| Research Abstract |
Holocene marine terraces occur on the coastal plains around the Aira caldera in the Kagoshima bay, southern Kyushu. The chronology and distribution of the elevation of those terrace surfaces and deposits were examined on the basis of tephra beds and^<14> C dates. As a result, Holocene upwarping centred by the Aira caldera, previously suggested, was confirmed. This upwarping is likely related to the volcanic activity of the Aira caldera.
