The Nankai accretionary prism is divided into three segments: outer and inner wedges and their transition zone. These wedges reflect different aspects of wedge taper, internal …
Three depth‐converted and geologically interpreted seismic profiles provide a clear image of the offshore outer accretionary wedge associated with oblique subduction of the Pacific …
In the Nankai accretionary prism and its associated slope sediments early (pre-lithification) mechanical modification of mud induces preferred alignments of elongate or platy particles …
Abstract The 2011 Mw9. 0 Tohoku‐oki earthquake ruptured to the trench with maximum coseismic slip located on the shallow portion of the plate boundary fault. To investigate the …
Protothrusts mark the onset of deformation at the toe of large subduction accretionary wedges. They are recognized in seismic reflection sections as small-displacement (tens of …
