake source model with subfault segments N1 to N5, demonstrating the extension of the ground subsidence area to Kyushu with maximum ground subsidence of 2 m in a narrow belt from Shikoku to Hyuga‐nada. The earthquake occurrence pattern can be characterized by three fault segments: the Nankai, the Tonankai, and the Tokai, from west to east. Tsunamis therefore occur comparatively often in this country. Tsunamis from the 684 Tenmu, 1361 Shokei, and 1707 Hoei earthquakes deposited sand in Ryujin Lake and around the channel connecting it to the sea, but lesser tsunamis from other earthquakes were unable to reach Ryujin Lake. The MW 9.0 Tohoku Earthquake, Japan, March 11, 2011. The Nankai Trough earthquake tsunamis in Korea: numerical studies of the 1707 Hoei earthquake and physics-based scenarios. At this time, the flux of seawater is approximately 1 to 2 m/s at the entrance of the lake and as fast as 5 m/s at the center of the channel. Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research. Sloshing of a bubbly magma reservoir as a mechanism of triggered eruptions. Such earthquakes with very slow rupture speeds may not produce strong ground motions or large shaking intensity to feel peoples. Red and blue colors indicate uplift and subsidence of the sea surface, respectively. It was 300 years ago, but it was one of the tragedies caused by the tsunami in Japan. The area of the tsunami simulation is 540 km by 860 km, which covers the entire Pacific Coast from Honshu to Kyushu where the large tsunami hit during the Hoei earthquake. Oct 28, 1707. Following these new geological and geodetic findings, we revised the source model of the Hoei earthquake which had described by four subfault segments (N1 to N4) by introducing a new N5′ subfault segment on the western side of Nankai earthquake segment (N4). The contrast of larger tsunami relative to weaker ground shaking raises the potential for a significant tsunami disaster similar to that of the tsunami earthquakes [e.g., Kanamori, 1972; Satake and Tanioka, 1999]. The tsunami lasts for several tens of minutes after the earthquake. Ryujin Lake is one such onshore lake that has tsunami‐induced oceanic deposits (hereafter called tsunami lakes), located along the coast of the Hyuga‐nada in Kyushu. Mega-earthquakes rupture flat megathrusts. The tsunami runup into Ryujin Lake estimated by the tsunami inundation simulation using a high‐resolution bathymetry model demonstrates the process whereby a large flow of seawater with a large difference in inflow and outflow speeds can transport and deposit sea sand into the lake near the inflow channel very effectively. [43] Of the series of repeating megathrust earthquakes in the Nankai Trough that recur every 100 to 150 years, the Hoei earthquake is considered to be the most damaging, with its linkage of Tokai, Tonankai and the Nankai earthquakes, and fault ruptures extending from Suruga Bay to the westernmost end of Shikoku, about 600 km in length [An'naka et al., 2003]. The 1944 Tonankai earthquake also triggered a tsunami that affected the neighboring coasts. Auxiliary material files may require downloading to a local drive depending on platform, browser, configuration, and size. Earthquake and Tsunami Scenarios as Basic Information to Prepare Next Nankai Megathrust Earthquakes. We thank the Central Disaster Mitigation Council, Cabinet Office, government of Japan, and Yonouzu Promotion Office, Oita Prefecture, Japan, for providing bathymetry map data. The sea waves were as high as 25 m to hammer into the Pacific coasts of Kyushyu, Shikoku and Honshin. [48] The extension of the source rupture area from westernmost Shikoku to Hyuga‐nada would produce increased shaking in Kyushu. [13] Figure 2 illustrates the calculated vertical ground deformation due to fault rupture of the N1 through N4 fault segments for the Hoei earthquake, derived following Mansinha and Smylie [1971]. Tsunamis and submarine landslides in Suruga Bay, central Japan, caused by Nankai–Suruga Trough megathrust earthquakes during the last 5000 years. [26] We then modified the geometry of the N5 subfault segment and narrowed it in the direction perpendicular to the trench axis. [23] We also consulted recent studies on the spatial distribution of interplate coupling rates along the Nankai Trough [e.g., Hashimoto et al., 2009; Ichitani et al., 2010; Nishimura et al., 1999; T. Hashimoto, http://www.jamstec.go.jp/esc/projects/fy2009/12-hashi.html]. By continuing to browse this site, you agree to its use of cookies as described in our, Journal of Advances Moreover the simulated uplift of 100 cm at Cape Ashizuri is far larger than the uplift observed by Kawasumi [1950]. [2004]. The discovery of emerged boring bivalves at Cape Omaezaki, Shizuoka, Japan: Evidence for the 1361 CE Tokai earthquake along the Nankai Trough. A wide upheaval area extends on land from Enshu‐nada to Hyuga‐nada, roughly covering the area that suffered subsidence due to the Hoei earthquake (Figure 2). Slip parameters on major thrusts at a convergent plate boundary: regional heterogeneity of potential slip distance at the shallow portion of the subducting plate. Therefore, the large tsunami generated by the rupture of the N5′ subfault segment and the swift current it produces in the channel is the only agent that can explain the transport of sea sand into the lake. The earthquake caused more than 5,000 casualties, destroyed 29,000 houses, and triggered at least one major landslide, the Ohya slide in Shizuoka. 5 Tokaido-Nankaido Tsunami.

Nankaido, Japan A magnitude 8.4 earthquake caused sea waves as high as 25 m to go into the Pacific coasts of Kyushyu, Shikoku and Honshin. A possible explanation is that slow rupture over the N4 subfault segment generated large coseismic ground deformation and therefore a large tsunami, but did not produce strong ground motion. The pattern of earthquake ground deformation shows that the area of coseismic ground deformation terminates at the westernmost end of Shikoku, approximately 100 km farther east from Ryujin Lake (Figure 2). [50] Baba et al. Near-trench slip potential of megaquakes evaluated from fault properties and conditions. Such ground surface upheaval occurs mostly at sea but some can be found on land, including at Cape Muroto, Cape Shiono, and along the coast of Suruga Bay.

A Method to Determine the Level 1 and Level 2 Tsunami Inundation Areas for Reconstruction in Eastern Japan and Possible Application in Pre-disaster Areas. TSUNAMI SIMULATION CONSIDERING INTERRELATED EARTHQUAKES AND ITS REMAINING PROBLEM. Source rupture areas of recent three Nankai Trough earthquake cycles: (a) the 1944 Tonankai and 1946 Nankai earthquakes, (b) the 1854 Ansei Nankai and Tokai earthquakes, and (c) the 1707 Hoei earthquake. Processes in Geophysics, Atmospheric The maximum water depth of the lake is approximately 3 m in the center, and a narrow channel or waterway southwest of the lake connects it to the sea. [25] We first set a 70 km by 120 km subfault segment, N5, on the west of the N4 subfault segment and extended the source rupture area of the Hoei earthquake to Hyuga‐nada (Figure 7). [2004] at the Hyuga‐nada seashore in Kyushu, is not in a location typical of other tsunami lakes in Shikoku and Honshu where large ground subsidence is considered to have occurred during Nankai Trough earthquakes. [44] However, the recent discovery of the tsunami lakes in Kyushu (Ryujin Lake) with their thick cover of tsunami‐induced deposits caused by the Hoei earthquake has overturned our understanding. The Quaternary Research (Daiyonki-Kenkyu). In Figure 4a (T = 1 min) the development of tsunami above the Hoei earthquake source segment (N1–4) is very striking, with an uplift of the sea surface of approximately 3 m over the Nankai Trough. Note that the outflow tsunami current in the channel is very weak, less than 1/5 of the peak tsunami inflow speed (Figure 11e). We should be prepared for a diversity of rupture processes during future earthquakes along the Nankai Trough. The resultant large Shields number, (s > 11), associated with the tsunami's inflow 25 min from the start of the earthquake (Figure 11c), promises that tsunami could efficiently transport sea sand into the lake with very large Shields number of tsunami due to the rupture on the N5′ subfault [see, e.g., Takahashi et al., 1993]. [2003]. 1707 Hōei Nankai Trough tsunami in the Bungo Channel, southwestern Japan. Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth. Image Credit: pinimg Also known as the Good Friday earthquake, this Tsunami lasted for 4.38 minutes and measured a magnitude of 9.2 on the Richter Scale. Such larger events do not occur during the regular Nankai Trough earthquake cycle of 100–150 years, but may occur in a hyperearthquake cycle of 300 to 500 years. Vertical ground surface deformation derived by the revised 1707 Hoei earthquake source model: (a) an extended source model produced by adding a new N5 subfault segment at the Hyuga‐nada and (b) a subfault model with segment N5′ shortened in the direction perpendicular to the trench. [20] We therefore examined other findings supporting our hypothesis of an extended source of the Hoei earthquake. and Chemical Oceanography, Physical Also we slightly modified the length of the N4 subfault segment in the direction parallel to the trench axis in order to improve the fitness between synthesized and observed ground deformation pattern reported by Kawasumi [1950]. It had a magnitude estimated at 8.6 Ms and triggered a large tsunami. A long source area of the 1906 Colombia–Ecuador earthquake estimated from observed tsunami waveforms. [5] The source rupture histories of the recent 1944 Tonankai and 1946 Nankai earthquakes were examined extensively based on the analysis of modern instrumental data, such as tide gauge records of tsunami waveforms [Aida, 1981; Tanioka, 2001; Tanioka and Satake, 2001; Baba et al., 2002, 2006], seismograms of regional strong ground motions and teleseismic waveforms [Ichinose et al., 2003; Murotani, 2007; Yamanaka, 2004], geodetic data derived from leveling surveys [Fitch and Scholz, 1971; Kanamori, 1972; Ando, 1975; Ishibashi, 1981; Sagiya and Thatcher, 1999], and combinations of these data [Satake, 1993]. It had an estimated magnitude of 7.9 on the surface wave magnitude scale and triggered a devastating tsunami that resulted in thousands of deaths in the Nankai and Tōkai regions of Japan.It is uncertain whether there were two separate earthquakes separated by a short time interval or a single event. Imaging of the subducted Kyushu-Palau Ridge in the Hyuga-nada region, western Nankai Trough subduction zone. Working off-campus? The tsunami lakes distributed along the Nankai Trough shoreline lie along a larger zone that subsides during the Nankai Trough earthquakes have developed and preserved in such way. It is difficult to say if the 1771 tsunami which struck the tropical southern islands of Japan was worse than the 1707 Hōei tsunami or 1792 Unzen tsunami. Japan has had two earthquakes with staggering death tolls of more than 100,000 people. 7. It is one of the biggest tsunamis in the worldto be recorded in history. It agrees well with our expectation of gentle (40 cm) ground subsidence in the area around Ryujin Lake and some subsidence of the ground surface at Cape Ashizuri as noted by Kawasumi [1950]. Further effort is needed to establish the shaking intensity in Kyushu in 1707.In the present paper, we have focused mainly on the significance of the elongation of the Hoei earthquake source rupture to Hyuga‐nada in terms of the strengthening of tsunami height and onshore tsunami runup. Snapshots of the tsunami associated with the 1707 Hoei earthquake at (a) T = 1.0 min, (b) T = 5.0 min, (c) T = 10.0 min, (d) T = 20.0 min, (e) T = 40.0 min, and (f) T = 80.0 min after the earthquake origin time. The Nankai Trough extends from Suruga Bay to the Hyuga‐nada. The 1707 Mw8.7 Hoei earthquake triggered the largest historical eruption of Mt. Contribution of Slow Earthquake Study for Assessing the Occurrence Potential of Megathrust Earthquakes. Les mouvements tectoniques dans cette zone de convergence lithosphérique sont à l'origine de nombreux séismes, dont certains rentrent dans la catégorie des mégaséismes. Propagation of tsunami associated with the 1707 Hoei earthquake derived by tsunami simulation using the source model of. It caused a consequent tsunami that led to the sea waves as high as 25 m to hammer into the Pacific coasts of Kyushu, Shikoku, and Honshin. Animation S2a. Processes, Information At this Tsunami on 08/29/1741 a total of 1,607 people have been killed. The hight of this tsunami was around 6 meters. Therefore, the Hoei earthquake is often referred as a worst case scenario for earthquakes occurring in the Nankai Trough. An Account of the Destructive Earthquakes in Japan, Publ. The map on the top shows the Pacific coastline from Hyuga‐nada to Suruga Bay with representative locations. This implies that the source rupture area of the Nankai subfault segments might not stop at the westernmost end of Shikoku as most source models assume [Ando, 1975; Aida, 1981; An'naka et al., 2003], but may extend further, to Hyuga‐nada. R4 indicates the area of tsunami inundation simulation in the area surrounding Ryujin Lake (. Physics, Comets and It had a magnitude estimated at 8.6 Ms and triggered a large tsunami. Based on recent findings of geodetic and geological investigations, we present a revised source-rupture model for the great 1707 Hoei earthquake that occurred in the Nankai Trough off southwestern Japan. On the other hand, the radiation of the tsunami from the N5′ subfault is very weak in the direction parallel to the trench axis (i.e., southwest to northeast). image: Pinterest. Auxiliary material for this article contains three animations demonstrating tsunami generation and propagation. YouTube, n.d. De plus, le séisme a engendré un important glissement de terrain, dans la préfecture de Shizuoka, connu sous le nom de glissement d'Ohya[10]. A systematic review of geological evidence for Holocene earthquakes and tsunamis along the Nankai-Suruga Trough, Japan. [2006] revealed from tsunami data that the area of large tsunami generation on the fault plane extended along the entire source rupture area in of the 1946 Nankai earthquake. Great Earthquakes along the Nankai Trough-A New Idea for Their Rupture Mode and Time Series-. Natural hazard information and migration across cities: evidence from the anticipated Nankai Trough earthquake. Il a été le plus important séisme de l'histoire du pays[1] jusqu'en 2011 où il a été supplanté par le séisme du Tōhoku[2]. Dans le cas du séisme de 1707, les séismes semblent s'être produits de manière simultanée, ou du-moins dans une durée de temps trop courte pour pouvoir être distingués par les sources historiques, Annal of Disas.Prev.Res.Inst., Kyoto Univ. [10] In section 2, we first simulate the tsunami and ground deformation patterns from the Hoei earthquakes to show the applicability and limitations of the current source model of, e.g., An'naka et al. EFFECT OF TSUNAMI-INDUCED SEDIMENT TRANSPORT AND OFFSHORE TSUNAMI WAVEFORM ON ENLARGEMENT OF RETURN FLOW. Inundation of tsunami into the Ryujin Lake derived by tsunami runup simulation. Ryujin Lake is surrounded by hills 50 m to 100 m high on the east and south and there is a short beach hill of approximately 10 m on the southwest. Sanriku, Japan - 15 June 1896. We designated these segments as N4′ and N5′ (Table 2 and Figure 7b). [2004] that tsunami inundation carrying sea deposits occurs via a narrow channel connecting the sea and lake rather than by overtopping of beach hills that are 10 m high. [22] If we assume that gentle ground upheaval has continued in the area around Ryujin Lake at a rate of roughly 2 mm/yr until now, the change in ground elevation is estimated to be 60 cm in the past 300 years since the Hoei earthquake in 1707. Now at Tsunami Engineering Laboratory, Disaster Control Research Center, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan. Nankaido, Japan (28 October 1707) A magnitude 8.4 earthquake caused seawaves as high as 25 m to hammer into the Pacific coasts of Kyushyu, Shikoku and Honshin. [2003] determined that the source rupture area of this event extends from Suruga Bay to the westernmost end of Shikoku, i.e., the whole extent of the source area of the 1856 Ansei Tokai and the Ansei Nankai earthquakes. The Hoei earthquake in 1707 was one such unusually large event, as were the 1361 Shohei and 684 Tenmu earthquakes, evidenced by their ability to deposit tsunami‐borne sand in Ryujin Lake [Matsuoka and Okamura, 2009; Okamura et al., 2004]. [11] We first conducted tsunami simulation for the Hoei earthquake using a source model of An'naka et al. Distribution of tsunami lakes such as Hamana Lake at Enshu‐nada [e.g., Okamura et al., 2000], Suwa Lake on the Kii Peninsula [e.g., Tsuji et al., 2002], and Tadasuga Lake in Shikoku [e.g., Okamura et al., 2003] are marked by triangles in Figure 2. Nankaido, Japan - 28 October 1707. The history of Nankai Trough earthquake occurrences can be traced through 11 events, beginning with the Hakuho Nankai earthquake in AD 684 [e.g., Ishibashi, 2004; Ando, 1975]. The bottom four plots show the distribution of maximum tsunami height calculated using the simulation of the Hoei earthquake by, Pattern of average vertical movements of uplift (red) and subsidence (blue) derived using the GEONET GPS data from August 1999 to August 2009 are illustrated by blue‐red color scale. The tsunami deposits at Ryujin Lake in Kyushu left by large tsunamis from the 684 Tenmu, 1361 Shohei, and 1707 Hoei earthquakes, attest to such a hyperearthquake cycle. Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. The waves of the tsunami extended several kilometers inland and as many as a dozen occurred over a one hour period. Osaka was also damaged. A magnitude 8.4 earthquake caused sea waves as high as 25 m to hammer into the Pacific coasts of Kyushyu, Shikoku and Honshin. Most of these monuments were built just after the earthquakes to pray for the repose of the tsunami victims or to sound a warning to inhabitants. The existence of the tsunami lakes in Kyushu was not well explained by the expected ground deformation pattern produced by the former Hoei earthquake source model where the fault rupture stopped at the westernmost end of Shikoku, not extending to Hyuga‐nada. In Figure 11b (T = 19 min), the height of the sea surface began to falls as the tsunami wavefront approached. Nov 1, 1755. Ryujin Lake has a thick cover of marine deposits, including coarse‐grained sea sands and marine sediments containing oceanic plankton carried by Nankai Trough earthquake. [12] The source model of the Hoei earthquake deduced by An'naka et al. Les segments se sont rompus soit séparément ou ensemble à plusieurs reprises au cours des 1 300 dernières années[8]. D'une magnitude estimé à 8,6 sur l'échelle ouverte de Richter, le séisme a généré un déplacement généralisé de tous les blocs du chevauchement de Nankai et est le seul événement connu à avoir produit une mécanique d'une telle ampleur.
