e-Asia Landslide Field Excursion in Aso, Kumamoto<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>
\nWe had a field excursion in Aso district, Kumamoto prefecture, to visit the Aso Volcano Museum and to see the current status of Aso district, which was severely suffered by the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake. Because of bad weather, visits to a large-scale landslide site at the Aso-Ohashi bridge and the Takadake monitoring site were canceled.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stop 1 Aso Volcano Museum (32\u00b053\u203208\u2033N, 131\u00b003\u203208\u2033E)<\/strong><\/span>
\nOccurrence of landslide disasters in Aso district is closely correlated with the eruptive history of the Aso Volcano. We watched a short movie and many exhibits of the eruptive history and geological and geomorphological features of the Aso Volcano. We also saw new exhibits of landslide disasters induced by the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake.<\/span>
