AIST:AFERC - Research in Fiscal Year 2002

Annual Report on Active Fault and Paleoearthquake Researches No. 3 (2003)

Cover figure

Distribution of tsunami deposits, actual tsunami inundation area from the 1952 Tokachi-oki earthquake and simulated inundation regions from three models (Armageddon, Interplate and Tsunami earthquakes). Distribution of deposits from the unusual tsunami in the 17th century (Ts3) is bet reproduced by the multi-segment rupture of an interplate earthquake (Satake et al., pages 315 - 362).

Back cover

Geologic structure of the Uemachi and Ikoma fault zones based on geologic mapping, boreholes and seismic profiles (Ishiyama, pages 145 - 155). Top: Schematic geologic cross section of the northern Uemachi and Ikoma fault zones. Bottom: Geologic map of the northern Osaka plain based on Miyachi et al. (1998, 2001), Nishioka et al. (2001) and Ozaki et al. (2000). Locations of active faults are based on Ikeda et al. (2002).
