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

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

Deep countercurrent beneath the Kuroshio in the Okinawa Trough [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research, 2008 The Okinawa Trough is geographically separated into the northern and southern parts by the Kerama Gap, and the northern part is composed of the northern, central and southern subbasins formed by bights of the continental slope. Previous observations have indicated that a deep countercurrent is present beneath the Kuroshio on the continental slope in ...

A Persistent Mid-Depth Dissolved Manganese Maximum in the Southern Okinawa Trough
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 1998 The vertical distributions of managanese at a station in the southern Okinawa Trough were investigated bi-monthly by analyzing the dissolved manganese in filtered seawaters.

Vent Fauna in the Okinawa Trough [PDF]
, 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.

Earth, 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

Journal 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
