Sakurajima Case Study
Sakurajima Case Study. This case study has been developed to support students studying Edexcel B GCSE Geography. Japan is located on a convergent plate boundary where the Eurasian plate is subducted by the Pacific and Philipinnes plates, causing a series of volcanoes. Sakurajima, Japan's most active volcano, is located on the southern island ...
Activated volcanism of Mount Fuji by the 2011 Japanese large

Underwater Volcano Forms New Island in Japan
An Undersea Volcano Is Building a New Island in Japan An ongoing eruption from the volcano has created a small land mass less than a mile off Iwo Jima island. It's a great case study of how ...
Report on Aira (Japan)
The Aira caldera in the northern half of Kagoshima Bay contains the post-caldera Sakurajima volcano, one of Japan's most active. Eruption of the voluminous Ito pyroclastic flow accompanied formation of the 17 x 23 km caldera about 22,000 years ago. The smaller Wakamiko caldera was formed during the early Holocene in the NE corner of the caldera ...
Vulcanian eruptions at Sakurajima Volcano: geophysical data, numerical
Seismic velocity in previous studies (Ishihara 1990; Iguchi 1994) used a homogeneous structure with a P-wave velocity of 2.5 km/s, whereas this study used a velocity structure derived from the analyses of an active experiment using artificial sources conducted at Sakurajima Volcano in 2008 (Miyamachi et al. 2013).More than 300 seismometers were deployed along lines in and around Sakurajima ...
Tourists' behavior for volcanic disaster risk reduction: A case study
In addition to the aforementioned studies, we previously conducted a preliminary study of tourists' awareness of disaster preparedness, as well as disaster information communication, during the 2018 eruption of Japan's Kusatsu-Shirane volcano [31]. This preliminary study focused on skiers stranded near the volcano's summit after a sudden ...
Long-term change of the eruption activities of Sakurajima volcano
1 Department of Planetology, Graduate School of Science, Kobe University, Kobe, Japan; 2 Geological Survey of Japan (AIST), Tsukuba, Japan; 3 Board of Education, Aira Municipal Government, Aira, Japan; Stratigraphic analysis of fallout tephra deposits in and around a volcano provides a framework for understanding the long-term temporal change in the volcano's activities.

We selected the Taisho (1914) eruption of the Sakurajima volcano, as our case study. This was the strongest eruption in Japan in the last century, and our study provides a baseline for a worst-case scenario. We employed one eruption scenario (OES) approach by replicating the actual event under various extended weather conditions to show how it ...
Tourists' behavior for volcanic disaster risk reduction: A case study

Examining the statistical relationships between volcanic seismic
Sakurajima volcano in Japan is known for frequent eruptions containing prolific volcanic lightning. Previous studies from eruptions at Redoubt have shown preliminary correlations between seismic, infrasound, and radio frequency signals. ...

Japan's Volcanic Research in Distress: Ontake Eruption Exposes the Dire

Elastostatic effects around a magma reservoir and pathway due to
We discuss elastostatic effects on Mt. Fuji, the tallest volcano in Japan, due to historic earthquakes in Japan. The 1707 Hoei eruption, which was the most explosive historic eruption of Mt. Fuji, occurred 49 days after the Hoei earthquake (Mw 8.7) along the Nankai Trough. It was previously suggested that the Hoei earthquake induced compression of a basaltic magma reservoir and unclamping of a ...
Volcanic Emergency Management in Japan: Case Histories of ...
Abstract. This chapter describes how scientists and civil authorities coped with two recent eruptive episodes in Japan, each of which led to mass evacuation, and significant economic disruption: (1) the 1986 fissure eruption of the basaltic volcano Izu-Oshima; and (2) the long-lived eruptive activity at the dacitic volcano Unzen that started in ...
Orographic effects on the transport and deposition of volcanic ash: A
For the case of Sakurajima we focused on the lee side of the Satsuma Peninsula, west of the volcano; specifically on the three most distal stations (shown with larger symbols in Figures 2a-2d). Orographic effects over the volcano not studied at this point, as ash from the large number of weak eruptions that occur every month, are expected to ...

Volcano Sakurajima is seen on March 8, 2022, in Japan's southern prefecture of Kagoshima. Japan's Meteorological Agency said a volcano on Japan's southern main island of Kyushu erupted Sunday night, July 24, 2022, spewing ash and volcanic rocks, but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries in nearby towns.

Preliminary Observations and Impact in Japan of the Tsunami Caused by
The tsunami caused by the Tonga submarine volcanic eruption that occurred at 13:15 Japan Time (JST) on January 15, 2022, exposed a blind spot in Japan's tsunami monitoring and warning system, which was established in 1952 for local tsunamis and expanded to distant tsunamis after the 1960 Chile tsunami. This paper summarizes how the warning system responded to the unprecedented tsunami, the ...

Temporal variations of magma composition, eruption style and rate at
Mt. Fuji is an active basaltic volcano near the Tokyo metropolitan area; future eruptions could thus have serious nationwide impacts. To better understand recent volcanism at Fuji Volcano, we here clarify temporal variations of eruption rate and magma composition since 5.6 ka based on time-series volumetric and geochemical data of eruptive products in a new stratigraphic sequence. Volcanic ...
Cause and risk of catastrophic eruptions in the Japanese Archipelago
The Japanese Archipelago is characterized by active volcanism with variable eruption styles. The magnitude (M)-frequency relationships of catastrophic caldera-forming eruptions (M ≥ 7) are statistically different from those of smaller eruptions (M ≤ 5.7), suggesting that different mechanisms control these eruptions.We also find that volcanoes prone to catastrophic eruptions are located in ...
The Mt. Unzen Disaster: A Terrible Learning Experience
The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) defines volcanoes that have been active at some time during the past 10,000 years, or which have active fumaroles, as active volcanoes. To indicate the degree of volcanic activity, the JMA devised an alert system in November 2003 (0-5; see Table 12.1 ) for active volcanoes, many of which are continuously ...
