Accretionary prism deformation and fluid migration caused by slow earthquakes in the Nankai subduction zone [PDF]
Slow earthquakes induce structural deformation around their source regions and can also be linked to fluid migrations. Both of these phenomena potentially induce temporal variations in the seismic structure; how these two factors behave for a slow ...

Ocean drilling in the Nankai Trough forearc suggests a new scenario for the evolution of the Nankai subduction zone. Continuous subduction since the Late Cretaceous has been a common tectonic scenario, although the plate subduction was transferred from ...

In the marginal regions along subduction zones, oceanic plates subducting beneath continental plates produce the largest number of earthquakes on Earth and sometimes devastating tsunamis.

Analogue model experiments on the formation of accretionary prism
スケールアナログモデル実験(以下モデル実験と略)は,地質構造の形態やその形成過程を検討するための優れた手法である.自然現象である地質構造形成過程を縮小して,それと物理学的に等価な現象を実験室で再現するためには,相似律と呼ばれる理論に基づいてサイズや物性を変更する必要がある.上部地殻の岩石変形挙動を脆性破壊で近似した場合,相似律によると実験材料を乾燥粒状体(砂やガラスビーズなど)にする必要がある.今回のミニスクールでは,実験理論である相似律と実験材料の物性に関して概略を説明した後,実際に乾燥砂を使ったモデル実験を行って,モデル化した付加体形成過程を観察する.

TSUNAMIGENIC SOURCE MECHANISM AND EFFICIENCY OF THE MARCH 11, 2011 SANRIKU EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN [PDF]
The great Tohoku earthquake of March 11, 2011 generated a very destructive and anomalously high tsunami. To understand its source mechanism, an examination was undertaken of the seismotectonics of the region and of the earthquake’ focal mechanism, energy
