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 ...

Origins of magmatism in the Okinawa Trough: Fe–Sr–Nd–Pb–Hf isotopic constraints

, 2023
The Okinawa Trough is an incipient back-arc basin formed by the subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate and is a natural laboratory for studying basin evolution, magmatism, and crust-mantle interactions during the early stages ...

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.

Citrus depressa peel extract and its polymethoxyflavones mitigate acetaminophen‐induced chronic liver injury in mice through antioxidant activation, epigenetic regulation, and gut microbiota modulation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Preventing chronic liver damage is essential for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of serious liver diseases. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose can lead to severe liver damage due to oxidative stress, and citrus fruits are rich in bioactive compounds that may have health benefits.

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.

The Neo-Tectonic Structure of the Southwestern Tip of the Okinawa Trough

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2009
The Ilan Plain is located at the south western tip of the Okinawa Trough backarc basin, which prop a gates west ward into the Taiwan orogen. From three moderate earthquakes which occurred near the coast line of the Ilan Plain, one of magnitude 6.2 on 15 May 2002 and the other two of magnitudes 5.51 and 5.49 on 5 March 2005, we at tempted to understand ...

Assessing relational values of sacred landscapes through text mining of folktales: Insights from the Ryukyu Islands, Japan

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Assessing relational values of nature through its cultural and spiritual significance is crucial for effective nature conservation. Folktales offer insights into traditional relationships between people and nature, and text mining is a powerful tool for extracting information from textual datasets.
