摘要

Just after 2:30 pm on May 5, 2023, a magnitude 6.5 earthquake occurred in the Noto region of Ishikawa Prefecture. Tremors with a seismic intensity of 6+ were observed in Suzu City, Ishikawa Prefecture. As a result of this earthquake, a 10 cm tsunami was observed at Wajima Port. Landslides such as rockfalls have also occurred on the Noto Peninsula, and the presence of unstable rock masses on the slopes raised the possibility of new rockfalls. Then, just after 4 p.m. on January 1, 2024, a large earthquake with a magnitude of 7.6 occurred. In Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture, tremors with a seismic intensity of 7 were observed, causing severe damage. The earthquake also caused a tsunami of more than 4 m in height, causing damage. In this paper, the damage caused by the Noto Peninsula Earthquake are reported in detail and the effects of protective measures and future protective facilities are discussed.
