  • Fault Model of the 12Th Century Southwestern Hokkaido Earthquake
    Ioki et al. Earth, Planets and Space (2019) 71:54 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40623-019-1034-6 FULL PAPER Open Access Fault model of the 12th century southwestern Hokkaido earthquake estimated from tsunami deposit distributions Kei Ioki1* , Yuichiro Tanioka2, Gentaro Kawakami3, Yoshihiro Kase3, Kenji Nishina3, Wataru Hirose3, Kei’ichi Hayashi3 and Ryo Takahashi3 Abstract Tsunami deposits were collected along the coast of southwestern Hokkaido and Okushiri Island, northern Japan. The distribution of these deposits suggested that large earthquakes and tsunamis have repeatedly occurred of south- western Hokkaido. Along the southern coast of Okushiri Island, fve tsunami sand/gravel layers have been deposited during the last 3000 years. The latest was deposited by the 1741 Oshima–Oshima landslide tsunami and the second by the 12th century tsunami. The later tsunami was probably generated by a large earthquake because submarine seismo-turbidites with similar age exist in the region and a large inland landslide had occurred in Okushiri Island in approximately the 12th century. The ages of paleo-tsunami events prior to the 12th century are 1.5–1.6, 2.4–2.6, 2.8–3.1 ka. In this study, a fault model of the 12th century earthquake was estimated by comparing tsunami deposit distributions and calculated tsunami inundation areas at fve sites in Okushiri Island and Hiyama region. Fault model F17, a submarine active fault in the Japan Sea near Oshima–Oshima, is a probable source for this tsunami. Numerical simulation of the tsunami was performed based on fault model F17; we modifed the fault parameters (length and slip amount) from the original model to explain tsunami deposit distributions.

  • Volcanic Origin of the 1741 Oshima-Oshima Tsunami in the Japan Sea
    Earth Planets Space, 59, 381–390, 2007 Volcanic origin of the 1741 Oshima-Oshima tsunami in the Japan Sea Kenji Satake Active Fault Research Center, National Institute of Advance Industrial Science and Technology, 1-1-1 Higashi, Tsukuba 305-8567, Japan (Received September 25, 2006; Revised January 9, 2007; Accepted January 19, 2007; Online published June 8, 2007) The generation mechanism of the 1741 Oshima-Oshima tsunami, which is considered to be the most destructive tsunami that has ever originated in the Japan Sea, has been the subject of much debate. The tsunami caused about 2,000 casualties along the Hokkaido and northern Honsu coasts and inflicted damage as far as the Korean Peninsula. The tsunami source is located between recent tsunamigenic earthquakes, but there is no historical record of an earthquake in 1741. In contrast, the records indicate volcanic activity of Oshima-Oshima, including a large-scale sector collapse, although the volume change associated with the subaerial landslide is too small to explain the observed tsunami heights. Recent marine surveys indicate that the landslide extended to the ocean bottom with a volume change of about 2.5 km3, nearly an order of magnitude larger than the subaerial slide. On the basis of mapped bathymetry, the generation of the tsunami is calculated using a simple kinematic landslide model. The tsunami propagation is computed in two different grids—a 6 grid around the source and a 1 grid for the entire Japan Sea. A parameter search of the model shows that the observed tsunami heights are best explained by a horizontal slide velocity of 40 m/s and a rise time of 2 min.
