Paleogeographic maps of the Japanese Islands: Plate tectonic synthesis from 750 Ma to the present Tập 6 Số 1 - Trang 121-142 - 1997
Shigenori Maruyama, Yukio Isozaki, Gaku Kimura, Masaru Terabayashi
Abstract A series of paleogeographic maps of the Japanese Islands, from their
birth at ca 750–700 Ma to the present, is newly compiled from the viewpoint of
plate tectonics. This series consists of 20 maps that cover all of the major
events in the geotectonic evolution of Japan. These include the birth of Japan
at the rifted continental margin of the Yangtze craton (ca 750‐700 Ma), the
tectonic in... hiện toàn bộ
The seismogenic zone of subduction thrust faults Tập 6 Số 3 - Trang 244-260 - 1997
R. D. Hyndman, Makoto Yamano, D. A. Oleskevich
Abstract Subduction thrust faults generate earthquakes over a limited depth
range. They are aseismic in their seaward updip portions and landward downdip of
a critical point. The seaward shallow aseismic zone, commonly beneath accreted
sediments, may be a consequence of unconsolidated sediments, especially
stable‐sliding smectite clays. Such clays are dehydrated and the fault may
become seismogeni... hiện toàn bộ
The Heilongjiang Group: A Jurassic accretionary complex in the Jiamusi Massif at the western Pacific margin of northeastern China Tập 16 Số 1 - Trang 156-172 - 2007
Fu‐Yuan Wu, Jin‐Hui Yang, Ching‐Hua Lo, Simon A. Wilde, Deyou Sun, Bor–ming Jahn
Abstract The tectonic setting of the Eastern Asian continental margin in the
Jurassic is highly controversial. In the current study, we have selected the
Heilongjiang complex located at the western margin of the Jiamusi Massif in
northeastern China for geochronological investigation to address this issue.
Field and petrographic investigations indicate that the Heilongjiang complex is
composed pre... hiện toàn bộ
Zircon U–Pb ages and tectonic implications of ‘Early Paleozoic’ granitoids at Yanbian, Jilin Province, northeast China Tập 13 Số 4 - Trang 484-505 - 2004
Yanbin Zhang, Fu‐Yuan Wu, Simon A. Wilde, Mingguo Zhai, Xuehong Lu, Deyou Sun
Abstract The Yanbian area is located in the eastern part of the Central Asian
Orogenic Belt (CAOB) of China and is characterized by widespread Phanerozoic
granitic intrusions. It was previously thought that the Yanbian granitoids were
mainly emplaced in the Early Paleozoic (so‐called ‘Caledonian’ granitoids),
extending east–west along the northern margin of the North China craton.
However, few of... hiện toàn bộ
What controls the lateral variation of large earthquake occurrence along the Japan Trench? Tập 6 Số 3 - Trang 261-266 - 1997
Yuichiro Tanioka, Larry J. Ruff, Kenji Satake
Abstract The lateral (along trench axis) variation in the mode of large
earthquake occurrence near the northern Japan Trench is explained by the
variation in surface roughness of the subducting plate. The surface roughness of
the ocean bottom near the trench is well correlated with the large‐earthquake
occurrence. The region where the ocean bottom is smooth is correlated
with‘typical’large underth... hiện toàn bộ
New advances of seismic tomography and its applications to subduction zones and earthquake fault zones: A review Tập 10 Số 1 - Trang 68-84 - 2001
Dapeng Zhao
Abstract There have been significant advances in the theory and applications of
seismic tomography in the last decade. These include the refinements in the
model parameterization, 3‐D ray tracing, inversion algorithm, resolution and
error analyses, joint use of local, regional and teleseismic data, and the
addition of converted and reflected waves in the tomographic inversion.
Applications of the ... hiện toàn bộ
