The JMA has also issued Nankai Trough Earthquake Extra Information as part of its ongoing assessment of the seismic situation. This alert is intended to evaluate the likelihood of a subsequent megaquake in the Nankai Trough region, which has historically been prone to large-scale seismic events. The agency is closely monitoring the situation and analyzing data to determine any potential connections between the recent earthquake and the seismic activity in the Nankai Trough.
