The Fuchuan Ophiolite in South China: Evidence for Modern‐Style Plate Tectonics During Rodinia Breakup

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Subduction initiation processes, such as those evidenced in the Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana (IBM) forearc crust are a key feature of modern‐style plate tectonics.

3D Subduction Interface Model for the Hikurangi Margin, New Zealand: Implications for Slow Slip Events

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract We present a new 3D Hikurangi subduction interface model by using an implicit modeling approach that integrates seismic‐reflection profiles, relocated hypocenters, focal mechanism orientations, and tomographic interpretations. The model reveals along‐strike transitions in slow slip events (SSEs) that correlate with subduction interface ...

Subduction of Submarine Arc Volcanoes Beneath the Solomon Islands Arc

Geosciences, 2023
In the Solomon Islands, arc magmas are erupting on the subducting Australia Plate. These island (Simbo) and submarine arc volcanoes (Kana Keoki, Coleman and Pavuvu) are about to be recycled by rapid subduction.

Sedimentology and geochemistry of the recent sediments of the river system on Hurd Peninsula, Livingston Island, Antarctica

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 4, September 2026.
This study investigates the sedimentology and geochemistry of recent sediments from ephemeral river systems on Hurd Peninsula, Livingston Island, Antarctica. These systems are important for understanding sedimentary and geochemical processes in unique polar environments.

Cracked on-axis and pristine off-axis crust formed during forearc evolution at a nascent subduction zone

Communications Earth & Environment
Forearc crust that formed at nascent subduction zones contains key evidence regarding Earth’s tectonic evolution, but its nature and underlying formation processes remain unclear.

Basin-wide erosion and segmentation of the Plio-Pleistocene forearc basin in central Japan revealed by tephro- and biostratigraphy

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023
The basement of the Tokyo metropolitan area consists of the Miocene–Pleistocene forearc basin fills that are well exposed around Tokyo Bay, especially on the Miura and Boso peninsulas.

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2837-2854, September 2026.
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Evolving Subduction Zone Thermal Structure Drives Extensive Forearc Mantle Wedge Hydration

AGU Advances
Hydration of the subduction zone forearc mantle wedge influences the downdip distribution of seismicity, the availability of fluids for arc magmatism, and Earth's long term water cycle.
