Geomagnetic anomaly analysis on the seamounts, Daiiti-Kasima and Katori, off Kashima-nada around the southern part of Japan Trench.
As a part of “Basic Sea Map" project,and partly of the “Earthquake PredictionPlan" the detailed geomagnetic, hydrographic, geological, and gravitational survey, was carried out by the Hydrographic Department, Maritime Safety Agency of Japan, at sea in the southern part of Japan Trench from...
