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

Characterization of water masses around the southern Ryukyu Islands based on isotopic compositions
We investigated the water-mass structure on the Okinawa Trough and Pacific sides of the southern Ryukyu Island Arc (Yonaguni, Iriomote, and Ishigaki subareas) using the Nd isotope composition (143Nd/144Nd ratios; expressed as εNd values) of benthic ...

Sea-floor tectonics and submarine hydrothermal systems [PDF]
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

We used the audio magnetotelluric (AMT) method to delineate subsurface resistivity structures associated with the western Ilan Plain, which is emerged from the orogenic belt in northeastern Taiwan and is thought to be influenced by the opening Okinawa ...

Diversity of Anaerobic Methane Oxidizers in the Cold Seep Sediments of the Okinawa Trough
Active cold seeps in the Okinawa Trough (OT) have been widely identified, but the sediment microbial communities associated with these sites are still poorly understood.

A new species of Orchomenella (Amphipoda, Tryphosidae) described from hydrothermal vent in the Okinawa Trough, Northwest Pacific [PDF]
A new species of the family Tryphosidae, Orchomenella compressa sp. nov., is described from hydrothermal vents in the Okinawa Trough. This is the first known Orchomenella species found in vent fields. Important morphological characters that differentiate

Key points The Sr isotopic ratios of hydrothermal fluids from the Okinawa Trough are exceptionally high. The enrichment of 87Sr at Yonaguni Knoll IV cannot be explained without the influence of terrestrial clay minerals in sediments.

Influence of surface tension in the surfactant-driven fracture of closely-packed particulate monolayers [PDF]
A phase-field model is used to capture the surfactant-driven formation of fracture patterns in particulate monolayers. The model is intended for the regime of closely-packed systems in which the mechanical response of the monolayer can be approximated as
