Internally heated convection beneath a poor conductor
We consider convection in an internally heated (IH) layer of fluid that is bounded below by a perfect insulator and above by a poor conductor. The poorly conducting boundary is modelled by a fixed heat flux. Using solely analytical methods, we find linear and energy stability thresholds for the static state, and we construct a lower bound on the mean temperature that applies to all flows. The l...
متن کاملAnelastic properties beneath the Niigata–Kobe Tectonic Zone, Japan
We estimate the three-dimensional (3D) P-wave attenuation structure beneath the Niigata–Kobe Tectonic Zone (NKTZ), central Japan, using high-quality waveform data from a large number of stations. The obtained results confirm the segmentation of the NKTZ into three regions, as suggested by 3D seismic velocity models, and reveal characteristic structures related to surface deformation, shallow su...
متن کاملGenetic structure and cryptic diversity of Onychodactylus japonicus (Amphibia, Caudata, Hynobiidae) in northeastern Honshu, Japan, as revealed by allozymic analysis.
We conducted a comprehensive allozymic analysis of 393 specimens of the Japanese clawed salamander, Onychodactylus japonicus, from 33 populations of northeastern Honshu, Japan. As a result, these populations exhibited extensive geographic genetic differentiation, and four major genetic groups (N-Tohoku, S-Tohoku, Tsukuba, and SW-Honshu groups) were consistently recognized. Of these, the Tsukuba...
متن کاملTemporal variation of seismic b-values beneath northeastern Japan island arc
[1] Analysis of a high quality seismic catalog reveals that the average of seismic b-values in the crust beneath most part of northeastern Japan island arc decreased from 0.86 between 1984 and 1990, to 0.73 between 1991 and 1995. The two areas with the largest decrease are found to be in the same areas where the coupling between the North American and the Pacific plates is the highest, as sugge...
متن کاملGround Shaking and Seismic Source Spectra for Large Earthquakes around the Megathrust Fault Offshore of Northeastern Honshu, Japan
Large earthquake ruptures on or near the plate boundary megathrust fault offshore of northeastern Honshu, Japan, produce variable levels of regional highfrequency ground shaking. Analyses of 0.1–10 Hz strong ground motion recordings from K-NETand KiK-net stations and 0.3–3.0 Hz short-period recordings from Hi-net stations establish that the shaking variations result from a combination of differ...
