New Terrestrial Native Iron Discovered on Earth's Surface
Abstract Native iron is a major common mineral in lunar samples and meteorites but rarely occurs on Earth's surface, as its stability requires highly reducing conditions with very low oxygen fugacity. To date, native iron has mainly been found in basalts, ophiolites, and deep hydrothermal systems.

Arc Heat Flow and Magmatic Heat Budgets
Abstract We evaluate hydrothermal heat loss from 11 volcanic‐arc segments (∼6,000 km of arc length, ∼10% of the global total), motivated by the observation that much magmatic heat ultimately crosses the land surface as heated aqueous fluid. Heat loss takes place by volcanic eruption, geothermal heat conduction to the surface, fumarolic (vapor ...

ABSTRACT Aims To evaluate how equilibrium (ETIB) and niche‐based (NTIB) island‐biogeography frameworks jointly explain taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity in a temperate–subarctic, volcanically active archipelago. Location Kuril Islands, northwestern Pacific (44°–50° N). Time Period Present. Taxon Vascular plants.

INTEGRATED GEOLOGIC-GEOPHYSICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE RATMANOV SUBMARINE VOLCANIC MASSIF (KURILE ISLAND ARC) [PDF]
The article presents the results of integrated geologic-geophysical investigation of the Ratmanov submarine volcanic massif, located in the Kurile Island Arc, 15 km southeast of the Chirinkotan island. There is a small submarine volcano on the northwestern slope of the massif with a relative height of 400–450 m, dredging of which raised andesites and a

The Sea of Japan is a semi‐enclosed marginal sea in the northwestern Pacific whose bathyal communities exhibit a depauperate species diversity due to anoxic events during the last glacial maximum. Cold seeps associated with chemosynthetic ecosystems were discovered in this region over three decades ago, yet their fauna have not been characterised. Here,

New Data on the Structure of the Okhotsk Margin, the Kuril Arc [PDF]
По данным одноканального непрерывного сейсмопрофилирования 21 рейса НИС «Пегас» 1980 анализируется строение нескольких экструзивных куполов на юге охотской окраины Курильской дуги близ кальдеры Львиная Пасть (ЮЗ побережье о ва Итуруп).

Melt Architecture Under East Asian Volcanoes Revealed by Anisotropic Tomography
Abstract Cenozoic volcanic rocks in East Asia are widespread across subduction zones, oceanic plates, and continental interiors. The generation of these volcanic materials is closely associated with partial melting of the upper mantle and the stagnation of the Pacific slab in the mantle transition zone.

On the Kamchatka peninsula, lahars or volcanogenic mudflows arise as a result of intensive snow melting caused by incandescent material ejected by volcanoes onto the surface.

Biological surveys reveal unexpectedly high faunal diversity at Nankai Trough methane seeps
Abstract Cold seeps are chemosynthesis‐based ecosystems powered by microbial primary production that support diverse and specialized faunal assemblages in the deep sea. Despite Nankai Trough in Japan being a geologically active margin hosting numerous seeps, much of the faunal diversity remains undocumented.
