Abstract
Slush avalanche is one of the natural disasters of Mt. Fuji, causing severe damages in the mountain area every several years. A seismic network has been developed since 1990s for the eruption prediction research of Mt. Fuji, and the ability of seismic signal detection has been greatly improved especially for recent five years. The seismic network has detected several slush avalanches, providing useful information about the time and duration of them for us. We show here that the seismic network is potentially a useful tool for monitoring slush avalanches.
