Volcanic Characteristics of Kueishantao in Northeast Taiwan and Their Implications
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2010 Kueishantao (KST) is a small offshore volcanic island located at the southernmost part of the Okinawa Trough. In this study, we conducted a detailed mapping incorporating the new high resolution LiDAR DTM laser scanning device to accurately construct a ...

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 418-440, February 2026.ABSTRACT The early Cambrian transgression that flooded continental margins worldwide produced extensive sedimentary records that archive valuable information about palaeogeography and basin dynamics. This study integrates detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology and wholerock geochemistry from the Myeonsan and Myobong formations of the basal Taebaek Group ...

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 ...

B‐type olivine fabric and mantle wedge serpentinization beneath the Ryukyu arc [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2013 Subduction is a fundamental Earth process, yet many aspects of subduction systems remain to be fully understood. Here we present anisotropic receiver function (RF) analysis to characterize the structure of the mantle wedge beneath the Ryukyu subduction zone.

Segmentation of the Izu-Bonin and Mariana slabs based on the analysis of the Benioff seismicity distribution and regional tomography results [PDF]
, 2013 We present a new model of P and S velocity anomalies in the mantle down to a depth of 1300 km beneath the Izu-Bonin and Mariana (IBM) arcs. This model is derived based on tomographic inversion of global travel time data from the revised ISC catalogue ...

Slab horizontal subduction and slab tearing beneath East Asia [PDF]
, 2019 The present‐day architecture of subducted slabs in the mantle as inferred from seismic tomography is a record of plate tectonics through geological time. The unusually large slab that lies nearly horizontally above the 660‐km mantle discontinuity beneath

Improving Global Radial Anisotropy Tomography: The Importance of Simultaneously Inverting for Crustal and Mantle Structure [PDF]
, 2017 Observed seismic anisotropy gives the most direct information on mantle flow, but it is challenging to image it robustly at global scales. Difficulties in separating crustal from mantle structures in particular can have a strong influence on the imaging.

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The Sea of Japan is a semi‐enclosed marginal sea in the northwestern Pacific whose bathyal communities exhibit a depauperate species diversity due to anoxic events during the last glacial maximum. Cold seeps associated with chemosynthetic ecosystems were discovered in this region over three decades ago, yet their fauna have not been characterised. Here,
