Strike-slip motion of a mega-splay fault system in the Nankai oblique subduction zone
We evaluated the influence of the trench-parallel component of plate motion on the active fault system within the Nankai accretionary wedge from reflection seismic profiles, high-resolution seafloor bathymetry, and deep-towed sub-bottom profiles. Our study demonstrated that a large portion of the trench-parallel component of oblique plate subduction is released by strike-slip motion along a fau...

متن کاملPetrogenesis of mantle peridotites from the South of Jazmourian, Makran accretionary prism, Iran
Mantle peridotites exposed in south Jazmourian comprise of lherzolite and porphyroclastic Cpx-bearing harzburgite in the lower part with chromitite lenses in the upper parts. Petrography and microprobe studies shows evidence of melt-peridotite interactions; post melting processes and subsolidus interactions, which has been associated with appearance of two generations of deformed primary pyroxe...
متن کاملBiogas production using anaerobic groundwater containing a subterranean microbial community associated with the accretionary prism
In a deep aquifer associated with an accretionary prism, significant methane (CH₄) is produced by a subterranean microbial community. Here, we developed bioreactors for producing CH₄ and hydrogen (H₂) using anaerobic groundwater collected from the deep aquifer. To generate CH₄, the anaerobic groundwater amended with organic substrates was incubated in the bioreactor. At first, H₂ was detected a...
متن کاملComputed Tomography (ct) Scan Image Analysis of Site 808 Cores: Structural and Physical Property Implications
X-ray computed tomography (CT) is a promising tool that yields data useful for understanding the fine-scale density structure of partly lithified and tectonically deformed sediments. We conducted 21 CT scans of ODP Leg 131 sediments, including whole-round cores and thin-section chips, obtained from the toe of the Nankai accretionary prism. The samples range from highly deformed pieces from the ...
