[O02-P44] Chase of Rifu Fault

*Misaki Sasaki1, Rikiya Kon'no1, Rika Kawahara1, Ayaka Suda1 (1.Miyagi Rifu senior high school)

Keywords:Rifu Fault, Active Fault, in situ observation

In order to investigate earthquake systems, understanding fault constructions is important. In fact, between east-Japan MEGA earthquake which we experienced and Nagamachi-Rifu fault earthquake is complete other system, it is valuable to investigate relation of fault’s affects to human society.
It is obviously existed of the fault under our region, just our school, but we have had poor information of the fault location along our region with thick soils and heavy urbanization. Therefore, we gathered them of fault location and discussed fault affects in our area.
