Characteristics of Microbial Community Structure at the Seafloor Surface of the Nankai Trough

, 2019
Phylogenetic analysis of bacteria and archaea on the seafloor surface of the Nankai Trough was conducted. DNA was extracted from a total of 14 samples (2 samples from 1 methane seep area and 12 samples from 12 general seafloor areas) and analyzed ...

Simulation of great earthquakes along the Nankai Trough: reproduction of event history, slip areas of the Showa Tonankai and Nankai earthquakes, heterogeneous slip-deficit rates, and long-term slow slip events

Earth, Planets and Space, 2022
Great earthquakes have occurred repeatedly along the Nankai Trough, but only for recent events are details known, such as rupture areas and time lags between paired events.

Characteristics Analysis and Stage Division of Class Ⅰ Gas Hydrate Deposit Developed by Vertical Well and Depressurization Based on Numerical Analysis

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The production process can be divided into two stages according to the relationship between the gas production rate and the decomposition gas rate. The ratio of cumulative decomposition gas to cumulative gas production can be used to evaluate the contribution of the gas hydrate layer.

Structural Evolution of the Eastern Nankai Trough accretionary prism, Central Japan—Subduction of Trough-Parallel Seamount Chains

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science
The Nankai Trough, offshore of Southwest Japan, represents a plate subduction zone where a long history of devastating mega-earthquake and tsunami events has been best documented.

Rare Synchronization Among Recurring Earthquakes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Earthquakes are notoriously irregular, yet occasionally neighboring faults rupture in close succession, repeatedly, as if synchronized. Over successive cycles, differences in recurrence intervals, overall irregularity and external stressors should all drive neighboring faults out of phase.

The dayside high-latitude trough under quiet geomagnetic conditions: Radio tomography and the CTIP model [PDF]

, 2005
International audienceThe dayside high-latitude trough is a persistent feature of the post-noon wintertime auroral ionosphere. Radio tomography observations have been used to map its location and latitudinal structure under quiet geomagnetic conditions ...

Quantifying the Role of 3D Fault Geometry Complexities on Slow and Fast Earthquakes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Traditional models of slow slip events (SSEs) oversimplify fault geometry, although imaging shows subduction faults are segmented and complex. We examine how fault interactions control slip behavior using 3D quasi‐dynamic simulations of two parallel faults with uniform rate‐weakening friction accelerated by hierarchical matrices.

Estimate of the contraction rate of central Japan through the deformation of the Philippine Sea slab

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2019
The Philippine Sea (PHS) slab is severely deformed beneath central Japan, but it is subject to little deformation before the subduction along the Nankai Trough.

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2837-2854, September 2026.
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.
