Japan will lift its week-old “megaquake” warning later Thursday if there is no further major seismic activity, the disaster management minister said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The alert last week prompted thousands of Japanese to cancel holidays and stock up on essentials, leading to bare shelves in some stores.<\/p>\n

“If no particular change in seismic activity or crustal deformation is observed, at 17:00 (0800 GMT) today, the government will end the special call for attention,” said Yoshifumi Matsumura, minister of state for disaster management.<\/p>\n

“The possibility of a major earthquake has not been eliminated,” he said, urging citizens to regularly check their preparedness “for the major earthquake that is expected”.<\/p>\n

Last Thursday Japan’s weather agency said the likelihood of such an event was “higher than normal” after a magnitude 7.1 jolt earlier in the day that injured 14 people.<\/p>\n

That was a particular kind of tremor called a subduction megathrust quake, which in the past have occurred in pairs and can unleash colossal tsunamis.<\/p>\n

The advisory concerned the Nankai Trough “subduction zone” between two tectonic plates in the Pacific Ocean, where massive earthquakes have hit in the past.<\/p>\n

The 800-kilometre (500-mile) undersea trough runs from Shizuoka, up the Pacific coast from the Tokyo region — the world’s biggest urban area — to the southern tip of Kyushu island.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
