The concept of Pacific‐type orogeny is revised, based on an assessment of geologic data
collected from the Japanese Islands during the past 25 years. The formation of a passive …

Three-Dimensional Seismic Imaging ADS Classic is now deprecated. It will be completely
retired in October 2019. This page will automatically redirect to the new ADS interface at that …

Many studies recently made on the basis of seismic observations have revealed a detailed
structure of the crust and the upper mantle beneath the northeastern Japan arc and its …

Evidence for possible deep-seated magmatic activity beneath northeastern Japan can be
obtained from seismic observations. Tomographic inversions of P-wave velocity data show …

Transcription factor IIB (TFIIB) has a central role in transcription of class II genes. The
purification of the human TFIIB protein and isolation of a complementary DNA encoding …

Abstract The Sea of Japan back-arc system provides an exceptional opportunity to study a
virtually intact continent-ocean back-arc system in which recent tectonic inversion has …

More than 50,000 high‐accuracy arrival times from 1200 shallow and deep earthquakes
selected from the Japan University Network Earthquake Catalog are used to investigate the …

Recent seismic tomography of the Earth's mantle has revealed a large-scale pattern of
mantle convection comprising upwelling columnar plumes in the Pacific and Africa and …

We have imaged the upper mantle discontinuities in a 30× 20° large region at the active
continental margin of the Japan subduction zone and neighboring areas, using P-to-S …

Mt. Ontake is an active volcano in central Japan where phreatic eruption activity is
prominent. A shallow subsurface structure in the summit region of this volcano has been …
