DONET: A Real-Time Monitoring System for Megathrust Earthquakes and Tsunamis Around Southwestern Japan [PDF]
Oceanography, 2014 DONET (Dense Ocean floor Network for Earthquakes and Tsunamis; https://www.jamstec.go.jp/donet/e/index.html) is a cabled seafloor observatory that monitors the Nankai and Tōnankai seismogenic zones, offshore southwestern Japan, in real time. In 1944, two

Realtime Tsunami Prediction System Using Ocean Floor Network for Local Regions
Applied Sciences, 2022 The ocean floor network system for earthquakes and tsunamis is one of the effective tools for the early detection of large earthquakes on plate boundaries and the tsunamis they generate.

Long-term slow slip event detected beneath the Shima Peninsula, central Japan, from GNSS data
Earth, Planets and Space, 2019 Long-term slow slip events (SSEs), the largest events among slow earthquakes, occur repeatedly along the Nankai Trough, southwest Japan. Their locations, near the locked zones of the plate interface responsible for great megathrust earthquakes in the ...

The First D/V Chikyu IODP Operations: Successful Logging and Coring During NanTroSEIZE Stage 1 Expeditions [PDF]
Scientific Drilling, 2008 The Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment (NanTroSEIZE) is a multi-expedition IODP drilling project aimed at drilling, coring, logging, and instrumenting the seismogenic zone of an active subduction margin , in a region thought to generate megathrust

Characteristics of a tsunamigenic megasplay fault in the Nankai Trough [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2013 Slip on the shallow part of a megasplay fault that is an out‐of‐sequence thrust and branch of the main subduction plate boundary can cause devastating tsunamis after earthquakes. We analyzed the three‐dimensional geometry, including dip amount and azimuths, roughness distributions, and thickness variations, of the shallow part of a megasplay fault in ...
