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 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 کاملSpatial and temporal seismic velocity changes on Kyushu Island during the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake
Monitoring of earthquake faults and volcanoes contributes to our understanding of their dynamic mechanisms and to our ability to predict future earthquakes and volcanic activity. We report here on spatial and temporal variations of seismic velocity around the seismogenic fault of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake [moment magnitude (Mw) 7.0] based on ambient seismic noise. Seismic velocity near the r...
متن کاملNear-fault deformation and Dc′′ during the 2016 Mw7.1 Kumamoto earthquake
An Mw7.1 Kumamoto earthquake occurred at 01:25:05 on April 16, 2016 (JST). The earthquake involved a rupture at a shallow depth along a strike-slip fault with surface breaks. Near-fault ground motion records, especially those of a strike-slip earthquake, can provide us with direct information on the earthquake source process. During the earthquake, near-fault seismograms were obtained at KMMH16...
متن کاملStrong motions observed by K-NET and KiK-net during the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence
The nationwide strong-motion seismograph network of K-NET and KiK-net in Japan successfully recorded the strong ground motions of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake sequence, which show the several notable characteristics. For the first large earthquake with a JMA magnitude of 6.5 (21:26, April 14, 2016, JST), the large strong motions are concentrated near the epicenter and the strong-motion attenuat...
