Akitsune Imamura (今村 明恒, Imamura Akitsune, Kagoshima, 14 June 1870 – 1 January 1948) was a Japanese seismologist. As a University of Tokyo seismologist he represented a new generation of scientists, trained by Western experts. He who predicted the timing and magnitude of the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake 16 years in advance. In 1939, while working for the Seismological Observatory of Tokyo University, Imamura made a reconstruction of Zhang Heng's seismoscope (132 CE), considered to have been the first such device ever made.

  • Akitsune Imamura (今村 明恒, Imamura Akitsune, Kagoshima, 14 June 1870 – 1 January 1948) was a Japanese seismologist. As a University of Tokyo seismologist he represented a new generation of scientists, trained by Western experts. He who predicted the timing and magnitude of the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake 16 years in advance. Born in a poor family, he nonetheless managed to study at the Imperial University of Tokyo. In 1899, in anticipation of the later theory of plate tectonics, he argued that the tsunami that struck the Sanriku coast of Honshū island in 1896 (known as the Meiji Sanriku tsunami) had been triggered by movements of the earth's crust under the sea. In a paper written in 1905, he predicted that a major earthquake would hit the Kantō region around Tokyo within 50 years and kill over 100,000 people, and advocated that measures be taken. His worries materialized when the Great Kantō earthquake devastated Tokyo in 1923, claiming more than 100,000 victims. In 1939, while working for the Seismological Observatory of Tokyo University, Imamura made a reconstruction of Zhang Heng's seismoscope (132 CE), considered to have been the first such device ever made.

Issu d'une famille modeste, il parvient néanmoins à suivre des études à l'Université impériale de Tokyo. En 1899, anticipant la future théorie de la tectonique des plaques, il avance que le tsunami qui a frappé la du Honshū en 1896 (appelé tsunami Sanriku de Meiji) a été provoqué par des mouvements de la croûte terrestre sous la mer. Dans un article rédigé en 1905, il prédit qu'un séisme majeur frappera la région de Kantō autour de Tokyo dans moins de 50 ans et tuera plus de 100 000 personnes et demande que des mesures soient prises. Ses inquiétudes se matérialisent lorsque le séisme de 1923 de Kantō dévaste Tokyo en 1923, faisant plus de 100 000 victimes. En 1939, alors qu'il travaille pour l'observatoire sismologique de l'université de Tokyo, Imamura reconstitue le sismomètre de Zhang Heng (132 CE), considéré comme le premier instrument de la sorte jamais fabriqué.
