Geophysical evidence for submarine methane seepage on the Western slope of Okinawa Trough

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Identifying seafloor methane seepage efficiently has important implications for assessing environmental impact, reducing the uncertainty of top seal integrity, understanding the petroleum system, and mitigating the drilling hazards due to shallow gas ...

Heat flow in the southwestern Okinawa Trough

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters, 1981
Abstract Lying to the southeast of the East China Sea continental shelf, the Okinawa Trough is believed to have been formed by crustal spreading behind the Ryukyu island arc. It has the highest mean heat flow among the Pacific marginal basins. The mean of 18 reliable measurements is3.34±2.75HFU.

Hydrothermal activity revealed by rock magnetic anomaly from core sediments in the southern Okinawa Trough

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2019
The southern Okinawa Trough has been widely considered an important area with hydrothermal activity. Several active hydrothermal fields have been reported, especially around the Yonaguni Knoll IV.

Geomagnetic anomalies in the middle Okinawa Trough.

open access: yesJournal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1985
Geomagnetic survey by means of the proton magnetometer and the three component magnetometer was carried out by the RN 83 Cruise of the Nagasaki Maru to reveal Pleistocene igneous activities along the axial median valley (central rift) of the middle Okinawa Trough in 1983.Preliminary results are as follows:(1) Magnetic anomaly lineations were clearly ...

Introduction to the special issue on tectonic environment and seabed resources of the southern Okinawa Trough

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2019
Okinawa Trough (OT) is a back-arc basin behind the Ryukyu arc-trench system and located along the eastern margin of the Eurasian continent. It extends from the southwest Kyushu Island to the Ilan Plain of Taiwan (Fig. 1).

Diversity of Bacteria with Quorum Sensing and Quenching Activities from Hydrothermal Vents in the Okinawa Trough

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Quorum sensing (QS) is a chemical communication system by which bacteria coordinate gene expression and social behaviors. Quorum quenching (QQ) refers to processes of inhibiting the QS pathway. Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are extreme marine environments,
