On lithospheric flexure seaward of the Bonin and Mariana trenches
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1979 Abstract More than 25 bathymetry profiles have been used to examine the flexure of the Pacific lithosphere seaward of the Izu-Bonin and Mariana trenches. Selected bathymetry profiles have been corrected for the effects of sediment loading and compared to simple elastic and elastic-plastic models for lithospheric flexure seaward of these trenches ...

How and what turbulent are deep Mariana Trench waters? [PDF]
Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans, 2023 To study potentially turbulent water motions near the deepest point on Earth in the Challenger Deep of the Mariana Trench, a 588-m long string equipped with specially designed sensitive temperature sensors was moored for nearly three years. Detailed analysis of one year of good data distinguishes ubiquitous internal tidal waves and hundreds of meters ...

High-density element concentrations in fish from subtidal to hadal zones of the Pacific Ocean
Heliyon, 2018 Anthropogenic use of high density, toxic elements results in marine pollution which is bio-accumulating throughout marine food webs. While there have been several studies in various locations analyzing such elements in fish, few have investigated ...

Hadal water biogeochemistry over the Izu–Ogasawara Trench observed with a full-depth CTD-CMS [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2018 Full-depth profiles of hydrographic and geochemical properties at the Izu–Ogasawara Trench were observed for the first time using a CTD-CMS (conductivity–temperature–depth profiler with carousel multiple sampling) system.

Microbiomes in the Challenger Deep slope and bottom-axis sediments
Nature Communications, 2022 The V-shaped Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench is the deepest part of the world’s oceans. Using 586 prokaryotic metagenome-assembled genomes and metatranscriptomic data, this study explores metabolic capabilities and activities of microorganisms ...

Development of a Hadal Microbial In Situ Multi-Stage Filtering and Preserving Device
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 The unique environment of the hadal zone has created material circulation patterns and biological gene characteristics. Microbes play an irreplaceable role in the ocean ecological environment and material circulation due to their pervasiveness, abundance,
