Seismic reflection profiles across coseismic fault scarps of the A.D. 1896 Rikuu earthquake along the eastern margin of the Yokote basin fault zone (EYBFZ), correlated with borehole stratigraphy and geologic mapping, provide insights into its detailed structural evolution. In spite of along-strike variations of thrust geometries both at ground surface and at shallow depth, the EYBFZ has commonly formed as forward breaking imbricate thrust systems. Spatial variations in the long-term uplift rates estimated from cross-section balancing are consistent with mountain topography, in contrast to their weak coupling with the magnitudes of short-term uplift rates and coseismic uplift during the A.D. 1896 earthquake. This suggests that mechanical decoupling of Miocene mudstone that formed frontal emergent thrust faults may have enhanced the slip at shallowest structural levels at shorter timescales.

Active tectonics of the Senya Hills and evolution of the Senya Active Fault, Eastern margin of the Yokote Basin Fault Zone, Northeast Japan

The eastern marginal fault zone of the Yokote Basin is one of seismogenic reverse faults developed in Northeast Japan, generating the 1896 Riku-u Earthquake (M7.2). We discussed the relationship among fault traces, geomorphic displacements and fault geometries on the Senya fault, based on a data from high-resolution seismic reflection profiling, investigations in tectonic geomorphology and structural geology, with the help of the balanced cross section method. By the restoring the balanced cross sections, the horizontal shortening amount is estimated to be totally 3 km through the thrust system, and the thrusting is retroactive to 2.4 Ma. Depending on the strike of fault traces and the morphotectonic features, the Senya fault is subdivided into three, the northern, central and southern portion. The initiation of thrust front migration is ca.1.6 Ma at the central portion and 0.6 Ma at the northern portion. This means that the central portion preceded the northern portion as an emergent fault, and suggests that the initial propagated fault extends from the fault end to the boundary fault.

$$^{10}$$Be dating of middle-late Pleistocene uplifted marine terraces in northern Pacific coast of Northeastern Japan

Wakasa, Sachi*; Ishiyama, Tatsuya*; Hirouchi, Daisuke*; Matsuta, Nobuhisa*; Fujita, Natsuko; Echigo, Tomoo*

no journal, , 

Surface exposure ages of marine and fluvial terraces based on in situ $$^{10}$$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 $$^{10}$$Be concentrations in quartz calculated from the measured $$^{10}$$Be/$$^{9}$$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.
