Here we present the first radiometric age and geochemical (major and trace element and isotope) data for samples from the Hydrographer Ridge, a back arc volcano of the Kurile Island Arc, and a newly discovered chain of volcanoes (“Sonne Volcanoes”) on ...

Inhomogeneous structure of magnetic layer of the Kuril Island Arc
An innovative technology of anomalous magnetic field inversion was applied to construct 2D models of the magnetic layer using three profiles crossing the southern, central and northern parts of the Kuril Island Arc.

Provenance history of a Late Triassic-Jurassic Gondwana margin forearc basin, Murihiku Terrane, North Island, New Zealand: petrographic and geochemical constraints [PDF]
The Murihiku Terrane in the North Island was a forearc basin adjacent to a volcanic arc along the eastern margin of Gondwana during the Mesozoic. The rocks that infill the basin are mainly volcaniclastic sandstones and mudstones, often turbiditic, with ...

The Ryukyu (Nansei-Shoto) island arc-trench system, southwest of Japan, is formed by the subduction of the Philippine Sea (PHS) plate. Among the subduction zones surrounding the Japan Islands, the Ryukyu arc-trench system is unique in that its backarc ...

Persistent elastic behavior above a megathrust rupture patch: Nias island, West Sumatra [PDF]
We quantify fore-arc deformation using fossil reefs to test the assumption commonly made in seismic cycle models that anelastic deformation of the fore arc is negligible.

Crustal development in relation to granitic magmatism in regard to D/H partition between coexisting hornblende and biotite in the Svecofennian belt [PDF]
Tie-lines in the σD-XFe diagram of hornblende and biotite in Japanese island arc granites give commonly a similar slope to that derived from the equation of Suzuoki-Epstein's experimental work (1976).

Geology of the d'Entrecasteaux - New Hebrides arc collision zone : results from a deep submersible survey [PDF]
International audienceDuring the SuBPSOl cruise, seven submersible dives were conducted between water depths of 5350 and 900 m over the collision zone between the New Hebrides island arc and the d'Entrecasteaux Zone (DEZ).

Continental arcs have an episodic magmatic activity over long-time periods, which is believed to modulate long-term climate. Island arcs have also the potential to release large amount of CO2 into the atmosphere, but whether they display an episodic ...
