| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Geodetic observations at the seafloor will play important role to understand the stage of earthquake occurring. We have performed the development and several tests of the BBOBST-NX, which enables the broadband seismic and tilt observation at the seafloor, after the land test in 2010. The practical long-term test observation off Boso Peninsula, where sloe slip events (SSE) recurred, had been started in April 2013. In January 2014, the SSE occurred, and we recovered the BBOBST-NX in April 2014. After the analysis, a large tilt signal (5~ micro rad) near the period of the SSE was recognized. Although the maximum velocity of the bottom current at this site was 35 cm/s, we could observe this tilt signal clearly. So that, effectiveness of the tilt observation at the seafloor by the BBOBST-NX is proved well. We will continue more detailed test observations of two-years-long period at two different sites in 2015 for evaluation of annual change in the tilt dara.
