The complete mitochondrial genome of Paralvinella hessleri: an endemic species of deep-sea hydrothermal vent

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Paralvinella hessleri is a terrebellomorphy polychaetae worm lives on the hydrothermal vents in the Okinawa trough and Mariana Back-Arc basin. We report the complete mitochondrial genome of P. hessleri, which is 16,978 bp in length, containing 13 protein-

Ocean circulation contributes to genetic connectivity of limpet populations at deep‐sea hydrothermal vents in a back‐arc basin

Evolutionary Applications
For endemic benthos inhabiting hydrothermal vent fields, larval recruitment is critical for population maintenance and colonization via migration among separated sites. The vent‐endemic limpet, Lepetodrilus nux, is abundant at deep‐sea hydrothermal vents

[Review of] Ethnic Studies Oral History Project and United Okinawan Association of Hawaii, eds. Uchinanchu: A History of Okinawans in Hawaii [PDF]

, 1986
While the experiences of most ethnic groups are frequently overlooked, this is especially the fate of relatively small groups. Many small groups merit greater attention, for example the Okinawans who migrated to Hawaii from 1900-1924, worked on sugar and

Two possible hydrothermal vents in the northern Okinawa Trough

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2001
As the Okinawa Trough is a back-arc basin in early spreading, modern submarine hydrothermal activity and minerallization have many characteristics which have aroused wide attention. Up to now, three well-known hydrothermal venting areas are all located in the middle part of the trough.

High-density surveys conducted to reveal active deformations of the upper forearc slope along the Ryukyu Trench, western Pacific, Japan

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2018
In this study, which was conducted to investigate present-day geological deformations occurring off the central Ryukyu Arc along the Ryukyu Trench (Okinawa-jima) in the vicinity of Japan, we obtained and examined dense, high-resolution, 2D grid (high ...

Characteristics of Microbial Diversity and Metabolic Versatility in Dynamic Mid-Okinawa Trough Subsurface Sediments

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Large-scale and multi-sample datasets have revealed that microbial diversity and geographic distribution patterns are distinct across various habitats, particularly between hydrothermal vent and cold seep ecosystems.

Slab horizontal subduction and slab tearing beneath East Asia [PDF]

, 2019
The present‐day architecture of subducted slabs in the mantle as inferred from seismic tomography is a record of plate tectonics through geological time. The unusually large slab that lies nearly horizontally above the 660‐km mantle discontinuity beneath
