[S-SS31] Active faults and paleoseismology

Mon. May 23, 2016 10:45 AM - 12:15 PM IC (2F)

Convener:*Mamoru Koarai(Earth Science course, College of Science, Ibaraki University), Hisao Kondo(Geological Survey of Japan, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology), Ken-ichi Yasue(Japan Atomic Energy Agency), Hideaki Goto(Graduate school of letters, Hiroshima University), Chair:Hisao Kondo(Geological Survey of Japan, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology), Ritsuko S. Matsu'ura(Earthquake Research Center, Association for the Development of Earthquake Prediction)

Geologic and historic information on seismic cycles and on the magnitude and source faults of past earthquakes is essential information to understand future large earthquakes. The study of past faulting and seismicity is an important issue for an interdisciplinary community of seismologists, geologists, geomorphologists, archaeologists, and historians.
