Outline of Final Research Achievements

For the first time, an approximately 4 meter long continuous sample of the floor of Lake Motosu was obtained. The material was analyzed in detail and the relationship between depth below the lake floor and sediment depositional age precisely determined. From this an 8,000 year record of ash fall from Mt. Fuji was obtained and the eruption history reconstructed. This resulted in revisions in the ages of eruptions as determined from land-based studies, as well as the identification of two previously unknown eruptions. Oxygen isotopes of aquatic cellulose was also used to clarify past precipitation changes.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

一般な方向きの講義を数回行ったの上、研究結果が国内外に広く報道された。富士山は噴火した場合の社会的影響が非常に危惧される火山であることから、本研究は、将来の噴火や災害の予測をする上で重要な成果となるものです。酸素同位体分析を用いて、湖のセルロースから古降水量の変化も明らかにした。
