Study area off Shimokita (NE Japan).

The location of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake epicenter is pictured in the upper map by a violet star. Both middle and lower figures show the local area and bathymetry of the four stations relative to the shoreline. In the middle figure, colored dots represent the tsunami wave height above marine sea level along the Shimokita coast47. Maps are drawn by The Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) at JAMSTEC with bathymetry data from NOAA/NGDC and Japan Oceanographic Data Center (JODC). The topographic profile are drawn by KaleidaGraph with bathymetry data recorded during our cruise.
