LOCATION

This station and its surroundings

JISHINDESU links this station to Kagoshima. We have no confirmed municipality link, so we do not assign it to a local history page.

One station's Shindo reading does not describe shaking across a whole municipality or prefecture. Area pages combine records from stations associated with that area.

How to read these observations

Shindo describes shaking at the measurement point. Magnitude describes the size of the whole earthquake. Nearby stations can record different Shindo values for the same event, and a station reading is not an exact measurement at your home.
