Abstract of the 144th meeting of CCEP

 The 144th meeting of the Coordinating Committee for Earthquake Prediction (CCEP) was held at the Kanto Regional Survey Department of the GSI on Aug. 20,2001. Universities and national research institutes reported and discussed the results of observations and investigations about seismic and crustal activities in Japan. Main topics of discussions are listed below.

• Seismic activities of Japan.
  • fig. 1 The earthquakes of M5 or greater in andnear Japan. (JMA)
• Seismic activities and the Crustal deformations of the Tokai district.
  • fig. 2 Seismic activities in the crust near the inferred locked zone of the Tokai earthquake since 1997. (JMA)
  • fig. 3 Seismic activities in the Philippine Sea slab near the inferred locked zone of the Tokai earthquake since 1997. (JMA)
  • fig. 4 Result of precise leveling (repeated 4 times a year) the route between Mori and Omaezaki via Kakegawa. (GSI)
  • fig. 5 Time series of height change of BM2595 (Hamaoka) as referenced to BM140-1 (Kakegawa). (GSI)
