| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The study area is situated on the Pacific coast in the Minamisouma City, Fukushima Prefecture, Northeast Japan. We took samples of the 2011 tsunami deposits from thirteen localities. We also drilled on the central part of the area and took 26 m Holocene sediments. The sandy tsunami deposits derived from the beach by the 2011 tsunami, and muddy deposits were deposited in the lagoon, which was formed by the tsunami intrusion and the subsidence of the ground. While, the Holocene estuary-fill is composed of the deposits of backshore, sandy to muddy tidal flat, subtidal estuary and salt marsh with intercalated event sand beds, and artificial fill and paddy soil in ascending order. The event sand beds yield many marine shell fragments. Radiocarbon ages indicate that the event sand layers formed approximately ever 600 years. These characters suggest the possible tsunami deposits. We also studied the flood sand layer in Nagano City, which was form by the Ninna flood in A.D. 888.
