[4] The focal mechanism of this earthquake showed that it was a normal faulting earthquake. High frequency waveforms characterize earthquakes east of the Japan Trench and low-frequency waveforms characterize those earthquakes that locate west of the trench. 7(d). et al. The ∼trench-parallel horst and graben structure in this Sector 3 indicates that both ocean-ward and trench-ward dipping faulting occur in this sector and that maximum fault throws approach 500 m near the Japan Trench. The 1933 Sanriku earthquake (昭和三陸地震, Shōwa Sanriku Jishin) occurred on the Sanriku coast of the Tōhoku region of Honshū, Japan on March 2. 3c). Okada Low-angle normal fault plane (30° dip) that was suggested by Abe (1978) is mechanically very unfavourable and inconsistent with P-wave first motions for the 1933 earthquake.

The tsunami brought forth from the 1933 Sanriku earthquake (M., 8.4, KANAMORI, 1971; see Fig. Come Show Us Your Junk!!! M. Holden D.G. P. The JMA catalogue shows an earthquake distribution both to the east and west of the Japan trench and the main-shock hypocentre is located slightly east of the off-trench aftershock distribution (Fig. Therefore, we consider velocity heterogeneity in the offshore region is causing systematic shifts of the earthquake hypocentres determined by the land network using a commonly adopted 1-D velocity structure. 3a). Although the earthquake alignment in the cross-section is ambiguous due to small number of earthquakes and their scatter nearest the Japan trench, we take high angle (60° dip) rupture planes as working hypotheses. The black square shows the location of the seismic station (Mizusawa) where the dominant frequency was estimated from the waveforms recorded there. D.W. Fujii K. Kanamori The 1933 Sanriku earthquake (昭和三陸地震, Shōwa Sanriku Jishin) occurred on the Sanriku coast of the Tōhoku region of Honshū, Japan on March 2 with a moment magnitude of 8.4.

Small crosses show grid points. Note the sharp boundaries between Group 3 and Groups 2 and 4. R.S. Y. 9d). R. The observed tsunami waveform show small but clear upward first motions for HCH and KSN, located to the west of the source faults (Figs 12b and c). We determined the dominant frequency from the smoked-paper records by counting the number of peaks in the event time window. The period is from the Mizusawa catalogue and the damping constant is from visual inspection of waveforms because this constant was not documented. The contour interval is 0.01 MPa; contours larger than 0.1 MPa are not drawn. 13b) are mainly distributed in Group 3 where the recent earthquakes are relatively concentrated near the trench (Fig. This wide width cannot be explained from a single high-angle fault confined at a shallow depth (depth ≦50 km). Lay These earthquakes appear to be separated from the earthquakes in the offshore forearc region (black) by a relatively sparse seismicity region (Fig. Gonzalez (e) Relocation P-wave phase data from global stations (Okal et al.2016). The tsunami was also recorded in Hawaii with a height of 9.5 feet (2.9 m), and which also resulted in slight damage.

In this structure, we used the 3-D depth of the plate boundary (Nakajima & Hasegawa 2006; Kita et al.2010) as a reference. Note that for the velocity within the subducting plate the distance from the subducting plate surface is used instead of the depth. Found inside – Page 29Since the 1933 Sanriku earthquake, powerful earthquakes have struck frequently at relatively short intervals such as approx. On the basis of the P times obtained at more than 200 stations, it is confirmed that the hypocenter of this earthquake is within the lithosphere beneath the Japan trench. We subdivided and classified the off-trench region of the Japan Trench into numbered Group Sectors based on the morphologies and distributions of fault scarps in relation to the local orientation of the Japan Trench and orientations of magnetic anomalies that indicate the seafloor spreading fabric. Kaneda Y. We recognize multiple fault-like alignments evident in both the epicentres of off-trench earthquakes in trench parallel bands (Fig. Structure constraints from refraction and reflection experiments suggest a relatively shallow Moho and a faster mantle for the offshore forearc region (Ito et al.2004; Ito et al.2005).

Relocated earthquake locations for recent earthquakes from October 2001 to 2011 March 10. by . Found insideThis book evaluates the actions taken during and after the earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear accident, for which the Japanese government and people were not prepared. Contours in panel (a) represent seafloor depths in 1000 m intervals. Any queries (other than missing material) should be directed to the corresponding author for the paper. Although the phase data for our relocations has an approximate 5 s standard error, the estimation of hypocentre uncertainty from a bootstrap method suggests that this shallow earthquake distribution is robust (Fig. On June 15, 1896, an earthquake of magnitude 8.5 struck the Sanriku coast on the northeast of Honshu, Japan, in the Iwate Prefecture. T. Hypocentre distribution of the 1933 main shock and its aftershocks. (a) JMA catalogue. T. Nakajima Nakajima (1982). Fujie K. T. Kawakatsu A great earthquake occurred on March 2, 1933 (UTC DATE) in the Sanriku region of Japan and generated a destructive tsunami that caused extensive damage along the Sanriku coast of the Tohoku region of the island of Honshu. The associated tsunami caused widespread damage.. Earthquake. Hutko Some of the figures were drawn using Generic Mapping Tools software (Wessel & Smith 1995).

S.H. </p> <p>The harbors were delimited by the populated places. L.J. The results show that the main-shock hypocentres shifted slightly south and toward the trench. Right bottom inset is the same for the large figure but for the aftershocks of the 2005 Mw 7.0 outer-trench-slope earthquake (2007 May 5–31, Hino et al.2009) recorded at several land stations. The initial shock occurred on at 0230 AM on March 2, 1933. Thus, it is important to investigate whether these inner-trench-slope aftershocks are due to location errors of their hypocentres or if these events represent seismicity in the megathrust zone that was activated following the 1933 outer-trench-slope normal-faulting earthquake. H. Shiobara Obana et al. Ogawa (a) Comparisons of the hypocentres from the JMA catalogue (black circles) and OBS relocations for the aftershocks of the 1992 M6.9 earthquake (Hino et al.1996; pink), the 1994 M7.6 Sanriku-oki earthquake (Hino et al.2000; green), the 2005 M7.0 earthquake (Hino et al.2009; red) and the off-trench aftershocks of the 2011 M9.0 Tohoku earthquake and M7.6 outer-trench-slope earthquake (Obana et al.2012). The upward motion of the 1933 tsunami waveform records observed at Sanriku coast also cannot be explained from a single high-angle west-dipping normal fault. Kanamori Phipps Morgan The distribution shows that high-frequency events are mostly located east of the trench and low frequency events tend to be located west of the trench region. The 1933 M 8.4 Sanriku-Oki earthquake and the 1994 M 8.3 Shikotan earthquake are examples of intraplate seismicity, caused by deformation within the lithosphere of the subducting Pacific plate (Sanriku-Oki) and of the overriding North America plate (Shikotan), respectively.

The faulting mechanism of the 1933 event is relevant to the rheological properties of the incoming Pacific plate and the stress state near the plate boundary. To do this, we relied upon the paper by Masao Nakanishi (2011) who mapped the off-trench normal fault scarps seaward of the Japan and Kuril Trenches, their spacings, the directions that these scarps dip, and their fault throws along selected profiles. A. Nakajima Prasetya Takei The earthquake had an estimated magnitude of 8.6 on the surface wave . Wessel W.H.F. The activity of earthquakes show that the earthquakes to the west of the trench started to occur within 2 hours after the main shock (Figs 9a and b), suggesting the triggered seismicity started very early stage of the aftershock activities. Ruff Koper Shimamura The earthquake had a moment magnitude of 8.4 and the associated tsunami caused widespread damage.. Earthquake. A.

Black curved line indicates the slab top surface. The strong power of the earthquake caused a tsunami with almost 30 m height. We show the high-frequency and low-frequency earthquake examples for recent earthquakes in the supporting materials (Supporting Information Figs S1 and S2). Earthquakes c–e occurred in the outer trench area and earthquakes f–h in the inner trench area. Comparison of the 1933 rupture dimensions based on our aftershock relocations with the morphologies of fault scarps in the outer trench slope suggest that the rupture was limited to the region where fault scarps are largely trench parallel and cross cut the seafloor spreading fabric. Found insideThis work discusses literary depictions of mass transit in 20th century Tokyo in the decades preceding WWII. The Great Nobi Earthquake of 1891, which killed only a fraction of the number who died in Sanriku, yet occurred on a fertile plain in the heart of Japan, produced by comparison a huge flow of . There was little awareness of the earthquake because of its distance from shore and because of its character, but the tsunami that ensued was massive and did overwhelming damage on shore and killed 26,000 people.

Berhorst The OBS locations tend to be west (landward) of apparent JMA's locations for events to the west of the trench (inner-trench-slope region) and tend to be east (seaward) of apparent JMA's locations for the events to the east of the trench (outer trench region). Kanamori, H. (1971). The possibilities for the causing this discrepancy includes an assumption of too much slip (moment) for the earthquake, limitations of the frequency-responses of the tide gauges for short wavelength waves, or inadequate modelling of local bathymetry. 1a; Tanioka & Satake 1996). Although the aftershock depth distribution is not closely constrained, the shallow aftershock distribution suggests a shallow rupture depth range and possibly a compound rupture for the 1933 main shock. Ammon 5 - Sanriku earthquake, 1933. 4) is the largest earthquake that has recogniz ed to date in the outer-rise/outer-trench- slope regions of the Earth.

H. (c) Relocation using a grid search of S–P times. Then the tidal components are estimated by a moving window analysis and the components are removed from the tide gauge record to compare with the Tsunami modelling results. The phase data are from JMA for all test relocations other than global ones that used those from the International Seismological Summary (ISS; Fig. Found insideThese are the lessons to be learned from Japan's own megadisaster: the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011, the fi rst disaster ever recorded that included an earthquake, a tsunami, a nuclear power plant accident, a power supply failure, ... 12a). 10a). Figure 15. The associated tsunami caused widespread damage. Watada There are large areas with Coulomb stress greater than the ∼0.01 MPa, values which is the band of stress change that promotes seismicity in other tectonic settings (Stein et al.1992; Harris et al.1995; Toda et al.1998). Hasegawa 4(c) shows time residuals for each P phase at land stations by assuming the OBS hypocentre and origin time are correct (see the figure caption for the detail). T. Gamage et al. Miller Dilek [3], This earthquake was an intraplate earthquake in the Pacific Plate. He and his colleagues interpreted these fault-like alignments, as we do, are possibly continuing aftershocks of the great 1933 Sanriku-oki earthquake more than 80 years after the earthquake and disastrous tsunami (Obana et al.2016). Coseismic slip distribution of the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake (M 9.0) estimated based on GPS data—Was the asperity in Miyagi-oki ruptured? Kirby These suggest bending and along-strike structural segmentation largely controls the horizontal and vertical extent of the fault. N. Kodaira The relationship applies very clearly to the dominant frequency of the 1933 aftershock and suggests that our locations relative to the trench position are accurate. Il est à noter également qu'il est difficile de réaliser des bilans car certaines catastrophes peuvent en engendrer d'autres. R.A.
