The values of m and log k in Ishimoto -Iida's statistical formula are derived for each component of the maximum displacement amplitude observed at many stations of the network of Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA). The relation between magnitude and the maximum displacement amplitude also is obtained from the same data. A distribution map of expected maximum displacement amplitude for the earthquake recurrence period of 25,50 and 100 years is made based on the derived values of m and log k. The map indicates quantitatively the regional distribution of earthquake danger in and around Japan. It is seen from this map that the general level of the earthquake danger varies throughout Japan. This variation is found to reflect well the pattern of seismic activity throughout the area. The earthquake danger increases along the Pacific side of Hokkaido, Tohoku and Kanto districts and decreases in the southwestern and inland areas of Japan. Small variations are also recognized, which might suggest that the earthquake danger and the maximum amplitude are affected by local geological and subsoil effects. ƒL[ƒ[ƒhi‰pjF - ‹LŽ–‹æ•ªF - ‹æ•ª @@@ˆÏˆõ‰ï˜_•¶W
