The 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence
Beginning in April 2016, a series of shallow, moderate to large earthquakes with associated strong aftershocks struck the Kumamoto area of Kyushu, SW Japan. An Mj 7.3 mainshock occurred on 16 April 2016, close to the epicenter of an Mj 6.5 foreshock that occurred about 28 hours earlier. The intense seismicity released the accumulated elastic energy by right-lateral strike slip, mainly along two...
متن کاملHorizontal sliding of kilometre-scale hot spring area during the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake
We report horizontal sliding of the kilometre-scale geologic block under the Aso hot springs (Uchinomaki area) caused by vibrations from the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake (Mw 7.0). Direct borehole observations demonstrate the sliding along the horizontal geological formation at ~50 m depth, which is where the shallowest hydrothermal reservoir developed. Owing to >1 m northwest movement of the geolog...
متن کاملEarthquakes in Oita triggered by the 2016 M7.3 Kumamoto earthquake
During the passage of the seismic waves from the M7.3 Kumamoto, Kyushu, earthquake on April 16, 2016, a M5.7 [semiofficial value estimated by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA)] event occurred in the central part of Oita prefecture, approximately 80 km far away from the mainshock. Although there have been a number of reports that M < 5 earthquakes were remotely triggered during the passage o...
متن کاملSource location and mechanism analysis of an earthquake triggered by the 2016 Kumamoto, southwestern Japan, earthquake
The 2016 Kumamoto earthquake (Mw 7.0) occurred in the central part of Kyushu Island, southwestern Japan, on April 16, 2016. The mainshock triggered an event of maximum acceleration 700 gal that caused severe damage to infrastructure and thousands of homes. We investigate the source location of the triggered event, and the timing of large energy release, by employing the back-projection method f...
متن کاملDamage detection in the 2015 Nepal earthquake using ALOS-2 satellite SAR imagery
The Mw 7.8 earthquake jolted the central region of Nepal on April 25, 2015, and caused gigantic destruction. Satellite remote sensing is an effective tool to grasp damages in a wide area. In this study, preand post-event ALOS-2 satellite SAR data were used to detect affected areas in Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal. Firstly, the crustal movements around the Kathmandu Valley were estimated ...
