The Volcanic Eruption Prediction Lab conducts multi-parameter observations of seismicity, ground deformation, video imagery, volcanic ash, and gas at volcanoes in southern Kyushu, including Sakurajima. The lab conducts research on long-term assessment of volcanic activity, quantification of eruptions, short-term forecasting immediately before eruptions, and the prediction and real-time characterization of volcanic ash dispersal and deposition.

The Crustal Fluid Lab focuses on water in the crust and uses geophysical methods such as geoelectromagnetism and seismology to clarify the distribution of fluids from the subducting plate to the shallow crust. Building on an understanding of the settings where volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur, the lab studies the relationship between the two and evaluates the potential for volcanic eruptions.

The Large-Scale Eruption Lab analyzes observational data on earthquakes and ground deformation to gather scientific knowledge about giant caldera eruptions, such as the movement of magma at depth and the processes by which it migrates and is supplied to shallow levels. Based on this, the lab conducts research on long-term forecasting of the occurrence of large-scale eruptions.

The Slope Conservation Lab aims to clarify the mechanisms by which slope failures, landslides, and debris flows occur, and to contribute to a safer society. Based on the results of disaster-site surveys and field observations, the lab conducts model experiments, numerical experiments, and terrain data analysis. It seeks to clarify the mechanisms of sediment movement caused by the interaction between hydrological processes and topographic change. The lab also conducts research on forecasting and predicting disasters in advance and reducing the damage they cause.

Koichi Hayashi, Professor

The lab studies slope disasters, which have become increasingly compound and severe in recent years, and conducts research on "Misaigaku" (pre-disaster science), a new concept originating in Japan that contributes to disaster prediction and better disaster-prevention literacy. The lab develops methods for evaluating slope information and for putting it to practical use in society by disseminating pre-disaster information.

Gonghui Wang, Professor

The lab investigates the actual state of landslide phenomena, and conducts research to clarify their mechanisms and reduce the damage they cause. Recently, the lab has expanded its research into urban areas, studying earthquake-induced landslides on embankment slopes in residential land, and compiling histories of landslide disasters based on archaeological and historical records.

Shintaro Yamasaki, Associate Professor

Based at the Tokushima Landslide Observatory in the central part of the Shikoku Mountains, the lab clarifies the actual state of landslides through surveys and monitoring, and develops a variety of measurement technologies. In recent years, the lab has also been conducting research on the large-scale slope disasters expected in the next Nankai Trough megathrust earthquake.
