The 2011 Nagano earthquake (Japanese: 長野県北部地震) was an earthquake that occurred near the prefectural border between Niigata and Nagano prefectures at 3:59 (JST) on March 12, 2011. The depth of the hypocenter was 8 km and the magnitude of the earthquake was M6.7 (JMA) .[1][2]

It was Sakae, Nagano that had the strongest shaking, It had a maximum JMA intensity of Shindo 6+. Therefore, the damage caused by the earthquake was concentrated in Sakae, so the earthquake is also called the Sakae earthquake (栄村大震災) .[3][4] The quake killed three people.[5]

Relationship with the Tohoku earthquake[]

Nagano earthquake occurred only about 13 hours after the Great East Japan Earthquake (Tohoku earthquake) .[6][7] Therefore, it is believed that the Nagano earthquake was a remotely triggered earthquake by the Great East Japan Earthquake.[8][9]

Since this earthquake occurred immediately after the Tohoku earthquake that caused unprecedented damage, the frequency of coverage by mass media of the Nagano earthquake was less than that of the Tohoku earthquake.[10]

A M6.0 earthquake occurred in Shizuoka on March 15, 2011,[11] which is also considered to be an induced earthquake of the Tohoku earthquake.[9]
