Seismic Constraints on Igneous Intrusions and Fluid/Gas Distribution in a Continental Back‐Arc System: Evidence From the Yaeyama Rift in the Southern Okinawa Trough

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The geometry and distribution of igneous intrusions, which define melt source locations and record syn‐emplacement stress conditions, are essential for understanding tectonic and magmatic processes associated with crustal extension. However, in back‐arc settings along continental margins, structural constraints on these features remain poorly ...

Palaeoseismological evidence of the 1570 Ferrara earthquake

, 2014
The May 20, 2012 Emilia earthquake (Mw = 6.1) produced secondary ground deformation effects, mainly associated with liquefaction phenomena, in several parts of the epicentral region, but particularly concentrated in the western sector of the Ferrara ...

Prediction of Complex Observed Shear Wave Splitting Patterns at Ryukyu Subduction Zone Using a Strong Intra‐Slab Anisotropy Model

Geophysical Research Letters
Complex shear wave splitting (SWS) patterns in subduction zones are often interpreted geodynamically as resulting from complex mantle flow; however, this may not always be necessary.

The Sub-Crustal Stress Field in the Taiwan Region

Terrestrial, 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.

Male Dimorphism in a New Species of Cockroach Nocticola glenniei sp. nov. (Blattodea: Nocticolidae) Commensal Within Burrows of Macropanesthia rhinoceros Saussure, 1895 (Blattodea: Blaberidae)

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Polyphenism, where individuals of the same species exhibit distinct physical or behavioural forms, is widespread across insects. Although well studied in charismatic beetles and eusocial insects such as termites and bees, only a few minor cases of male dimorphism have been reported in non‐termite cockroaches. Here, we describe a new species of

Atribacteria from the Subseafloor Sedimentary Biosphere Disperse to the Hydrosphere through Submarine Mud Volcanoes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Submarine mud volcanoes (SMVs) are formed by muddy sediments and breccias extruded to the seafloor from a source in the deep subseafloor and are characterized by the discharge of methane and other hydrocarbon gasses and deep-sourced fluids into the ...

Highlands, Islands and the Evolutionary Impact of Founder Event Dispersal in Sinomicrurus Coralsnakes

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Island archipelagos and montane regions of East and Southeast Asia represent some of the world's most biodiverse yet poorly understood biogeographic systems. Whether regional diversity accumulates primarily through in situ speciation, dispersal‐mediated range shifts, or some combination of these processes remains unclear.

Assessing relational values of sacred landscapes through text mining of folktales: Insights from the Ryukyu Islands, Japan

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2383-2392, July 2026.
Abstract Assessing relational values of nature through its cultural and spiritual significance is crucial for effective nature conservation. Folktales offer insights into traditional relationships between people and nature, and text mining is a powerful tool for extracting information from textual datasets.

Multi-trench Fiber for high power laser applications

, 2014
Optical fibers have realized their immense potential for high power applications in the last decade. However, non-linearity still remains a challenge for power scaling for fiber lasers [1].

Magmatism and tectonism in the Ryukyu Arc and Okinawa Trough revealed by the Japan Coast Guard’s AUV high-resolution mapping.

, 2021
The Ryukyu subduction zone in the Western Pacific, extending from Japan to Taiwan, forms a typical trench （Ryukyu Trench）-arc （Ryukyu Arc）-back-arc basin （Okinawa Trough） system.
