The world falls victim to many natural disasters, including disasters from tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tornados, hurricanes, floods, landslides, and droughts.Above all, attention has been drawn to destructive tsunamis and earthquakes, such as the 2004 Sumatra earthquake and tsunami, the 2010 Chile earthquake, and the 2011 East Japan earthquake and tsunami.My personal experience with disasters, tsunamis, and earthquakes has taught me that they can cause severe damage to buildings, the environment, and people in societies in coastal areas (Fig. 1).Since the East Japan earthquake a

We revisited the lessons of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake Tsunami disaster specifically on the response and impact, and discussed the paradigm shift of Japan's tsunami disaster management policies and the perspectives for reconstruction. Revisiting the modern histories of Tohoku tsunami disasters and pre-2011 tsunami countermeasures, we clarified how Japan's coastal communities have prepared for tsunamis. The discussion mainly focuses on structural measures such as seawalls and breakwaters and non-structural measures of hazard map and evacuation. The responses to the 2011 event are disc

The tsunami following the 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku Earthquake devastated ports in the Tohoku and Kanto regions of Japan. Even Iwate Prefecture in Tohoku, which had experienced many tsunami disasters and prepared tsunami disaster mitigation measures, incurred great devastation because the tsunami was both higher than any historically recorded tsunamis and than any estimated tsunamis for disaster management. The tsunami-induced inundation destroyed many of wooden houses widely found in the area. Many ships and boats at sea were displaced by the tsunami, with some vessels colliding wi

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper introduces three catastrophic landslide disasters on the tectonic orogenic belt in Western Japan caused by rainfalls or earthquakes and the countermeasures against them. The first case story is the mega slide of Unzen-Mayuyama of Quaternary volcanic rock due to the 1792 earthquake. The landslide and subsequent tsunami caused the worst Japanese landslide-induced disaster in Shimabara and Ariake Bay. The stone pillars installed after the disaster, indicating the arrival points of the tsunami will generate awareness of the tsunami caused by landslides for future generations. Secondly, the Kumamoto earthquake of 2016 has induced many shallow landslides on tephra-covered slopes and massive slope failures that disrupted highway and rail traffic. Unmanned construction to secure workers has been introduced to stabilize the slope failure early. There is an urgent need for research on the identification of hazardous slopes for landslides on tephra-covered slopes. Thirdly, the Hiroshima disaster in 2018 was characterized by landslides, mainly in the suburban residential areas in Hiroshima City, where heavy rains have caused landslides from the weathered soil, so-called “Masa,” of granitic rocks. Similar disasters occurred in 1999 and 2014 in Hiroshima. The restoration project has been carried out by adopting necessary structural measures such as Sabo dams and non-structural measures such as land use regulations and/or early warning systems based on the Sediment Disaster Prevention Act.

AbstractWith a magnitude of 9.0, the Great East Japan Earthquake of 11 March 2011 was the largest earthquake ever recorded in Japan. The subsequent tsunami caused extensive damage in the Tohoku region. Furthermore, the unforeseen Fukushima nuclear power plant accident was extremely devastating as well. Local governments and the central government, which had prepared for disaster response based on their experience with previous earthquakes, responded immediately and worked quickly to restore and rebuild afterwards. Reconstruction was largely completed ten years later. However, as there was no knowledge of the nuclear accident, the response was delayed, and subsequent recovery is still in the process of completion. Further efforts should be made from a long-term perspective.

Abstract Having experienced firsthand the catastrophic Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami of 2011, Tohoku University founded the International Research Institute of Disaster Science (IRIDeS) in 2012. IRIDeS staff, with a broad array of relevant specializations, conducts world-class research on disaster science and disaster mitigation in collaboration with organizations from many countries. As a member of IRIDeS, Prof. Osamu Murao, the founder and manager of the International Strategy for Disaster Mitigation Laboratory (ISDM), has conducted several international collaborative research projects. This chapter briefly reports on the activities of the IRIDeS and ISDM and highlights key factors for successful international collaborative research and exchange experiences with other countries. The author recounts his initial collaborative research experience in a long-term project examining Taiwan’s recovery from the impact of the 1999 Chi-Chi Earthquake which was the foundation of the international research collaboration at ISDM. The chapter concludes with a summary of the valuable lessons learned from the author’s participation in this research.

Abstract:
AbstractA decade has passed since the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami struck. Despite increasing awareness that concrete-based coastal infrastructure, such as seawalls, is not sufficient to protect against unfathomable events, engineering structures still play a significant role in fortifying coastal communities. Meanwhile, purely nature-based approaches (i.e., coastal forests) also have limitations against cataclysmic waves, and there remain uncertainties regarding their ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction functions (Eco-DRR). In tackling these issues, hybrid infrastructure, which combines both gray and green components, has received growing interest. However, little research has been conducted to evaluate the economic values of coastal gray, green, and hybrid infrastructures under uncertainties in terms of people’s preferences.Therefore, in this study, we aimed to (1) quantify the economic value of coastal ecosystem services, including species richness, landscape, recreational services, and disaster risk reduction, under uncertainties through choice experiments; (2) clarify the differences in preferences for preparations against long-cycle tsunamis between those who reside in tsunami-prone areas and those who do not, using a conditional logit (CL) model; and (3) discuss the heterogeneities in coastal citizen perceptions by comparing the CL and mixed logit (ML) model. As a result, this study highlights the importance of considering the heterogeneity of preferences. Furthermore, our respondents in the tsunami-prone group (TPG) valued the coastal defense function offered by gray more highly than the non-TPG, demonstrating an especially large gap regarding seawalls against short-cycle tsunamis (willingness-to-pay (WTP) values of 11,233 JPY and 5958 JPY, respectively). However, there was no significance for coastal forests in the TPG, reflecting the importance of disaster prevention function offered by gray infrastructure. In addition, the hybrid landscape (seawalls + coastal forests) received higher positive responses, 71.1% with WTP of 8245 JPY, than the gray landscape (seawalls only) with WTP of −3358 JPY, as estimated by the ML model. These contradictions and heterogeneities in people’s preferences may foreshadow the difficulties of applying hybrid approaches; hence developing synthesized both stated preference and other revealed preference methods is indispensable for providing strategic design of gray-green combined coastal defense and bolstering coastal realignment.

Abstract The NPO Takurou (Chief Director : Eigai Hamada) is planning to construct museums where visitors can learn about how terrifying tsunamis are through actual water demonstrations and about measures to prevent tsunami disasters. The museums will provide actual tsunami-like water flow at a safe height so that visitors can experience the possible effects of tsunamis, such as their legs being directly exposed to rushing water and falling down into the water, so they can see how easy it would be to drown even in shallow water. The museums will also provide information (videos, photos, etc.) o

&lt;p&gt;Recent large earthquakes in Japan including the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake and the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake caused not only damage and collapse of structures due to strong ground motions, but also washout of structures due to the subsequent giant tsunami and huge landslide. It is expected that the damage and the economic loss resulting from the anticipated Nankai Trough earthquake would be larger than those resulting from these two recent large earthquakes. Although the quantifications of risk and resilience associated with damage to structures and civil infrastructure systems u

Abstract:
A 3D mass evacuation simulation using precise kinematic digital human (KDH) models and an experimental study are discussed. The tidal wave associated with the large tsunami caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake was responsible for more than 90% of the disaster casualties. Unfortunately, it is expected that other huge tsunamis could occur in Japan coastal areas if an earthquake with magnitude greater than 8 occurred along the Nankai Trough. Therefore, recent disaster prevention plans should include evacuation to higher buildings, elevated ground, and construction of tsunami evacuation tower

Abstract In recent years, many disasters due to earthquakes and tsunamis occurred in various countries, including Japan. Two triple junctions exist below the Japanese archipelago and around Japan, where three plates meet to form a complicated crustal structure. To conduct research on the Tohoku earthquake, which accompanied the tsunami that devastated northern Japan in March 2011, Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) constructed the scientific deep-sea drilling vessel Chikyu. To understand the mechanism of the earthquakes, a direct access to the fault zone is necessar

Abstract:
The Great East Japan Earthquake in Japan paralyzed functions of Japanese ports operated by the local governments in 2011. If an anticipated Nankai Trough Earthquake occurs, port functions may be paralyzed just as in 2011 under the current port operation system conducted by the local governments. Today, horizontal/vertical division of work has been expanded in the global economy, and thus, paralysis of Japanese port functions may result in severe damage on the global economy. Using the sacrifice model, the variation in container logistics caused by earthquakes was analyzed for the Nankai Trough

Abstract:
There is increasing concern over the possibility of the occurrence of huge Toukai, Tonankai, and Nankai earthquakes in the Nankai Trough, located in the Pacific Ocean off Japan. It is estimated that there is a 50% probability of a tsunami being generated by an earthquake in this area over the next 30 years. A tsunami attack on the coast of Japan would not only increase the sea level, but would also create strong horizontal flows in bays and ports. In particular, along the coastal area of Osaka Bay, Japan, there are numerous small ports where pleasure ships and/or fishery boats are moored. Any

Abstract When a tsunami attacks a coastal area, vessels moored at the wharf suffer serious damage. In fact, more than 20,000 vessels have been damaged, such as landing on a wharf, drifting, or colliding due to the tsunami caused by the Tohoku earthquake in 2011. Tsunamis are significant disasters in Japan. Many researchers have studied the prediction of tsunami damages and the tsunami damage protection measures. However, there are various approaches for studying tsunami damage prediction and tsunami protection measures for each researcher. This means that the tsunami damages and tsunami protec
