Last month's earthquake

This screen shows the earthquakes that have occurred in Japan and around the world within the last month. We look at It shows the 3D hypocenter distributions from different viewpoints, in which the earthquakes are plotted with different colors and symbol sizes according to their depths and magnitudes. The hypocenter distribution for the earthquakes in Japan and the surrounding areas clearly shows the seismic activities along the Pacific Plate and the Philippine Sea Plate subducting to beneath the Japanese islands. As for the earthquakes around the world, we can see that the seismic activity is high along the Pacific Rim.
Two earthquakes with seismic intensity 7 earthquakes occurred in Kumamoto in April, 2016 resulting in severe damages. In order to closely examine the seismic activities in the region where the Kumamoto Earthquake took place, we have in addition magnified and plotted the earthquakes that have occurred in Kyushu since 1 April, together with the distribution of active faults throughout the region.We have thus temporarily added a close-up plot of the earthquakes that have occurred in Kyushu since 1 April, together with the active faults. After In research, after viewing a temporal variation of the epicenter distribution, we look at the hypocenter distribution in 3D from different viewpoints.
