Research Abstract |
The differential uplift showing tilting and warping of late Quaternary marine terraces along a 500 km long coast of this eastern margin of Japan Sea is understood due to offshore causative fault movements and related large earthquakes. Shallow submarine reverse fault segments close to the coastlines are undoubtedly responsible for coastal uplift and accumulative marine terrace tilting and warping. Calculating co-seismic displacement distribution to be best fit to paleoshoreline records indicates earthquake magnitude in the range of Mw 6.7-7.6 and recurrence time of several thousand years. This implies that this region has high probability of large magnitude earthquakes accompanied by coastal uplift, which will happen somewhere in near future. Particularly in the several areas, Okushiri Island, Matsumae Peninsula, western margin of Hakodate Plain, Henashi Peninsula and Tobishima Island, where present abrasion platforms widely develop, the next large earthquakes seem imminent.
