The earthquake killed one person and injured more than 250 people. The strong ground motions were quite high in the epicentral area with high frequency components. The earthquake fault was associated with a known fault just off the north shore of the Noto Peninsula. This fault dips beneath Noto Peninsula. Some surface ruptures were observed in Monzen town. However, these surface ruptures might be those associated with the conjugate faults to the causative earthquake fault. The earthquake caused the collapse of old wooden houses with heavy roofs. The highways, railways and Noto airport runway were damaged.

Satoyama and satoumi are connected by the physical circulation of nutrients from the forests to the rivers and into the sea, and a steady, seamless connection is vital for the maintaining healthy natural ecosystems. This “forest-river-sea connectedness” in satoyama and satoumi forms an integrated ecosystem, and together satoyama -satoumi landscapes provide three key ecosystem services: provisioning services of food and natural material resources supplied by satoyama -satoumi to human communities; regulating services such as climate control, water quality control, wildlife habitat regulation, disaster control and coastal water environments maintenance; and cultural services which form the very foundation of Japanese society and traditional landscape practices. Hence, satoyama -satoumi is the Japanese concept for long-standing traditions associated with land and, more recently, coastal management practices which have allowed sustainable use of the resources from the past to present, and is thus a historical model for environmental stewardship and resource management that contributes to human well-being.
