The Evolution of Giant Clam Science: From Foundational Studies to Emerging Frontiers

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review synthesizes nearly two centuries of giant clam research, identifying dominant themes, knowledge gaps, and emerging opportunities. Ecology, physiology, aquaculture, genomics, and biomineralization dominate the field, whereas anatomy and biotechnology remain underexplored. Future progress requires stronger integration of genomics, physiology,

The Sub-Crustal Stress Field in the Taiwan Region

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2015
We investigate the sub-crustal stress in the Taiwan region. A tectonic configuration in this region is dominated by a collision between the Philippine oceanic plate and the Eurasian continental margin.

Circum-Pacific faulting in the Philippines-Taiwan Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 1962
Conflicting views of circum-Pacific tectonics have focused on the Philippines-Taiwan region, where there has been neither convincing documentation nor general agreement on the importance of transcurrent (strike-slip) faulting or the possible sense of ...

Calculating the global contribution of coralline algae to carbon burial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ongoing increase in anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions is changing the global marine environment and is causing warming and acidification of the oceans.

Integrative Taxonomic Revision of Goatfishes (Mullidae) in the Northern South China Sea Based on Morphology and Multilocus Molecular Data

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We performed an integrative taxonomic revision of Mullidae from the northern South China Sea using morphology and multilocus markers (COI, 16S rRNA, and IRBP) based on 283 specimens. Morphology identified 18 species in three genera, with PCA showing intergeneric differentiation mainly driven by depth‐related and head‐related traits despite partial ...

Introduction to the special issue on the Hualien earthquake swarms

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2022
The Hualien city is located near the pole of rotation induced by the along-strike transition from Ryukyu subduction to the collision between the Luzon arc and the Chinese continental margin in northeastern Taiwan (Rau et al., J Geophy Res 113: B09404 ...

Introduction to the special issue on tectonic environment and seabed resources of the southern Okinawa Trough

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2019
Okinawa Trough (OT) is a back-arc basin behind the Ryukyu arc-trench system and located along the eastern margin of the Eurasian continent. It extends from the southwest Kyushu Island to the Ilan Plain of Taiwan (Fig. 1).

Facies control on provenance shift during the early Cambrian transgression in Korea: Detrital zircon and geochemical evidence

open access: yesSedimentology, 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 ...

Can Hot and Cold Slabs Transport Water Into the Deep Mantle Beyond Subduction Zone Magmatism?

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The slab thermal state model predicts that only cold slabs should retain some of their intra‐slab water beyond subduction zones, while warmer slabs should be nearly dry past the volcanic arc front.

Punctuated growth of an accretionary prism and the onset of a seismogenic megathrust in the Nankai Trough

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2018
Ocean drilling in the Nankai Trough forearc suggests a new scenario for the evolution of the Nankai subduction zone. Continuous subduction since the Late Cretaceous has been a common tectonic scenario, although the plate subduction was transferred from ...
