Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Conducting crustal deformation analysis using synthetic aperture radar satellite data, we have successfully revealed that the fault slip for the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake progressively converged just after penetrating a few km into the Aso caldera. We inferred the density contrast structure using gravity data, and found that a low-density body exists in the shallow part of the western edge of the caldera at a depth of a few km. The fault slip penetrated the low-density region, and then dissipated. It is suggested that a hydrothermal environment has developed in the region, resulting in a high-temperature crustal structure which could prevent from further brittle rupture. Our numerical simulation of dynamic rupture indicates that the presence of low stress field in the caldera is closely related to the terminus of fault rupture.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
内陸地震における断層末端のすべりの様子とその周囲の地殻構造を従来にない高い空間分解能で捉えたことにより、火山地域における高温の地熱地帯が断層破壊の停止に強く関与していたことを明らかにした。このことは、地震と火山の相互作用が断層破壊の停止の要因を考える上で重要な視点となり得ることを当該研究分野に示すものである。
