Volcanic and tectonic features of Shirahama Bank in the northern Ryukyu Arc: Implications for cross-arc volcanism controlled by arc-parallel extension

Marine Geology, 2021
Abstract This paper presents volcanic and tectonic features of Shirahama Bank, an unexplored shallow submarine edifice in the northern Ryukyu Arc which was previously poorly mapped, and consequently the nature of its volcanism and tectonism have been poorly understood.

Tectonics of an arc-arc junction: an example from Kyushu Island at the junction of the Southwest Japan Arc and the Ryukyu Arc

Tectonophysics, 1994
Abstract Three distinctive geologic events occurred synchronously during the last 6 m.y. on Kyushu Island, lying at the junction of the Southwest Japan Arc and the Ryukyu Arc. These events included: (1) dextral-fault displacement along a 100 km section of the Median Tectonic Line; (2) formation of a rectangular volcano-tectonic depression 70 km long ...

The Southwest Ryukyu Arc is a migrating microplate (forearc sliver)

Tectonophysics, 1989
Abstract We propose a new interpretation for the tectonism of the Southwest Ryukyu Arc, based on inland stress field analyses and the interpretation of seismic reflection profiles. The recent stress field in the Southwest Ryukyu Arc is under tension, the axial direction of which is parallel to the trench axis, but an E-W dextral slip shear zone is ...

Quaternary volcanic front at the junction of the South-west Japan Arc and the Ryukyu Arc

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 1998
Abstract The Hohi volcanic zone, a 70 by 40 km volcanic graben on Kyushu Island at the junction of the South-west Japan Arc and the Ryukyu Arc, has been formed since 6 Ma to the present. Quaternary volcanism, producing centers along a NE–SW trending line, the volcanic front, started at about 1.5 Ma.

Submarine active normal faults completely crossing the southwest Ryukyu Arc

Tectonophysics, 2009
Abstract Several identified ‘active faults’ located in the southwest Ryukyu area may be an origin of M5-class earthquakes taking place frequently every year, sometimes of M7-class earthquakes which cause a severe geohazard in this area. ‘The East Ishigaki Fault’, one of the ‘officially identified’ active faults, was studied precisely by multibeam ...
