Abstract

<p>We examined 14C dating and correlation of exotic tephra for newly obtained samples in the eastern foot of Fuji Volcano. Wood samples in the Gotenba Debris Avalanche Deposit (OYM201 and OYM201b) yielded ages of 2,490 ± 20 BP and 2,510 ± 20 BP, respectively, black soil immediately below the S-13 Pyroclastic Deposit (OYM202) were 2,860 ± 30 BP, black soil at the base of the Fuji Black Soil Layer (OYM203) yielded 8,520 ± 30 BP, and a wood chip in Mabusegawa Debris Avalanche Deposit (OYM205) were dated as 16,270 ± 50 BP. Felsic glass shards in the soil layer above the Mabusegawa Debris Avalanche Deposit were correlated with the Tachikawa Upper Glassy Ash. Based on the results, the Gotenba Debris Avalanche occured around 800 cal BC, and the Mabusegawa Debris Avalanche took place around 18,000 cal BC.</p>
