Offshore extension of the Kakuda-Yahiko fault and its fault-propagating fold are investigated based on combination of high-resolution seismic surveys and sedimentary analysis to evaluate their Holocene activity. High-resolution multi-channel seismic surveys with the boomer sonar (13 lines) and high-frequency seismic survey with the chirp sonar (3 lines) ran across the fault line and its extension, and provided us sharp imageries of stratigraphic succession formed after the last lowstand. We can clearly recognize progressive deformation at the eastern-wing of the fault-propagating fold in the observed succession. To determine actual ages of the seismic strata, we measured radiocarbon dates from sedimentary cores obtained by 2 offshore borings and 2 vibro-coring surveys.

利用高分辨率地震测量和沉积分析相结合的方法,研究了Kakuda-Yahiko断裂带的海上伸展及其断层传播褶皱,以评价其全新世活动性。高分辨率多道地震测量用boomer声纳(13线)和高频地震测量用chirp声纳(3线)穿越断裂带及其延伸,为我们提供了末次低潮后形成的地层序列的清晰图像。在观察到的序列中,我们可以清楚地识别出断层扩展褶皱东翼的渐进变形。为了确定地震地层的实际年龄,我们测量了2个海上钻孔和2个振动取心测量获得的沉积岩心的放射性碳年代。基于10.8 ka ~ 4.7 ka之间地层变形,平均DOI: 10.4294/zisin.2017-9

A source process inversion for an M j 6.6 earthquake which occurred on October 21, 2016 in central Tottori Prefecture, was performed using near-field strong motion waveforms. The results showed that a left-lateral strike-slip component was dominant on the fault plane, the strike of which was in a NNW-SSE direction and the dip almost vertical. The moment magnitude was estimated as 6.2. A large slip area (asperity) was determined around the hypocenter, including its northern shallow part, in which the maximum slip was nearly 1.2 m. Another small asperity was estimated also near the northern edge of the fault plane. These two asperities corresponded to the two distinct wave packets observed at the stations near the source region. Furthermore, the results suggested that a discrepancy in frequency characteristics between these asperities existed, by comparing them with waveforms obtained just above the source region. We also estimated the stress drop on the fault plane by the final slip distribution, and the maximum value was about 16MPa. This result meant that the strong ground motion excitation of this earthquake was of an average level compared to past crustal earthquakes in Japan.

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 sixM7-9 class mainshocks off the Pacific coast of eastern Japan. The η values tend to become small (i.e., the distribution deviates from the GR 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.

We investigated the triggering process for the Mj6.4 Eastern Shizuoka earthquake of 15 March 2011, which occurred 4 days after the 2011 Mw9.0 Tohoku-Oki earthquake and about 4 minutes after the Mj6.2 Fukushima-Oki earthquake. The static Coulomb failure stress change on the fault of the Eastern Shizuoka earthquake from the Tohoku-Oki earthquake, was about 20kPa, and the largest dynamic stress change by the passing surface waves was about 200kPa. The largest dynamic stress change from the Fukushima-Oki earthquake and the largest tidal stress change after the Tohoku-Oki and before the Eastern Shizuoka earthquake were about 0.3kPa and 1.4kPa, respectively, while those at the onset of the Eastern Shizuoka earthquake were at most 0.01kPa and − 0.5kPa, respectively. We also analyzed seismicity by detecting earthquakes immediately preceding the Eastern Shizuoka earthquake, which is done using a matched filter technique. A single M1.0 event that occurred about 17 hours before the Eastern Shizuoka earthquake and located about 3km NNE from the hypocenter was found, however, this event may not be classified as a foreshock if we consider the background seismicity in this region before 2011. We propose that the seismic cycle was possibly advanced by about 10 1 to 10 2 years and delayed triggering might have occurred for the Eastern Shizuoka earthquake. The eventual earthquake was ready to occur to some extent, when the Tohoku-Oki earthquake occurred. The fault strength had significantly decreased due to imposed large dynamic and static stress changes from the Tohoku-Oki earthquake and probably its large aftershocks, in terms of a rate and state dependent friction law.
