Monitoring Suspended Particle Matter Using GOCI Satellite Data After the Tohoku (Japan) Tsunami in 2011

Abstract: The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster that occurred on March 11, 2011 was caused by the Tohoku tsunami which was itself triggered by the devastating 9.0Mw moment magnitude earthquake. The present study investigates spatial and temporal changes of Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) content in the NorthEastern part of Japan (Pacific Ocean) using a geostationary ocean color sensor. The Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI), which is centered on the Korean peninsula but could also observe the Japanese area, is … Show more

“…These results suggest that the virus−bacteria dynamics were disturbed by viral scavenging due to resuspended sediments and other particles discharged from the catchment to the bay. Given that the tsunami extensively caused high turbidity along the coast of the damaged area (Ikehara et al 2014, Minghelli et al 2019, the disturbance of virus−bacteria dynamics was likely widespread and exerted far-reaching im pacts on the functioning of the coastal ecosystem. One possibility is the suppression of nutrient regeneration driven by viruses (Wilhelm & Suttle 1999, Shelford et al 2012, which may lead to a reduction in primary production supported by the regenerated nitrogen (Shiozaki et al 2020).…”

“…This initial sedimentation event was followed by repeated generation of turbidity currents by aftershocks, which appeared to last over several weeks to months (Ikehara et al 2014). Therefore, the high turbidity condition that Fukuda et al (2015) observed 2−5 mo after the tsunami is likely a consequence of sediment resuspension caused by the aftershocks as well as prolonged riverine and atmospheric inputs of particles originating from the tsunami-derived debris and exposed soils and sediments, depending on meteorological conditions (Minghelli et al 2019). The inputs were probably enhanced by high-intensity reconstruction activities, including the tsunamidebris removal, land elevation, and the construction of sea walls and roads.…”

“…Hence, satellite ocean-color remote-sensing data provides a unique approach to improve the understanding of the ecosystem dynamics and the development of the ecological modelling [6][7][8] . Then many international scholars have applied remote sensing data to study the ecological environmental parameters, for example, chlorophyll-a [9][10][11] , SPM 12 , CDOM 13 , etc. In this paper, we used the MODIS data and Quickscat wind data from 2003 to 2009 to analysed the spatial and temporal distribution of Bohai Sea.…”

“…After the cataclysm, the scientific community was mobilized to evaluate the impact of the tsunami and the nuclear accident on the environment and the health of the population. The AMORAD (Amélioration des modèles de prévision de la dispersion et d'évaluation de l'impact des radionucléides au sein de l'environnement) project, led by the French institute IRSN (Institut de Radioprotection et de Sureté Nucléaire), aims at improving radionuclide dispersion modeling and assessment of its environmental impact on both the marine and terrestrial environment [35]. Another goal of the AMORAD project is to monitor the evolution of the shoreline after the tsunami.…”
