Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.00(Geography, Physical)To estimate long-term rates of coastal uplift along the northern Pacific coast of Northeast Japan, we determined the surface exposure ages of marine and fluvial terraces based on terrestrial in situ cosmogenic radionuclide dating of exposed bedrock surfaces. Based on reinterpretation of marine and fluvial terraces, we collected samples from the northern and southern Sanriku coast. The surface exposure ages from 
Be concentrations in quartz calculated from the measured Be/
Be ratios commonly suggest middle to late Pleistocene ages for the marine and fluvial terraces and slow coastal uplift rates at intermediate timescales. The results demonstrate different styles of crustal strain accommodation in the northern Northeast Japan arc above the subducting Pacific plate.

The Yugamine fault, 10 km in length, is in the north-central part of the Atera fault zone. We studied Holocene activity of the Yugamine fault through a trenching survey. Some humic layers and fluvial gravels are exposed on the trench walls. The Yugamine fault has cut through these layers to form a linear depression on its NE side. From the structural evidence along the fault plane and angular unconformity, we recognize at least four faulting events in this trench.

We present the results of a pit survey conducted in the middle part of the Atera fault zone and 
C dating of black soil. Samples were collected continuously from the black soil on both sides of the fault at intervals of approximately 5 cm in the depth direction. The dating sample was treated with hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide and separated into an alkali-soluble component (humic acid) and an insoluble component (humin). As a result of the dating, the age values generally become younger from the bottom to the surface. In detail, we can see parts where the age gradually become younger towards the surface, parts where the age are almost the same continuously, and parts where the age are reversed. The parts where the age gradually decreases toward the surface is considered to be a normal forest condition where black soil gradually forms over time. A succession of the same age values suggests the formation of a rapid deposition field. The age reversal suggests that older black soil was redeposited on top. These results indicate some event. For example, it is possible that old black soil was rapidly supplied from the upper layer after the fault displacement. We must carefully consider the type of event.

In order to clarify the stratigraphic correlation around the fault and the timing of faulting event, we carried out radiocarbon dating of the black soil sampled from the trench wall of the Atera Fault. The dating results show that the soil ages varies from 4,000 to 2,000 years with depth. Black soil was deposited at approximately constant rate each at both sides of the fault in 4,000-2,000 years ago. This indicates that the fault wasn't displaced during this period. In the upper part, there is no variation in ages of black soils with depth. This suggests that sedimentation rate was faster. One of the causes that the sedimentation rate around the fault suddenly changes is fault displacement. It is thought that the faulting was about 2,000 years ago. About this timing, it is necessary to consider in behavioral segments of Atera fault zone in detail.

This study proposes the exact identification method of faulting events. Radiocarbon ages of the black soil collected continuously from lower to upper part clarify the timing of faulting events. We sampled the black soil without space from the excavated trench wall of the active fault. The soil ages in footwall varied from 9,500 to 2,000 years ago with depth. The soil deposited at approximately a constant rate. However, there are partially the anomalous ages. The anomalies are probably caused by fault displacements, which means the collapse of hanging wall with old soil and the making of depression at the footwall side. The anomalous ages may suggest that faulting events took place in about 7,500, 6,000, 3,500, and 2,000 years ago. Our future research will be to apply this method to the soil of other active fault trench wall to clarify the timing of faulting events.

Be dating of middle-late Pleistocene uplifted marine terraces in northern Pacific coast of Northeastern JapanWakasa, Sachi*; Ishiyama, Tatsuya*; Hirouchi, Daisuke*; Matta, Nobuhisa*; Fujita, Natsuko; Echigo, Tomoo*

Surface exposure ages of marine and fluvial terraces based on in situ Be dating were determined to estimate formation ages and long-term rates of coastal uplift along the northern Pacific coast of Northeastern Japan. Surface exposure ages from Be concentrations in quartz calculated from the measured Be/Be ratios commonly suggest slow in both sites, whereas steep dip domains on the marine terraces along the northern Sanriku coast may imply localized permanent strain accumulation.

The Kamishiro fault is part of the northern section of the Itoigawa-Shizuoka Tectonic Line fault zone, and is an active, east-dipping reverse fault that runs north-south from the southern part of Otari Village, Nagano Prefecture, to the southern part of Lake Kizaki, Omachi City. In this study, we confirmed the displacement of a secondary fault in a pit survey carried out on a terrace surface that was raised by the vertical displacement of the active fault. From the results of observation of the strata and radiocarbon dating, we were able to determine the time of activity. However, because this pit is narrow and shallow, it is not possible to grasp the detailed displacement and deformation associated with multiple activities. It is necessary to conduct trench surveys across the faults confirmed in this study to obtain a detailed understanding of the activity. Furthermore, based on the results of this survey, it is necessary to consider the activity of the main fault from the secondary fault.
