Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hydrothermal vents can serve as natural laboratories to study speciation processes due to their fragmented distribution, often with geographic barriers between habitats. Two sympatric species of Rimicaris shrimps occur at vents on the Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana volcanic arc: Rimicaris loihi also occurs near Hawai’i and R.

Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite high convergence velocity, the southern Ryukyu subduction has relatively low and sparse instrumental seismicity, in contrast with the Yaeyama Islands, hit by huge tsunamis over the last few thousand years. This study explores the potential of deep marine sediments to record past large earthquakes and tsunamis.

Heavy solution methord for determination of volcanic glass content in tephras and tephra-derived soils [PDF]
Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 1990 Abstract Volcanic glass is the most important primary mineral for the tephra-derived soils because it is the most abundant and the most weatherable among the primary minerals. The chemical properties of volcanic glass in tephras are closely related to the rock types of tephras (Kobayashi et al.

Revised calendar date for the Taupo eruption derived by ¹⁴C wiggle-matching using a New Zealand kauri ¹⁴C calibration data set [PDF]
, 2011 Taupo volcano in central North Island, New Zealand, is the most frequently active and productive rhyolite volcano on Earth. Its latest explosive activity about 1800 years ago generated the spectacular Taupo eruption, the most violent eruption known in ...
