TEN Selected Papers: Eradicating Tsunami Disasters, which aims to re-examine the causes of tsunamis and establish new disaster prevention technologies, will be available at e-bookstores from September 13, 2024.

The book focuses on submarine landslides, the cause of giant tsunamis, and presents a selection of the results of disaster prevention research and practice that have been accumulated with the goal of eradicating tsunami disasters.

This book summarizes the progress and achievements of researchers who, since the Great East Japan Earthquake, have focused their attention on submarine landslides, which cause huge tsunamis, and have accumulated practical experience in their efforts to eradicate tsunami disasters.


The theory of submarine landslides as a cause of tsunamis, pointed out by Takuji Ogawa in 1924, was silently dismissed without sufficient discussion in Japan. However, new data accumulated from the Great East Japan Earthquake and the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake have increased the importance of re-examining the relationship between submarine landslides and tsunamis.


The book contains many important texts for disaster management, including a review of the generation mechanisms of tsunamis and earthquakes, and proposals for disaster prediction and countermeasure technologies based on these mechanisms.


Overview "Causes of the Tohoku-Pacific Ocean Earthquake and Tsunami Disaster"

This book contains a newly written introduction by Shigenori Maruyama (Professor Emeritus, Tokyo Institute of Technology) and others.
