Icehouse of the Japan Fisheries Cooperatives at Taro Fishing Port which was severely damaged by the 2011 tsunami
Caption as given in the above cited source: "Figure 17 - Icehouse of the Japan Fisheries Cooperatives at Taro Fishing Port, which was severely damaged by the 2011 tsunami (14.8 m; I72). The two white markers on the back cliff show the heights of the 1896 (14.6 m; Iki 1897) and 1933 (10 m; Earthquake Research Institute 1934) Sanriku tsunamis. The tsunami height of 10 m for the 1933 tsunami was measured at a slightly different location; the tsunami heights at this location measured by Earthquake Research Institute (1934) and Matsuo (1933) were 7.0 and 6.4 m, respectively"
Context as given in the above cited source: "At Taro in Miyako City, the 2011 tsunami was larger than the 1933 tsunami, but it is unclear whether it was larger than the 1896 tsunami. Tsunami heights from the 2011 event ranged from 12 to 19 m (I69–I73). The 1896 heights were reported as being 110 shaku (33 m; Yamana 1896) or 48 feet (15 m; Iki 1897), while the heights from the 1933 tsunami ranged from 4 to 10 m. The damage to an icehouse of the Japan Fisheries Cooperatives indicates that the 2011 inundation tsunami height was 15 m (I72). On the back cliff behind the icehouse, two white markers indicate the heights of the 1896 (15 m; Iki 1897) and 1933 (10 m; Earthquake Research Institute 1934) Sanriku tsunamis (Fig. 17). These show that the 2011 tsunami was larger than the 1933 tsunami, but similar to the 1896 tsunami. According to Yamashita (2003), 1,867 of 2,248 residents in the affected area were killed by the 1896 tsunami (fatality rate 83 %), and 911 among 2,773 residents died during the 1933 tsunami (fatality rate 32 %). The 2011 tsunami killed ~200 of 4,434 (fatality rate ~5 %). The 1960 tsunami heights were 2–3 m as reported by CFI (1961), and 2 m as reported by JMA (1961), and the coastal levee completely protected the residential area from the 1960 and 2010 Chilean tsunamis."- Dieses Werk darf von dir
