Arc Heat Flow and Magmatic Heat Budgets

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract We evaluate hydrothermal heat loss from 11 volcanic‐arc segments (∼6,000 km of arc length, ∼10% of the global total), motivated by the observation that much magmatic heat ultimately crosses the land surface as heated aqueous fluid. Heat loss takes place by volcanic eruption, geothermal heat conduction to the surface, fumarolic (vapor ...

Receiver Function Imaging of the Crustal Structure Beneath Northern Taiwan Using Dense Linear Arrays

Geosciences, 2022
In order to realize the crustal structure in Taiwan, the receiver function method was used to analyze the teleseismic waveforms recorded by two orthogonal broadband linear arrays deployed in northern Taiwan in the east–west and south–north directions by ...

Upper mantle velocity structure in the Ryukyu and Taiwan-Luzon arcs.

Journal of Physics of the Earth, 1984
Upper mantle velocity structure in the Ryukyu and Taiwan-Luzon Island arc regions of the northwest Pacific has been determined to a depth of about 255 km from the analysis of P and S wave travel times data of 106 earthquakes with focal depths varying from 35 to 255 km.

Precise Temperature Measurements and Long‐Term Observations Revealed an Almost‐Constant Temperature Zone in a Vertical 700‐m‐Deep Borehole in the Aso Volcanic Region

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract To determine the subsurface temperature distribution and its relevance to groundwater flow in the deep subsurface, we repeated temperature depth profile measurements and conducted long‐term temperature observations in an ∼700‐m‐deep borehole penetrating the Futagawa fault along the Kiyama–Kashima graben in the Aso volcanic region, Japan from ...

Two‐Layer Anisotropy Beneath Subduction Zones: Bayesian Inversion

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Shear‐wave splitting measurements have the potential to constrain multiple layers of anisotropy and thereby enhance depth resolution. Using the formulation of Silver and Savage (1994, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365‐246x.1994.tb04027.x), previous studies have employed deterministic grid‐search approaches to identify best‐fitting two‐layer ...

Link between Crustal Magnetization and Earthquakes in Taiwan

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2008
The active Taiwan orogen is located between the Ryukyu subduction zone in the northeast and the Manila subduction zone in the south. Intensive collision from the northwestward motion of the Luzon Arc has induced enormous earthquakes in and around Taiwan.

Unveiling coralline diversity of mesophotic rhodoliths in subtropical Japan, including new species of Sporolithon, emended genera Orientalilithon and Roseolithon (Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta)

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 1044-1070, June 2026.
Abstract The mesophotic zone off Tanegashima Island (approximately 30–40 m deep) is a marine macroalgal hotspot in subtropical Japan; however, the taxonomic diversity of calcifying red algal community remains poorly understood. Our phylogenetic analyses based on psbA, rbcL, and COI‐5P gene markers disclosed the presence of at least 12 rhodolith‐forming

Moho Fold Structure Beneath the East China Sea and Its Tectonic Implications

Remote Sensing
Moho fold structures provide critical insights into the tectonic evolution of the East China Sea. However, previous models exhibit substantial uncertainties, primarily resulting from the unaccounted gravitational effects of crustal sources and ...

Active normal faults and submarine landslides in the Keelung Shelf off NE Taiwan

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2018
The westernmost Okinawa Trough back-arc basin is located to the north of the Ryukyu islands and is situated above the northward dipping Ryukyu subducted slab.

Characteristics of seismicity in the southern Okinawa Trough and their relation to back-arc rifting processes

Earth, Planets and Space, 2021
The southern part of the Okinawa Trough forms a narrow back-arc rift basin where evidence for submarine volcanoes and active hydrothermal venting is observed.
