Outline of Final Research Achievements

Along the coastal areas in Miyagi Prefecture, the Great East Japan Earthquake produced countless disaster heritage. We performed a field survey and documents investigation on them to clarify the significance in science or in the disaster reduction. These results will be used for the education of disaster reduction for a child and the citizen. To achieve this goal, we need the text book for the science communicator or geoguide to explain the significance of the disaster heritage. We chose 243 learning point (mainly disaster heritage) by the field and literature investigation. Also we made an explanation story for the education tour around those areas. The results were summarized in one guide book and three leaflets.
