Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Detecting the occurrence of a huge earthquake is one of the greatest goals of humanity. Especially in Japan, there are many active faults in the urban area where many people live and in the coastal area where the power plants are distributed. In this research, magnetic fields measurement are employed. We develop a system that uses geomagnetic field signals that fluctuate with earthquake faulting, and examine the feasibility in detail. To develop a high-resolution magnetometer system, we conducted long-term precise geomagnetic observations using a high-temperature superconductor based superconducting quantum-interference device (HTS-SQUID) magnetometer system.
