The Relation Between Two Types of Frequent Wave Breaking Over Southeastern Siberia and Different Conditions of Unseasonable Midsummer Weather Over Japan

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
To analyze the different morphologies of Rossby wave breaking over Eastern Siberia and their relationships with the anomalous patterns of temperature and precipitation that cause unseasonable midsummer weather conditions over Japan, we performed regression analyses against the interannual variabilities of the anticyclonic and cyclonic Rossby wave ...

Isolation and characterization of a thermophilic, obligately anaerobic and heterotrophic marine Chloroflexi bacterium from a Chloroflexi dominated microbial community associated with a Japanese shallow hydrothermal system, and proposal for Thermomarinilinea lacunofontalis gen. nov., sp. nov. [PDF]

, 2013
A novel marine thermophilic and heterotrophic Anaerolineae bacterium in the phylum Chloroflexi, strain SW7T, was isolated from an in situ colonization system deployed in the main hydrothermal vent of the Taketomi submarine hot spring field located on the

Hydrothermal Characteristics of the Mienhua Submarine Volcano in the Southernmost Okinawa Trough

Marine Geophysical Research, 2022
Abstract The Mienhua submarine volcano (MHV) is located in the southernmost Okinawa Trough and exhibits vigorous hydrothermal activity. This paper presents a detailed volcanic morphological analysis of the MHV, which has not been fully explored or discussed in terms of its hydrothermal characteristics and their relationship to hydrothermal ...

Scheffrahnitermes ubuntu (Isoptera: Apicotermitinae), Description of a New Termite Using a Collaborative Approach to Address the Wallacean Shortfall

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
The study of Neotropical Apicotermitinae remains challenging due to the large number of undescribed taxa (Linnean shortfall) as well as the scarcity of distributional data (Wallacean shortfall). Despite recent efforts to reduce the first one, the second remains an even more significant challenge.

Gas plumes and near-seafloor bottom current speeds of the southernmost Okinawa Trough determined from echo sounders

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2019
Using echo sounders to detect gas plumes in seawater is common, especially in the context of hydrothermal circulation areas or gas hydrate-bearing cold seeps.

Activated seismicity by strain rate change in the Yaeyama region, south Ryukyu

Earth, Planets and Space, 2018
We evaluated the long-term strain rate by using continuous global navigation satellite system data of GEONET and compared it with seismicity activation between 1996 and 2017 near Iriomote Island, south Ryukyu arc.

Autocorrelation Seismic Imaging of Northern Taiwan Using Ambient Noise Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Over the past few million years, northern Taiwan records a tectonic history of subduction to arc–continent collision followed by post‐collisional collapse. This evolution motivates constraints on crustal structure, including crustal layering and thickness.

Detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology of sediments from the Okinawa Trough: implications for sedimentary provenance

Frontiers in Earth Science
In order to distinguish terrestrial material sources in the Okinawa Trough (OT), this study analyzed four surface sediment samples from the northern, middle, and southern parts of the OT using detrital zircon U-Pb age analysis.
