The Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory (MIU) project is being pursued by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) to enhance the reliability of relevant disposal technologies through investigations of the deep geological environment within the host crystalline rock at Mizunami City in Gifu, central Japan. The project consists of major research areas, "Geoscientific Research", and proceeds in three overlapping phases, "Phase I: Surface-based investigation Phase", "Phase II: Construction Phase" and "Phase III: Operation Phase". The present report summarizes the research and development activities planned for fiscal year 2013 based on the MIU Master Plan updated in 2010.

The Japanese islands are located in the tectonically active Circum-Pacific Mobile Belt. As a result, Japan has a high frequency of earthquakes and eruptions. Special consideration is given to the long-term stability of the geological environment in Japan. Development of research/prediction technologies for geotectonic events has been carried out to evaluate the long-term stability of the geological environment in Japan. During fiscal year 2006, we carried out the following researches, to confirm existence of the phenomena that have influences on geological disposal system, and to develop the research techniques to reconstruct the history of these phenomena. For studies of active faulting and seismic activity, we reviewed the existing techniques to research past activities and distribution of active faults (migration, extension, development process of a deformation zone). For volcanological and geothermal studies, we extracted a technique for detecting crustal magma and/or geothermal fluid in deep underground using geophysical and geochemical data, and models assessing the likelihood of future volcanism and its influence on geological environment. For studies of uplift/denudation and climatic/sea-level change, we constructed conceptual models such as landform development model.

The Japanese islands are located in the tectonically active Circum-Pacific Mobile Belt. As a result, Japan has a high frequency of earthquakes and eruptions. Special consideration is given to the long-term stability of the geological environment, taking into account volcanism, faulting, uplift, denudation, climatic change and sea-level change in Japan. Development of research/prediction technologies for geotectonic events has been carried out to evaluate the long-term stability of the geological environment in Japan. Until fiscal year 2005, to confirm existence of phenomena that have a influence on geological disposal system (e.g. active fault or Quarternary volcanoes) and to confirm that there was not the trace that the phenomena occurred in the past and to predict/evaluate possibility of the phenomena, development of the research/prediction techniques for geotectonic events (e.g. Research techniques for earthquake source faults, Research techniques for detecting magmas and high-temperature fluids, Three-dimensional landform development simulator) were carried out. This report describes our efforts of these technologies based on its R&D program until fiscal year 2005.

Concerning active fault and seismic activity, information maintenance for research of an activity history and distribution of an active fault (movement, extension, development process of a deformation zone) will be carried out. For volcanological and geothermal studies, we are planning to examine a technique for detecting crustal magma and/or geothermal fluid in deep underground using geophysical and geochemical data, and models assessing the likelihood of future volcanism and its influence on geological environment. Concerning uplift, denudation, climatic change and sea-level change, making of concept model for landform development will be carried out.

The Japanese islands are located in the tectonically active Circum-Pacific Mobile Belt. As a result, Japan has a high frequency of earthquakes and eruptions. Special consideration is given to the long-term stability of the geological environment. Development of research/prediction technologies for geotectonic events has been carried out to evaluate the long-term stability of the geological environment in Japan. During fiscal year 2007, development of the research/prediction techniques about the following items will be carried out. Concerning active fault and seismic activity, case study for research of an activity history and distribution of an active fault (movement, extension, a development process of a deformation zone) will be carried out. For volcanological and geothermal studies, we are planning to provide an integrated approach for detecting crustal magma and/or geothermal fluid in deep underground using geophysical and geochemical data, and models assessing the likelihood of future volcanism and its influence on geological environment. Concerning uplift, denudation, climatic change and sea-level change, development of techniques that researches paleo-topography and paleo-environment and that simulates of landforms will be carried out. In addition, maintenance of development of analytical methods to perform the data acquisition that is necessary for these studies will be carried out.
