About Kochi Prefecture
Overview of Kochi Prefecture
Kochi Prefecture is one of the prefectures of Japan that occupies the southern half of Shikoku, which is the fourth largest island among the four major islands that make up Japan.
It is located at 133 ° east longitude and 33 ° north latitude. Since mountains with an altitude of 1,000 m or more are connected to the vicinity of the coast, the plains are only scattered in the lower reaches of the river, and about 84% of the area is mountainous.
While blessed with abundant nature, sea, mountains and rivers in each season, there are many natural phenomena and daily life.
Terrestrial phenomenon of Kochi prefecture
There is a Nankai Trough off the coast of Kochi Prefecture at a depth of 4000 m, which causes a huge earthquake with a magnitude of over 8 in a cycle of about 100 years.
The earthquake along the Nankai Trough caused not only a big tremor but also a big tsunami, which hit Kochi many times.
Meteorological condition of Kochi prefecture
Kochi Prefecture faces the Pacific Ocean, where the warm Kuroshio current flows in the south, and is surrounded by the Shikoku Mountains at an altitude of 1,500 to 2,000 m in the north. Due to these topographical conditions, it has become a perfect place to accept humid oceanic air currents, and the annual rainfall exceeds 2,000 mm in the entire prefecture, and in some areas it exceeds 4,000 mm, making it one of the most rainy areas in Japan and the world. In particular, typhoons have landed the second highest number of landings in all prefectures nationwide since the start of observation in Japan, and can be said to be a regular area every year. On the other hand, the annual sunshine hours are also ranked high among all prefectures in Japan every year, and it can be said that it is characterized by heavy rain, fine weather, and a clear weather environment.
Major Disasters in the History
Showa Nankai Earthquake

Off the coast of Kochi Prefecture, trench earthquakes occur with a cycle of about 100 years. Most recently, it occurred
on
December 21, 1946 at 4:19 am. The magnitude of the earthquake was 8.0, and a tsunami of 4m to 6m rushed to the coast of
Kochi prefecture.
679 people were casualty, 1,836 people were injured, and 4,846 homes were completely destroyed or washed away due to the
great shaking and tsunami caused by this earthquake.
In addition, this earthquake caused subsidence mainly in the central part of the prefecture and the prefecture capital
City
of Kochi, submerged area by tsunami ware not drainaged long duration, and long-term inundation also occurred.
The disaster in second straight year 1975 and 1976
The typhoons that struck in 1975 and 1976 for two consecutive years caused the greatest damage to Kochi in recent years. The typhoon of 1975 recorded 700 mm of precipitation in one day, causing sediment-related disasters and flooding of rivers in the prefecture. There were 77 casualty.
The typhoon of 1976 caused rain of 1305 mm in five days until the typhoon passed, causing flood damage over a wide area of Kochi City, the prefecture's capital. This typhoon caused damage not only in Kochi but also in a wide area of Japan.
Torrential Rains in 1998
In September 1998, strong rain occurred mainly in the central part of the prefecture. At the observation points in the prefecture, a maximum of 943 mm of rain was recorded for 24 hours.
The heavy rain caused enormous damage, including number of houses 25 completely destroyed and 8,341 flooded above floor level.
In the downtown area of Kochi City, it rained as much as 124 mm in an hour, and the city was covered with water in an instant.

A Disaster will able to be a Phenomenon
A Disaster will able to be a Phenomenon
Build Back Better
Every time a storm or flood damage occurred, the national government, prefectures, and municipalities have cooperated to carry out restoration and reconstruction projects to prevent disasters again.
Kochi City has excellent ability to cope with heavy rain, and has one of the best drainage capacity in Japan at 77 mm / hour. Even if heavy rains occur at the level that caused a major disaster in the past, the same "disaster" will not occur in Kochi.
Residual risk to be infinitesimally zero
Certainly there are hazards that cannot be prevented. Trench-type earthquakes that occur in a cycle of about 100 years generate huge tsunamis with large tremors. In 2012, the Japanese Cabinet Office announced damage estimates for the largest possible Nankai Trough earthquake in the future. Kochi will be hit by the tsunami of 34.4m, the highest in Japan. It hits the entire coast and not only floods the center of the prefecture. In response to this announcement, the estimated number of fatalities is 42,000. This huge tsunami cannot be completely prevented. However, be able to challenge reduce the residual risks, can be save lives.
Kochi has accelerated and strengthened countermeasures against huge earthquakes. In all areas where inundation is expected, "evacuation facilities" were constructed at intervals that take into account the arrival time of the tsunami and the time that people can escape. The number of tsunami evacuation towers constructed was 114, and the number of evacuation routes leading to the hills was 1,445. Not only that, all measures have been taken across all sector and departments, and 282 action plans have been implemented.
As a result of these all-out measures against residual risk, the number of deaths currently expected has been reduced by 74% the first estimation by cabinet office in 2012 to 11,000. But it's not zero yet. Kochi's efforts continue today.
