Potential of megathrust earthquakes along the southern Ryukyu Trench inferred from GNSS data [PDF]
Earth, Planets and Space, 2021 The southern part of the Ryukyu subduction zone has recorded tsunami events with a recurrence interval of several hundred years. Although their source is controversial, one model suggests that the last 1771 Yaeyama tsunami was caused by a shallow ...

Comparative Physiology and Genomics of Thermincola and Carboxydocella Strains and Description of Two Novel Isolates. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiolTwo novel thermophilic bacteria, Thermincola strain AZ34E and Carboxydocella strain AZ29I, were isolated from hydrothermal environments and shown to oxidise carbon monoxide via the water‐gas shift reaction. Comparative genomic and phylogenetic analyses revealed that all currently described isolates within Thermincola and Carboxydocella each represent a

Slab Pull Drives IBM Trench Advance Despite the Weakened Philippine Sea Plate
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The mechanism behind the significant Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana (IBM) trench advance is still controversial. We conduct slab subduction numerical models that reproduce the spatio‐temporal tectonic evolution of the Philippine Sea region to investigate whether slab

Variations in the crustal structure and strength of plate coupling along the Ryukyu subduction zone
Geoscience Letters, 2023 The Ryukyu trench-arc-back arc system is part of the subduction margins of the Philippine Sea plate. Previous studies have indicated that several geophysical and geological characteristics reveal significant variations (including convergent rate ...
