One month and a week has passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. IISEE as well as BRI staffs are involving investigation of devastated disaster from the view point of seismology and earthquake engineering. The results of investigation will be summarized within this month (first report in Japanese) and will be opened on the website of BRI. For the moment, IISEE put information on the analysis of tsunami and strong motion as below;
