This is a late-breaking session about the Noto Peninsula Earthquake happened on January 1, 2024. This session is given in Japanese. Another session is given in English for the international dissemination of information.
A Mw 7.5 earthquake struck the northern tip of the Noto Peninsula, Japan, at 16:10JST on January 1, 2024. The earthquake caused extensive damage in the central to northern areas of the peninsula, accompanying a tsunami observed widely along the surrounding coastline. The seismic activity extended about 150 km from the northwest of the Noto Peninsula to the west of Sado Island for the 2024 earthquake, which was preceded by a characteristic seismic swarm activated since 2020. The earthquake caused significant uplift in some parts of the coastal area along with extensive tectonic deformations observed inland, and numerous coseismic landslides in steep terrains as well as liquefaction at lowlands, all of which severely impacted infrastructures. In this session, we will gather the results of investigations and analyses for discussing the earthquake mechanisms, seismic shaking, tsunami(s), landslides, liquefaction, building damages, and disaster response, to share the knowledge for future studies. We expect reports from a wide range of fields related to the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake and related seismic hazards. Those who want to present in English are advised to submit to the "The 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake (2:E)" session.
