| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Stereoscopic interpretation of high-resolution LiDAR DEMs reveals that as many as more than 10,000 sackung (deep-seated gravitational slope deformation; DSGSD) features are hidden under forest canopies in the western Mino Mountains, central Japan. Our analysis suggests that the density of sackung features is controlled by presence of active faults as well as topography (altitude and ridgeness). We also conducted trilling and pit excavation studies at sackung features concentrated adjacent to the northern tip of the active Neodani fault and found that those features began to be created after the last glacial maximum, with multiple deformation episodes since then.
