Realtime Tsunami Prediction System Using Ocean Floor Network for Local Regions
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
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 ...

Laboratory friction measurements of Nankai Trough basalts
We obtained altered basaltic upper basement from the modern Nankai Trough seaward of the trench, recovered by drilling on IODP Expedition 333. We performed laboratory friction experiments on bare surfaces and gouge powders of this material, in addition ...

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 ...

Geological record of prehistoric tsunamis in Mugi town, facing the Nankai Trough, western Japan
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.
