Sequencing Ultraconserved Elements (UCEs) for Marine Population Genomics: A Proof-of-Concept Using a Deep-Sea Mussel Species. [PDF]

open access: yesEvol Appl
ABSTRACT Ultraconserved elements (UCEs) have emerged as a powerful tool for resolving deep evolutionary relationships due to their low DNA quality requirements and broad taxonomic applicability. While their utility for intraspecific and shallow‐divergence studies is growing, only a few studies have explored their performance in marine taxa, some of ...

The Huapinghsu Channel/Mienhua Canyon System as a Sediment Conduit Transporting Sediments From Offshore North Taiwan to the Southern Okinawa Trough

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
By examining bathymetric and seismic reflection data in the shelf-slope region offshore northeast of Taiwan, the morphology of the Huapinghsu Channel/Mienhua Canyon System was refined and the occurrence of axial incision in the major erosional trough of ...

Comparative Population Genetics of Two Alvinocaridid Shrimp Species in Chemosynthetic Ecosystems of the Western Pacific. [PDF]

open access: yesIntegr Zool
Little is known about the population divergence and gene flow of deep‐sea animals living in disjunct hydrothermal vents and cold seep habitats. Taking advantage of samples collected from multiple cruises across a huge distance of >5000 km, we revealed the differential population divergence pattern and gene flow in two congeneric species of shrimps ...

Back Arc Extension in the Okinawa Trough [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1987
The Okinawa Trough, lying to the east of China, is a back arc basin formed by extension within continental lithosphere behind the Ryukyu trench‐arc system. Middle to late Miocene uplift, associated with normal faulting of the initially adjacent Ryukyu nonvolcanic arc and the Taiwan‐Sinzi folded belt, corresponds to the first rifting phase.

Vent Fauna in the Okinawa Trough [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields, faunal distribution is associated with geochemical environments generated by hydrothermal vent activity. The Okinawa Trough is located between the Eurasian Continent and the Ryukyu Arc, and is characterized by sediment-associated fauna associated with vents.

Characteristics of seismicity in the southern Okinawa Trough and their relation to back-arc rifting processes

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2021
The southern part of the Okinawa Trough forms a narrow back-arc rift basin where evidence for submarine volcanoes and active hydrothermal venting is observed.

Sea-floor tectonics and submarine hydrothermal systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The discovery of metal-depositing hot springs on the sea floor, and especially their link to chemosynthetic life, was among the most compelling and significant scientific advances of the twentieth century. More than 300 sites of hydrothermal activity and

Seismic structure of rifting in the Okinawa Trough, an active backarc basin of the Ryukyu (Nansei-Shoto) island arc–trench system

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2019
The Okinawa Trough, to the southwest of Kyusyu, Japan, is an active backarc basin of the Ryukyu (Nansei-Shoto) island arc–trench system caused by the Philippine Sea plate subduction. Unlike other backarc basins around Japan, the Okinawa Trough, ~ 1000 km

Variability of the Deep Overflow through the Kerama Gap Revealed by Observational Data and Global Ocean Reanalysis

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Herein, the temporal variability of the deep overflow through the Kerama Gap between the East China Sea and the Philippine Sea is investigated based on observational data combined with reanalysis data obtained during 2004–2011. The observations and model
