| Research Abstract |
The 2004 Mid Niigata Prefecture earthquake, also known as the 2004 Niigata Prefecture Chuetsu earthquake occurred on October 23, 2004 at 17 : 56. The epicenter of this earthquake was near Kawaguchi and it is observed that the seismic ground motion was the intensity 7. The casualties were 68 killed and 4, 795 wounded and the number of damaged house was 120, 837. The aged in the mountain area were damaged by this earthquake and the districts were subject to twice heavy snowfall. From the standpoint of the life support, the living in the place of refuge and temporary prefabricated house, the traditional industry and the emergency food were investigated.

In the living at refuge, there is a possibility of further study on the care of the aged, relief goods and temporary privy. Because of the cold season, the sufferers desired to have hot meals. The temporary prefabricated houses were arranged in consideration of their community. A serious problem was the brainfag in temporary prefabricated house. Some tenants desired to prolong the time limit of leaving. The traditional industry such as Ojiya-chijimi was in a critical situation from the lack of hands.
A strong earthquake occurred on 10 : 13, July 15, 2007 at Niigataken Chuetsu-oki. In and around Kashiwazaki, it is observed that the seismic ground motion was the intensity 6 upper. New topics such as Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plants were taken up for discussion.
