Abstract

Earthquake is one of the main disasters in Japan. But many people seem to be interested only in earthquake hazard mitigation and preparedness on the Great Hanshin-Awaji (Kobe) Earthquake. Although the researches on such mitigation are in progress, there is still lack in research as well as in strategy against the possible hazard due to earthquake during snow periods.<BR>Niigata Prefecture also experienced various fault irrespective sized earthquakes during the snow seasons in the past, which did huge devastation. Nagaoka Earthquake (1961), Niigata Ken Nanseibu Earthquake (1992), Niigata Ken Hokubu Earthquake (1995) and Niigata Ken Chubu Earthquake (1999) are typical examples.<BR>Present study focuses on the hazard mitigation approach against the earthquake disaster during snow season. The hazard situation is mainly analyzed through the survey results based on the inhabitant's concept on the administered questionnaires.
