Natural Disaster and Coastal Geomorphology

Editat de Shigeko Haruyama, Toshihiko Sugai
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 iul 2016
This book deals with the Tsunami intrusion in the lower plain in the Tohoku region and role played by the coastal and fluvial landforms in the damages. The land-use patterns and the recent urbanization has also been partly responsible for a risk level enhancement. The 2011 East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami has violently hit the coastal plain in the Tohoku and Kanto regions. The coastal geomorphology of these regions have played an important role in the impacts of this natural disaster. The authors introduce tectonic settings, explain and assess these different risks, and discuss future disaster prevention and mitigation planning.

This book deals with the Tsunami intrusion in the lower plain in the Tohoku region and role played by the coastal and fluvial landforms in the damages. The land-use patterns and the recent urbanization has also been partly responsible for a risk level enhancement. The 2011 East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami has violently hit the coastal plain in the Tohoku and Kanto regions. The coastal geomorphology of these regions have played an important role in the impacts of this natural disaster. The authors introduce tectonic settings, explain and assess these different risks, and discuss future disaster prevention and mitigation planning.


Caracteristici

Written by three experts in coastal risks management, specifically for the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami Compares studies about previous tsunami damages to the ones from the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami Includes geomorphologic and land use factors to the risk assessment Discusses the lessons learned from the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and discusses the disaster mitigation planning that can be drawn from these lessons Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
