富士山降灰 広域予報 気象庁 噴火備え 数年内に 予想量を ３段階で明示
Mt.Fuji is now regarded to be a dormant volcano, which doesn't mean it would not erupt again in the future. On the contrary, there have recently been growing concerns that there might be a huge scale eruption from the mountain. Given such conditions, Japan Meteorological Agency decided to make clear its prediction for volcanic ash fall, which is expected to spread to wide areas and last long. Some estimate says there will be the ash would fall to the ground as high as 30 centimeters at the most in some places, causing a tremendous damage like the collapse of houses and disruption of traffic networks. Therefore, the agency's prediction would help start disaster-prevention measures sooner than before in many municipalities. Starting in the next fiscal year, the agency will begin developing the new prediction system and start its new prediction system in several years. The agency says the prediction will be provided with the three stages in accordance with the seriousness.
富士山は現在休火山となっていますが、将来噴火しないというわけではありません。反対に、いつか噴火が起こるのではないかという懸念が増しています。そうした状況下で気象庁では降灰の広域予報を出す方針を固めました。最大３０センチメートルの火山灰の堆積もあり得て、家屋の倒壊や交通の寸断などの甚大な被害が予想されますので、迅速な対応が求められます。来年度がら予測システムの開発に着手して、数年後を目途に開始したいとのことである。
