Risk Evaluation and Disaster Mitigation Research Division
Inland Earthquake and Volcano Lab
Research Subject(s)
Electromagnetic induction in the earth and planets, geomagnetism, and analyzing and observation methodology of the induction and geomagnetism. As a role of the volcanic hazard research, we are monitoring total magnetic intensity near active volcanic craters and fumaroles to reveal demagnetization and remagnetization, which contributes intermediate to long-term prediction of volcanic eruptions.
Key Words
