State of Stress Across Major Faults in the Nankai Subduction Zone Estimated From Wellbore Breakouts

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Quantifying the orientation and magnitude of stress at tectonically active margins and along major fault systems is integral to understanding the mechanics of faulting and earthquakes. Here we use data collected as part of the IODP (Integrated Ocean Drilling Program) Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment to constrain in situ stress ...

Thermal Conductivity Profile in the Nankai Accretionary Prism at IODP NanTroSEIZE Site C0002: Estimations From High‐Pressure Experiments Using Input Site Sediments

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Depth profiles of sediment thermal conductivity are required for understanding the thermal structure in active seismogenic zones. During the Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment (NanTroSEIZE), a scientific drilling project of the International Ocean

Subsurface Gaseous Hydrocarbons and Carbon Dioxide Recorded During the Trans‐Amazon Drilling Project (TADP) in the Acre Basin, Western Amazon

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The Trans‐Amazon Drilling Project (TADP) drilled a sequence of claystones, siltstones, and sandstones in the Acre sedimentary basin, reaching a final depth of 923 m. This study characterizes the occurrence and compositional variation of light gaseous hydrocarbons detected using the online gas analysis (OLGA) monitoring system deployed during drilling ...

Release of mineral-bound water prior to subduction tied to shallow seismogenic slip off Sumatra [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plate-boundary fault rupture during the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman subduction earthquake extended closer to the trench than expected, increasing earthquake and tsunami size.

The Self‐Calibrating Tilt Accelerometer: A Method for Observing Tilt and Correcting Drift With a Triaxial Accelerometer

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 11, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract We present observations from two field deployments of a calibrated tiltmeter that we name the Self‐Calibrating Tilt Accelerometer (SCTA). The tiltmeter is based upon a triaxial quartz crystal accelerometer; the horizontal channels measure tilt and are periodically rotated into the vertical to obtain a measurement of the acceleration of gravity.

In situ thermal excursions detected in the Nankai Trough forearc slope sediment at IODP NanTroSEIZE Site C0008 [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2015
At Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Site C0008 in the Nankai Trough slope sediment, we discovered in situ temperature anomalies at 80 to 160 m below the seafloor, where pore fluid Cl and δ 18O excursions were identified and interpreted as pore fluid refreshing due to hydrate dissociation.

Acoustic and mechanical properties of Nankai accretionary prism core samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
International audienceWe studied undeformed sediment and accreted strata recently recovered by Ocean Drilling Program/Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (ODP/IODP) drilling in Nankai Trough convergent margin to unravel the changes in physical properties ...

Sediment Provenance Along the Middle Miocene‐Pleistocene Nankai Subduction Zone From Sediment Transport to Accretion: Implications for Stratigraphy in the Accretionary Prism

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Based on U‐Pb dating of zircon crystals and petrographic analysis, this study provides new insights into the paleogeographic and accretion evolution along SW Japan. Our data are consistent with an older submarine fan identified from drilling in the Shikoku Basin (Kyushu Fan ∼14.7–12.2 Ma), having a mixed sand provenance from the paleo‐Yangtze ...

Horizontal principal stress orientation in the Costa Rica Seismogenesis Project (CRISP) transect from borehole breakouts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Costa Rica Seismogenesis Project (CRISP) drilled the Pacific margin of the Middle America Trench just north of where the Cocos Ridge enters the subduction zone, resulting in basal erosion of the upper plate.

Frontal Thrust Ramp‐Up and Slow Earthquakes Due To Underthrusting of Basement High in the Nankai Trough

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Recently, integrated geophysical‐geological surveys in the Nankai subduction zone in Japan have revealed that slow earthquakes repeatedly occur beneath the outer wedge of the forearc. During December 2020 to February 2021, clustered slow earthquakes propagated around the frontal thrust of the accretionary wedge.
