Viruses in the sediments around the trenches harbor diverse survival mechanisms

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Deep‐sea trenches are the deepest and most isolated environments in the global ocean but the diversity and adaptation of the viral communities remain poorly characterized. In this study, 5563 viral operational taxonomic units (vOTUs) were identified from sediments of the Yap Trench and Western Caroline Basin.

Lateral Variations of Rayleigh-Wave Dispersions in the Philippine Sea Region

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2007
Fresh two-dimensional group and phase-velocity distribution maps of the Philippine Sea and surrounding areas are constructed using the tomographic inversion of more than 2500 Rayleigh-wave dispersion curves in the 20- to 120-sec period range. The results

Deep-Sea Fish Fauna on the Seamounts of Southern Japan with Taxonomic Notes on the Observed Species

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Several volcanic islands and submarine volcanoes exist in the sea connecting the Izu-Bonin Islands with the Mariana Islands, with trenches and islands formed by the submergence of the Pacific Plate under the Philippine Sea Plate. Although designated as a

Subduction of young plates: A case of the Philippine Sea plate beneath the Chugoku region, Japan [PDF]

Earth, Planets and Space, 2014
An analysis of seismic waves from regional microearthquake networks shows that the seismic leading edge of the Philippine Sea plate may have reached the uppermost mantle beneath the southern to central part of the western Chugoku region, Japan. The epicenters are located close to the volcanic front in the region. The most possible cause of the very low

Taxonomy and phylogeny of the intercontinental disjunctive ferns: series Reniformia Adiantum

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
There are disputed opinions about the three taxa of series Reniformia, namely A. nelumboides X.C.Zhang (A. reniforme var. sinense Y.X.Lin), A. reniforme var. reniforme, and A. reniforme var. asarifolium (Willd.) R. Sim, owing to their similar morphology but intercontinental disjunctive distribution and close lineage with the series Venusta (only ...

DNA metabarcoding reveals wolf dietary patterns in the northern Alps and Jura Mountains

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding predator–prey interactions is crucial for wildlife management and human–wildlife coexistence, particularly in multi‐use landscapes such as western Europe. As wolves Canis lupus recolonize their former habitats, knowledge of their diet is essential for conservation, management and public acceptance.

Seismic Anisotropy in the Java‐Banda and Philippine Subduction Zones and its Implications for the Mantle Flow System Beneath the Sunda Plate

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
The Sunda Plate is a minor tectonic plate bounded by tectonically active convergent boundaries, below which are subducting: the Philippine Sea Plate to the east and the Indo‐Australian Plate to the south and west. It is thus an ideal tectonic setting for

Sunda and Sumatra Block Motion in ITRF2008 [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2019
The Southeast Asia region is mostly surrounded by active subduction zones in which the Australian plate, the Indian plate, and the Philippine Sea plate submerges beneath the continental plates and blocks.

The Coloniality of Data: Police Databases and the Rationalization of Surveillance from Colonial Vietnam to the Modern Carceral State

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tracing the early adoption of computer gang databases by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1980s to the deployment of computationally‐assisted surveillance during the Vietnam War, this paper uses a genealogical approach to compare surveillance technologies developed across the arc of ...
