Estimating Tsunami Economic Losses of Okinawa Island with Multi-Regional-Input-Output Modeling

Geosciences, 2019
Understanding the impacts of tsunamis, especially in terms of damage and losses, is important for disaster mitigation and management. The aim of this study is to present our estimations of the potential losses from tsunami damage on Okinawa Island.

Introduction to the special issue on tectonic environment and seabed resources of the southern Okinawa Trough

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2019
Okinawa Trough (OT) is a back-arc basin behind the Ryukyu arc-trench system and located along the eastern margin of the Eurasian continent. It extends from the southwest Kyushu Island to the Ilan Plain of Taiwan (Fig. 1).

Large-scale slope failure and active erosion occurring in the southwest Ryukyu fore-arc area [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2001
The southwestern Ryukyu area east of Taiwan Island is an arcuate boundary between Philippine Sea Plate and Eurasian Plate. The topographic features in the area are characterised by (1) a large-scale amphitheatre off Ishigaki Island, just on the ...
