Many earthquakes will happen near Fukushima

The recollection of the Japanese people's earthquake and tsunami disaster in March 2011 has not yet eased, and there are further forecasts that there will be many earthquakes near the Fukushima nuclear power plant. .

The head of the research team, Professor Dapeng Zhao, Department of Geophysics at Tohoku University (Japan), said there are some disruptions around the nuclear power plant area and that result indicates that the phenomenon is similar. Self-assessment of earthquakes occurred in both Iwaki and Fukushima Daiichi areas.

"There will probably be a strong earthquake similar to the earthquake in March last year in Fukushima," said Professor Dapeng Zhao. According to Mr. Zhao, the method of geological analysis and survey The area around the Fukushima nuclear power plant shows that, above the surface of the earth's surface and above the Manti (between the earth's crust and the earth's core) there are seismic waves.

Worth mentioning, the seismic waves that lie on the surface of the Earth's surface are raising concerns about future earthquakes near the Fukushima nuclear power plant.

Last year's earthquake and tsunami destroyed the Fukushima nuclear power plant, and had serious consequences for the environment of residents living around the factory area.

In addition, the authors of the study published in Solid Earth warn that Fukushima nuclear power plant must be strengthened to cope with objective risks in the future.

Japanese geophysicists are currently studying seismic waves and will reveal this report in Solid Earth.
