Abstract. Geomagnetic depth soundings have been made in the area covering Kyushu island and its neighboring islands in the western sea of Kyushu to investigate the back-arc conductivity structure. The in-phase induction arrows derived from geomagnetic variations are found to point roughly southwestwards at most sites on Kyushu island for the period range 300-7200 sec. This is quite different from some other areas of Japan.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
