Marine Geophysical Researches, 1984 Heat flow estimated from the gas hydrate layers on the landward slope of the Nankai Trough reveals that heat flow increases downslope toward the trench floor. This data plus six new heat flow values obtained by a conventional probe and two values available from DSDP drill holes give a fairly detailed heat flow distribution in the Nankai Trough area ...

Numerical Study of Effects of Tsunami Wave Generated on Nankai Trough [PDF]
, 2008 Numerical techniques to simulate tsunami waves are described, and numerical results are introduced. A finite difference method is applied to shallow water equations to analize the propagation of tsunami wave.

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 ...

Tsunami simulations of mega-thrust earthquakes in the Nankai–Tonankai Trough (Japan) based on stochastic rupture scenarios [PDF]
, 2017 In this study, earthquake rupture models for future mega-thrust earthquakes in the Nankai-Tonankai subduction zone are developed by incorporating the main characteristics of inverted source models of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake.

Seismological Aspects of the December 2004 Great Sumatra-Andaman Earthquake [PDF]
, 2006 The 2004 Great Sumatra-Andaman earthquake had an average source duration of about 500 sec. and a rupture length of 1,200–1,300 km. The seismic moment, M0, determined with a finite source model, was 6.5×1022 N-m, which corresponds to Mw=9.18.

Geological record of prehistoric tsunamis in Mugi town, facing the Nankai Trough, western Japan
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2019 Stratigraphic and paleontological investigations in Mugi Town, on the Pacific coast of Shikoku Island, revealed evidence of as many as five tsunami inundations from events along the Nankai Trough between 5581 and 3640 cal yr BP.

Long-term slow slip events along the Nankai trough delayed by the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake, Japan
Earth, Planets and Space, 2020 The Global Navigation Satellite System network in Japan detected transient crustal deformation along the Nankai trough, Japan, from June 2018. Time-dependent inversion analysis shows that a long-term slow slip event in northern Hyuga-nada Sea along the ...
