Research
Recent investigations include,
①Studies of crustal heterogeneity around earthquake source regions and
active faults to improve
long-term evaluations of earthquake occurrence
②Studies of the regional and global conductivity structure of the Earth’s
interior
③Studies of changes in local geomagnetic fields in association with crustal
activities
④Studies of spatial distribution of SP and its temporal changes
⑤Studies of the recovery process of the Nojima fault following the Kobe
earthquake, using water injection
experiments

shown in the left panel with red circles. Black dots denote hypocenters
of normal earthquakes and Stars show low frequency earthquakes too place
immediately beneath Mt. Fuji.
