The Japanese government will proceed with a literature survey on the feasibility of constructing a final disposal facility for highly radioactive waste on Minamitorishima, a remote island in the Ogasawara Islands chain. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/04/22/japan/n-waste-site-survey-minamitorishima/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #minamitorishima #ogasawaraislands #tokyo #nuclearenergy #nuclearwaste #localgovernment

The Ogasawara village office said Wednesday that Mayor Masaaki Shibuya will later this month tell residents how he will respond to a government request to survey Minamitorishima as a possible nuclear waste repository. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/04/02/japan/ogasawara-mayor-stance-nuclear-waste/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #minamitorishima #nuclearwaste #nuclearenergy #ogasawaraislands #environment #worldheritage

The government met with residents of Chichijima, an island in the Ogasawara chain, to explain the possibility of using another island in the chain as a disposal site for highly radioactive waste. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/03/15/japan/nuclear-waste-meeting-minamitorishima/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #minamitorishima #nuclearwaste #nuclearenergy #ogasawaraislands

Japan's continental shelf expanded in July by 120,000 square kilometers with the addition of an area in Pacific waters east of Chichijima, part of the Ogasawara island chain. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/10/27/japan/continental-shelf-expansion/ #japan #continentalshelf #land #ogasawaraislands

"The St. George's Cross Medusa apparently lives only in the #Sumisu Caldera in #OgasawaraIslands, some 460 km south of #Tokyo. This is a hydrothermally active #DeepSea volcanic structure with a depth of 812 m."

A recent undersea volcanic eruption has led to the formation of a new isle off the coast of Iwo Jima, about 1,200 kilometers south of Tokyo, Japanese researchers have said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/11/07/japan/science-health/iwo-jima-volcano-new-isle/?utm_content=buffer6b54f&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #japan #sciencehealth #ogasawaraislands #volcanoes #universityoftokyo #iwojima #setsuyanakada
