In our previous report (Jour. Seis. Soc. Japan, 2nd Series, Vol. 2, No. 2 (1949), it was stated that the area of aftershock region (
Akm
2) and the radius of sensibility circle (
Rkm) of several earthquakes in Japan were closely related with each other. Recently, we were able to collect more examples (cf. Table 1 and Figs. 1-9) and investigated these data together with those already reported.
From 12 land shocks and 9 oceanic shocks, we obtained the following relations:
log
10A=(1.50±0.07)+(3.16±0.10)
R×10
-3 for land shock,
log
10A=(2.13±0.10)+(2.86±0.13)
R×10
-3 for oceanick shock, which well support our previous results. (cf. Fig. 10.)
If the radius
R of the Great Kwanto Earthquake of September 1st, 1923 be assumed as 700km, instead of 900km., the former formula becomes
log
10A=(0.87±0.13)+(4.67±0.19)
R×10
-3According to Prof. H. Kawasumi the latter relation is more preferable.
