O sismo de Sanriku provocou um tsunami há cento e trinta anos...

O terramoto de Sanriku de 1896 (明治三陸地震, Meiji Sanriku Jishin) foi um dos eventos sísmicos mais destrutivos da história japonesa. O terramoto, de magnitude 8,5, ocorreu às 19.32 (hora local) do dia 15 de junho de 1896, aproximadamente 166 quilómetros ao largo da costa da Prefeitura de Iwate, Honshu. Provocou duas ondas de tsunami que destruíram cerca de 9.000 casas e causaram pelo menos 22.000 mortes. As ondas atingiram então a altura recorde de 38,2 metros, superada apenas em 2 metros durante o evento de 2011.

O epicentro situava-se ao oeste da Fossa do Japão, expressão superficial da zona de subducção descendente a oeste. Essa fossa compõe o limite convergente entre as placas do Pacífico e Euroasiática.

O sismo de Sanriku provocou um tsunami há 129 anos

The 1896 Sanriku earthquake was one of the most destructive seismic events in Japanese history. The 8.5 magnitude earthquake occurred at 19:32 (local time) on June 15, 1896, approximately 166 kilometres (103 mi) off the coast of Iwate Prefecture, Honshu. It resulted in two tsunamis which destroyed about 9,000 homes and caused at least 22,000 deaths. The waves reached a then-record height of 38.2 metres (125 ft); this would remain the highest on record until waves from the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake exceeded that height by more than 2 metres (6 ft 7 in).

Seismologists have discovered the tsunami's magnitude (M_t = 8.2) was much greater than expected for the estimated seismic magnitude. This earthquake is now regarded as being part of a distinct class of seismic events, the tsunami earthquake.
