We have used these facts to analyze the 2010 Maule (Chile) M= 8.8 and 2011 Tohoku (Japan) M= 9.1 earthquakes using PREM. Superconducting gravimeter data available within the framework of the Global Geodynamic Project reveal that the Mcomponents of these earthquakes should be in the interval ...
Quick Facts Also called: Great Sendai Earthquake or Great Tōhoku Earthquake Date: March 11, 2011 Location: Honshu Japan Sendai Tōhoku Context: earthquake tsunami Fukushima accident See all related content Top Questions What was the magnitude of the earthquake that caused the tsunami that dev...
[17] The observational facts given in the preceding section show that the magnetic disturbances are found both near and far from the epicenter. However, near the focal area of earthquake and tsunami, there are several possible sources and mechanisms responsible for magnetic anomalies. The seismo-io...
2013). This short-term preceding slow-slip broke the strongly coupled plate interface of Block C and propagated southwestward toward the hypocenter of the mainshock of the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake, and finally led to the M9.0 main rupture (see Fig. 6). These facts imply that the ...
The Great Eastern Japan Earthquake and Tsunami: Facts and implications for flood risk management The Great Eastern Japan Earthquake and Tsunami of March 11, 2011 can be characterized as a catastrophe. It inundated over 560 km2 of land, devastating a la... V Tsimopoulou - 《Civil Engineering ...
The performance of landslide during strong motion has not been discussed based on observed facts. Precise field observation on landslide movement during earthquake should be significant to mitigate the landslide risk in urban region.doi:10.1007/978-3-319-09048-1_156Toshitaka Kamai...
These facts indicate that the obtained local deformations must be actual deformations, rather than noise. Our hypothesis is that coseismic extensional deformation concentrates in the soft medium under a volcano (e.g., magma and its surrounding rock) and that this deformation has caused local ...
Several observational facts which are favor to the generation of IGW are described. Finally, we stress the need of satellite constellation in order to obtain the global morphology of ionosphere disturbance and to identify the mechanism, which at least provides us the material to judge applicability ...
Although those facts do not establish a correlation, fluctuations of the lake level should not be precluded as a possibility in explaining the swarm. The increase of seismic activity after the Tohoku earthquake can be explained as follows. Before the earthquake, strain energy was accumulating in ...
