Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Long-period ground motions have often been observed in plain and basin areas on land at moderate to large earthquakes. However, the generation and development of such motions in ocean areas have only been suggested indirectly by simulation results reproducing land station data. In this study, we showed observational evidence for "long-period ocean-bottom motions" from strong-motion data in deep seafloor areas around the Nankai trough, southwestern Japan. We also reproduced characteristics of observed long-period ocean-bottom motions with computer simulations of seismic wave propagation. Our simulation results demonstrated that low-velocity oceanic sediment layers around the trough areas significantly contribute to the development of the motions.
