Structural Evolution of the Eastern Nankai Trough accretionary prism, Central Japan—Subduction of Trough-Parallel Seamount Chains

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science
The Nankai Trough, offshore of Southwest Japan, represents a plate subduction zone where a long history of devastating mega-earthquake and tsunami events has been best documented.

(Ultra)high‐Pressure Metamorphism in Sedimentary Versus Basaltic Rocks: Insights From a Variscan Mélange in the South Carpathians

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reconstructing the pressure–temperature–time (P–T–t) evolution of (ultra)high‐pressure rocks is essential for constraining subduction and collisional dynamics. Subduction zones are often investigated using basic eclogites, whereas nonbasic high‐pressure rocks remain comparatively understudied, potentially hindering a comprehensive ...

Magmatic and geotectonic significance of Santa Elena Peninsula, Costa Rica

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2006
We present a new integrated interpretation of the geochemistry and geotectonic significance of the Santa Elena Peninsula, which is divided in three units: 1) an overthrust allocthonous unit of ultramafic and mafic rocks, the Santa Elena Nappe; 2) an ...

Inverted Magma-rich Versus Magma-poor Rifted Margins: Implications for Early Orogenic Systems

open access: yesTektonika, 2023
Mountain belts are often the result of former inverted rifts or rifted margins. Up to date, relics of magma-poor rifted margins have been found in orogens allowing the investigation of how these margins reactivate and control the formation of mountain ...

Evaluating the state of constructed infills in the Venice Lagoon through remote satellite imagery

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Salt‐marsh restoration is used to counter wetland loss, strengthen ecosystem resilience, and support dredged‐sediment reuse. In the Venice Lagoon, 63 constructed infills have been realized since the late 1980s, yet their eco‐geomorphological development and restoration performance remain incompletely assessed. Objectives The study

Bathymetric Signatures of Submarine Forearc Deformation: A Case Study in the Nankai Accretionary Prism

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Large earthquakes and tsunamis in subduction zone forearcs occur via slip on the shallow plate boundary and upper plate faults, but the locations, geometries, and slip histories of these faults can be difficult to constrain in regions with minimal ...

Geochemistry of volcanic rocks and dykes from the Remeshk-Mokhtarabad and Fannuj-Maskutan Ophiolites (Makran Accretionary Prism, SE Iran): New constraints for magma generation in the Middle East neo-Tethys

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment, 2023
The Remeshk-Mokhtarabad and Fannuj-Maskutan ophiolites represent two major ophiolitic units in the North Makran Domain (Makran Accretionary Prism).

Resistance training load does not determine resistance training‐induced hypertrophy across upper and lower limbs in healthy young males

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In healthy young males, we found that skeletal muscle hypertrophy following a period of resistance exercise training (RET) was consistent within and between subjects, as assessed using a variety of established methods. The skeletal muscle hypertrophic response was independent of external load.

Musculoskeletal and physiological responses to vortex wave stimulation in older adults

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We explored the acute physiological effects of a novel mechanical stimulus, vortex wave stimulation (VWS), in healthy older adults. Using deuterated water and serial skeletal muscle biopsies, we showed that VWS elevated integrated rates of myofibrillar, but not sarcoplasmic muscle protein synthesis, with no changes observed in ...

Alteration and dehydration of subducting oceanic crust within subduction zones: implications for décollement step-down and plate-boundary seismogenesis

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2017
The alteration and dehydration of predominantly basaltic subducting oceanic crustal material are thought to be important controls on the mechanical and hydrological properties of the seismogenic plate interface below accretionary prisms.
