How large peak ground acceleration by large earthquakes could generate turbidity currents along the slope of northern Japan Trench

Abstract Deep-sea turbidite has been used to determine the history of occurrence of large earthquakes. Surface-sediment remobilization is a mechanism of the generation of earthquake-induced turbidity currents. However, the detailed mechanism of surface-sediment remobilization caused by earthquake gr...
