Counts of occurrence per depth in 北海道北西沖

Counts of occurrence per depth in 北海道北西沖 (Northwest offshore Hokkaido region) is shown as below graph, 

All 3 earthquakes more than M6.0 were occurred in deeper than 230km. M4.8 is the max in 1km-60km. 

  • 1km (Red)…This count of the earthquakes is the 1st. Before M4.5 in 1965, all of 1km were "unknown details" with no data of the magnitude. The M4.5 is the largest one in this depth.
  • 10km(yellow)…The count is the 2nd. There was a longest silent term between 1919-1993. In late 2010s, the count increased with 20km rapidly, and it overtook 20km's one. It may also overtake 1km's one in near future. The the largest magnitude in this depth is M3.7 in 2024.
  • 20km(orange)…The count is the 3rd. There was a longest silent term between 1919-1968. In late 2010s, the count increased with 10km rapidly. The the largest magnitude in this depth is M4.8 in 2013.
  • 30km(light green)…The count is the 4th. There was a longest silent term between 1956-1996. The the largest magnitude in this depth is M4.6 in 2016. 
  • 40km(green)…There was only once as M4.3 in 1978.
  • 50km… No occurrence
  • 60km(blue) … There was only once in 1952. But, the magnitude is unknown.
  • Others…There are few in 240km-330km. But, all 3 earthquakes more than M6.0 were occurred in these depth as shown in the chart above.

#SP12-6 茨城県沖周辺の特異震源の解析(マクロ的解析)

  [背景] 気象庁の有感地震全データを東経北緯を0.1度単位深さを1km単位のグリッドに分けた場合、M7以上の震源、かつ段数2段目あるいは3段目以上のグリッド震源は12震源しか存在せず、12の特異震源と呼んでいる。その中の発生順で6番目の茨城県沖の震源#SP12-6に関連して、...
