Link between the Nankai underthrust turbidites and shallow slow earthquakes [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Trench sediments such as pelagic clay or terrigenous turbidites have long been invoked to explain the seismogenic behavior of the megathrust fault (i.e., décollement).

Shallow very-low-frequency earthquakes accompany slow slip events in the Nankai subduction zone [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2018
Slow earthquakes are now increasingly recognised to occur at plate boundaries globally. Here, the authors examine seafloor observational data from the Nankai trough and find that very-low-frequency events and slow-slip events frequently occur together ...

Reconstruction of stress trajectory field in Nankai subduction zone based on drilling data

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
This paper presents some results of stress field reconstruction in the Nankai Trough subduction zone located within the area bounded by 136.3°–137°E and 33°–33.5°N where 12 scientific wells were drilled during Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment ...

Role of plate convergence rate in shaping earthquake recurrence in subduction zones [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Understanding the complex interplay of subduction zone processes is key to unravelling the timing and distribution of great earthquake cycles within the framework of the plate tectonics paradigm.

Subducted carbon weakens the forearc mantle wedge in a warm subduction zone [PDF]

Nature Communications
Subducting oceanic plates carry large amounts of carbon into the Earth’s interior. The subducted carbon is mobilized by fluid and encounters ultramafic rocks in the mantle wedge, resulting in changes to the mineral assemblage and mechanical properties of

Structural control and system-level behavior of the seismic cycle at the Nankai Trough

Earth, Planets and Space, 2020
The Nankai Trough in Southwest Japan exhibits a wide spectrum of fault slip, with long-term and short-term slow-slip events, slow and fast earthquakes, all associated with different segments down the plate interface.

NanTroSEIZE: The IODP Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment [PDF]

Scientific Drilling, 2006
The IODP Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment (NanTroSEIZE) will, for the fi rst time ever, attempt to drill into, sample, and instrument the seismogenic portion of a plate-boundary fault or megathrust within a subduction zone.
