Abstract

Observation of outcrops of the Sendai and its southern area indicates that the Aoba Eastern Fault, the N-S trending left rateral strike-slip fault, is a northern extension of the Futaba Fault south of the Abukuma River. The Aoba Eastern Fault, the NE-SW trending Tsubonuma and Nagamachi-Rifu Faults (thrusts), and the N-S trending Hisanohama-Iwanuma Monocline affect the terrace deposits and the Medeshima Tuff, and have been activated under Quaternary compressional stress field. The Aoba Eastern Fault disruptes the Nagamachi-Rifu and Tsubonuma Faults, which are not continuous each other.
