Current Research

I am interested in earthquakes and natural disasters occurred in the past. My current research projects are: (1) to acquire information on earthquake in the past based on descriptions written in historical materials.(2) to examine groundwater anomalies appeared before, during, and after earthquakes.(3) to promote “citizen science” approach such as “Minna de Honkoku” (https://honkoku.org/).(4) to proceed the collaboration with historians in Collaborative Research Organization for Historical Materials on Earthquakes and Volcanoes, The University of Tokyo (http://www.eri.u-tokyo.ac.jp/project/eri-hi-cro/en/index.html).(5) to extend interdisciplinary science by constructing a framework “History X Earth and Planetary Science.”
