Pore‐Pressure Cycles and Slow Slip Generation on Mildly Velocity‐Weakening Faults

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Recent observations have revealed pore‐fluid pressure fluctuations correlated with the occurrence of slow slip events (SSEs) in several subduction zones. These fluctuations, caused by fluid accumulation and migration before and during SSEs, may modulate the timing and characteristics of these events.

Precise tilt measurement by seafloor borehole tiltmeters at the Nankai Trough subduction zone

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2023
In this study, geodetic and seismic phenomena occurring in the subduction zone were observed with two tiltmeters that were installed in seafloor boreholes drilled in the Kumano Basin in the Nankai Trough, southwest Japan.

P wave anisotropic tomography of the Nankai subduction zone in Southwest Japan

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2012
The active subduction of the young Philippine Sea (PHS) plate and the old Pacific plate has resulted in significant seismic heterogeneity and anisotropy in Southwest (SW) Japan. In this work we determined a detailed 3‐D P wave anisotropic tomography of the crust and upper mantle beneath SW Japan using ∼540,000 P wave arrival times from 5,249 local ...

High‐Rate GNSS Analysis of the Onset, Growth, and Termination of Slow Slip Events and Their Along‐Dip Variability Offshore the Boso Peninsula, Japan (2011–2024)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Recurring slow slip events (SSEs) with moment magnitudes in the mid‐6 range have occurred every few years since the 1990s offshore the Boso Peninsula, Japan. These events occur near the source area of ∼M8 megathrust earthquakes beneath the Tokyo metropolitan area and are accompanied by earthquake swarms.

Moment tensor inversion of the 2016 southeast offshore Mie earthquake in the Tonankai region using a three-dimensional velocity structure model: effects of the accretionary prism and subducting oceanic plate

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2018
The southeast offshore Mie earthquake occurred on April 1, 2016 near the rupture area of the 1944 Tonankai earthquake, where seismicity around the interface of the Philippine Sea plate had been very low until this earthquake.

Origin, Tectonic Processes, and Metasomatism of Serpentinite in the Shimanto Accretionary Complex, SW Japan: Possible Diapiric Intrusion of Serpentinized Oceanic Lithosphere

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Serpentinite plays a major role in the geodynamics of subduction zones. However, the processes by which serpentinite is incorporated into accretionary complexes, and the extent to which it interacts chemically and physically with accretionary lithologies, remain unclear.

Subduction zone magmatism

open access: yes, 1995
The physical and chemical processes that occur during the subduction of two converging tectonic plates have significant consequences, contributing to both the growth of the continental crust and the chemical and thermal evolution of the Earth's interior.

Interface Deformation, Exhumation, and Underplating: The Role of Plate Velocity Changes Throughout the Evolution of a Subduction Zone

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Exhumed metamorphic rocks yield critical insights into the mechanical, chemical, and thermal structure of the plate interface that can be used to infer exhumation pathways and their evolution throughout a subduction zone's lifetime. Metamorphosed oceanic rocks often record exhumation and underplating over relatively punctuated time periods ...

Revisiting interseismic deformation in Nankai: focusing on slip-deficit accumulation in the ETS zone and comparison with Cascadia

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Various stress-releasing phenomena, such as episodic tremor and slip (ETS) and low-frequency earthquakes, occur at the downdip seismogenic zone in southwest Japan.
