To improve a geochemical discrimination method of paleotsunami deposit, quantitative analysis of major and trace elements in boring cores from the Shizuoka plain on the Pacific coast of middle Japan was performed using a portable energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry system (portable XRF). Geochemical approaches by the portable XRF contribute to study of the simple and rapid methods for detecting paleotsunami deposits. Most of our quantitative data by portable XRF were good agreement with reported values measured by stationary-type energy dispersive XRF in previous studies. Therefore, the portable XRF can be applied to geochemical study in the samples from Shizuoka plain in our case.

On July 3 2021, a debris flow caused by a landslide from a landfill occurred along the Aizome River in the Izusan area of Atami City, Shizuoka. In this study, debris flow deposits and soil samples were characterized in terms of their sedimentology and geochemically analyzed.

Times Cited Count：3 Percentile：32.31(Geochemistry & Geophysics)Geochemical signatures of natural samples could be an effective proxy to identify paleo tsunami deposits. However, less geochemical approach has been applied in the Pacific coast of middle Japan. Therefore, geochemical characteristics of the paleo tsunami deposits were studied using geological samples from the Shizuoka plain in the Pacific coast of middle Japan, and this paper shows the first geochemical dataset of paleo tsunami deposits from the area. In this study, typical geochemical biplots and ternary diagrams were applied to discriminate the paleo tsunami deposits from other layers. Additionally, vertical and horizontal distributions of titanium normalized values and statistical methods of geochemical data could provide the information for characteristic of the deposits to detect prehistorical tsunami inundation.

To identify chronological and spatial changes in the radiocarbon (
C) marine reservoir effects, the C ages of eight pairs of marine shells and terrestrial plants were measured from the same horizons of one core of Holocene sediments around Japan. To determine the direct chronological changes of the marine reservoir effect between the Kuroshio and Oyashio Currents, radiocarbon ages were measured from the same stratigraphic horizons within Holocene sediment cores alomg the Pasific coast of Japan (eastern Hokkaido; Nanayama et al., 2003, Nanayama, 2020, Sanriku Coast; Niwa et al., 2017, 2019, Arakawa Lowland; Komatsubara et al., 2009, 2010, Shimizu Plain; Kitamura and Kobayashi, 2014; Nobi Plain) and Taiwan.
