Increased rates of large-magnitude explosive eruptions in Japan in the late Neogene and Quaternary [PDF]

, 2016
Tephra layers in marine sediment cores from scientific ocean drilling largely record high-magnitude silicic explosive eruptions in the Japan arc for up to the last 20 million years.

Crustal density structure investigation of the East China Sea and adjacent regions using wavenumber domain 3D density imaging method

Earth, Planets and Space
The East China Sea, situated at the intersection of the Eurasian, Philippine Sea, and Pacific plates, is characterized by complex geology influenced by tectonic phenomena such as plate movements, volcanism, faults, and uplifts.

Geological and Geographical Characteristics of Limestone and Karst Landforms in Japan: Insights from Akiyoshidai, Seiyo (Shikoku), and Okinoerabu Island

Geosciences
Limestone in Japan exhibits distinct distribution patterns and associated lithologies compared to limestone found in most other parts of the world. These differences reflect contrasting depositional settings and formation processes. While the majority of

Earthquake‐Related Structures Beneath the Southernmost Portion of the Ryukyu Arc and Forearc

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
AbstractModerate to large earthquakes repeatedly occur beneath the southernmost Ryukyu arc and forearc, but the seismogenic structures were poorly studied. To better understand the southernmost Ryukyu seismogenic structures, we have deployed ocean bottom seismometers to record the aftershocks of a large earthquake in 2015.

Eruptive history of Mt Huangzuei, Eastern Tatun Volcano Group, Taiwan, resolved by 40Ar/39Ar and zircon double-dating of lava flows

Geoscience Letters
The Tatun Volcano Group (TVG), located within the Northern Taiwan Volcanic Zone, formed in an extensional back-arc setting at the western end of the Ryukyu subduction system.

Gravity and geoid anomalies of the Philippine Sea: Evidence on the depth of compensation for the negative residual water depth anomaly [PDF]

A negative free-air gravity anomaly which occurs in the central part of the Philippine Sea was examined to determine the distribution and nature of possible regional mass excesses or deficiencies. Geoid anomalies from GEOS-3 observation were positive.
