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

Ecology 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 ...

Geodetic Evidence of Shallow Slow‐Slip Phenomena Beneath the Southern Ryukyu Forearc

Geophysical Research Letters
While slow slip events (SSEs) are recognized as a ubiquitous phenomenon in subduction zones, accurately tracking the spatiotemporal distribution of shallow SSEs remains challenging.

The Covid‐19 Pandemic and Pre‐Existing Migration Infrastructures: Differentiated Impacts on Nepali Migrants in Japan

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 92-103, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic disproportionately affected international migrants worldwide. However, not all international migrants were uniformly impacted. While much of the literature has focused on the pandemic's effects on migrants relative to citizens, the impacts faced by different groups of migrants remain less understood.

Long-term activity change in Very low-frequency earthquakes in the south Ryukyu Trench

, 2023
Very low-frequency earthquakes (VLFEs) occurred regularly along the south Ryukyu Trench. The activity was concentrated at the slab depth of 10-20 km along the trench axis. The VLFEs occurred every two to three months for a few days in a seismic swarm.

Shear wave splitting from local events beneath the Ryukyu arc: Trench-parallel anisotropy in the mantle wedge

Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 2006
We present shear wave splitting measurements from local slab earthquakes at eight seismic stations of the Japanese F-net array located in the Ryukyu arc. We obtained high-quality splitting measurements for 70 event-station pairs and found that the majority of the measured fast directions were parallel to the strike of the trench and perpendicular to ...

The 23 June 2014 Mw 7.9 Rat Islands archipelago, Alaska, intermediate depth earthquake [PDF]

, 2014
On 23 June 2014, the largest intermediate depth earthquake (M_w 7.9) of the last 100 years ruptured within the subducting Pacific plate about 100 km below the Rat Islands archipelago of the Western Aleutian Islands, Alaska.

Upper Mantle Heterogeneity and Weak Subduction Boundaries Control Crustal Stress in the Korean Peninsula

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Most earthquakes occur at plate boundaries, but some also strike within stable continental interiors. Although dominant causes of such intraplate earthquakes remain elusive, a prevailing hypothesis attributes intraplate stress and seismicity to variations in lithospheric thickness.
