传感器，安装在密集海底地震和海啸网络系统（DONET）站使用遥控潜水器，埋在海底。圆柱形容器是耐压的，并容纳地震仪。贷项：JAMSTEC在过去的一千年里，破坏性的巨型逆冲断层地震，有时伴随着巨大的海啸，在日本西南部的南海海槽沿着反复发生[例如，Ando，1975]。为了帮助我们为今后的此类地震做好准备，我们建立了海洋观测网络，以监测这一地区的地震构造活动。
Sensors, installed at a Dense Oceanfloor Network System for Earthquakes and Tsunamis (DONET) station using a remotely operated vehicle, buried in the seafloor. The cylindrical vessel is pressure resistant and houses seismometers. Credit: JAMSTECFor the past thousand years, devastating megathrust earthquakes, sometimes accompanied by huge tsunamis, have occurred repeatedly along the Nankai trough off southwestern Japan [eg, Ando, 1975]. To help us prepare for such earthquakes in the future, we have developed oceanic observation networks to monitor seismotectonic activities in this region.
