Echoes of Evolution in Holocentridae: Harmony Between Phylogeny, Morphology and Acoustics

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using phylogenetic, morphological, and acoustic data from 53 species, we reconstructed the evolution of acoustic communication in nocturnal reef fishes of the family Holocentridae. Our results reveal two major clades with distinct sound‐producing morphologies and acoustic features, and suggest a three‐step diversification process involving the ...

Tectonic Evolution of the Philippine Sea Plate Based on Paleomagnetic Results.

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1991
A brief review of paleomagnetic studies in the Philippine Sea and Izu-Bonin arc including the recent Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) results was made to clarify the present status and problems of the study on the tectonic evolution of the Philippine Sea plate.

New canopy legume species highlight liana gap sampling across Amazonian and Atlantic rain forests

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Lianas are a key component of the Neotropical flora, accounting for 10% of angiosperm richness and playing important ecological roles. However, the canopy preference of some species often leads to their underrepresentation in herbarium collections, thereby exacerbating Linnaean, Darwinian, and Wallacean shortfalls. The papilionoid legume genus

The Central Mindoro Fault: An Active Sinistral Fault Within the Translational Boundary Between the Palawan Microcontinental Block and the Philippine Mobile Belt

GeoHazards
The NNW-trending Central Mindoro Fault (CMF) is an active oblique left-lateral strike-slip fault as determined from offset morphotectonic features such as spurs and streams.

Large-scale slope failure and active erosion occurring in the southwest Ryukyu fore-arc area [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2001
The southwestern Ryukyu area east of Taiwan Island is an arcuate boundary between Philippine Sea Plate and Eurasian Plate. The topographic features in the area are characterised by (1) a large-scale amphitheatre off Ishigaki Island, just on the ...

Bathymetry Prediction With SWOT Gravity Anomaly Using Machine Learning Methods: Paper 1–Model Development

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Only one quarter of the global ocean floor has been directly surveyed; the remaining three quarters are inferred from satellite altimeter‐derived gravity data using techniques developed in the 1990s. These classical methods correlate gravity anomalies with known depths and extrapolate bathymetry in unsounded regions.

Morphological studies of the Ayu Trough, Philippine Sea – Caroline Plate Boundary

Geophysical Research Letters, 1995
The Ayu Trough lies on the southern boundary between the Philippine Sea Plate and Caroline Plate. Although this trough may be the best place to study the evolution and kinematics of the Philippine Sea Plate, the origin and evolution of this trough are poorly understood.

Event Deposits Recorded Over the Past 800 kyr in IODP Hole U1433A (South China Sea): Implications of a Revised Methodology for Chronology and Paleoclimate Reconstruction

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Instantaneous event deposits such as turbidites, debrites, and slumps are common and frequently occur in marginal seas. These instantaneous deposits represent seconds to days in duration, and can therefore significantly impact age‐depth models and interpretation of paleoclimate history based on thick sedimentary sequences recovered in deep ...

Seismic Constraints on Igneous Intrusions and Fluid/Gas Distribution in a Continental Back‐Arc System: Evidence From the Yaeyama Rift in the Southern Okinawa Trough

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The geometry and distribution of igneous intrusions, which define melt source locations and record syn‐emplacement stress conditions, are essential for understanding tectonic and magmatic processes associated with crustal extension. However, in back‐arc settings along continental margins, structural constraints on these features remain poorly ...

The Crustal Thickness of the Philippine Sea Plate Derived from Gravity Data

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2015
We constructed a new free-air gravity anomaly map of the Philippine Sea Plate (PSP) using ship-tracked gravity data from the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC).
