Transient crustal movement in the northern Izu–Bonin arc starting in 2004: A large slow slip event or a slow back-arc rifting event?

Tsunami Scenarios Based on Interseismic Models Along the Nankai Trough, Japan, From Seafloor and Onshore Geodesy

“…We reprocessed these data using the open source software RTKLIB v2.4.2 (available at http://www.rtklib.com/) in the static Precise Point Positioning mode. The velocity was derived from the data between 2000 November and 2004 July (Figures and and Table S1), because the campaigns in 2000 August and after 2004 September were possibly affected by the volcanic events in the northern Izu islands (e.g., Nishimura et al, ) and the transient slip in the Izu‐Bonin arc (Arisa & Heki, ), respectively. The velocity of 4.6 cm/year toward the west was comparable with the velocity of 4.7 cm/year toward the west at TOK1.…”

Deep-Sea Trenches of the Pacific Ocean: A Comparative Analysis of the Submarine Geomorphology Using Data Modeling by Gmt, Python and R

“…The matrices correlation for tectonic plates were executed by {Ggally}, {data.table} and {ggplot2} libraries. The matrix of Pearson correlation coefficients between each of the random variables in a given dataset, closely related to the covariance matrix is defined by Formula 3.8.18: 18) where diag(K XX ) is the diagonal matrix X i of the variances (diagonal elements) of K XX for i = 1, . .…”

“…South tended data distribution is characterized for lithology types basic-ultrabasic plutonic rocks (Pb) where data are recorded for the profiles Nr. 12,[18][19]21,[23][24][25], that is on the southern part of the Philippine archipelago. The metamorphic rocks (M) are noted across the profiles 23-25, 4, 6, 15-16, that is their distribution is more evenly spread across the study area.…”

“…Generally, the major part of the area has geoid values range of 25 to 35 mGal. The increased values (>35 to 85 mGal) can be seen on the south-eastern part in the Philippine Sea area, while lower values (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25) bordering continental shelf stretch along the East China Sea and the lowest (<15 m Gal) mainly occupy land areas.…”

“…10 [415] (jitter plot). The profiles with the least slope degree (21,22,18,20) are located in the S segments where trench crosses Caroline Plate. The depth values >-9600 m BSL prevails on the bathymetric model for the deepest depth range, representing depths of the very steep slopes of the trench.…”
