The southern Whidbey Island fault: An active structure in the Puget Lowland, Washington The southern Whidbey Island fault: An active structure in the Puget Lowland, Washington
Information from seismic-reflection profiles, outcrops, boreholes, and potential field surveys is used to interpret the structure and history of the southern Whidbey Island fault in the Puget Lowland of western Washington. This northwest-trending fault comprises a broad (as wide as 6–11 km), steep, northeast-dipping zone that includes several splays with inferred strike-slip, reverse...

Introduction to the special section northeast Japan: A case history of subduction Introduction to the special section northeast Japan: A case history of subduction
Subduction-related tectonic events such as strike-slip faulting, uplift of high-pressure metamorphic rocks in the forearc, back arc spreading, arc magmatism, and continental collisions have shaped northeast Japan, making it a case history for subduction. Much of the record of these events is preserved and can be used to reconstruct the tectonic history of the region. Although many...

Aeromagnetic evidence for a buried Early Cretaceous magmatic arc, northeast Japan Aeromagnetic evidence for a buried Early Cretaceous magmatic arc, northeast Japan
Positive aeromagnetic anomalies, recent drilling, and models constructed from these data delineate the plutonic roots of the Early Cretaceous Kitakami magmatic arc in northeast Japan. Buried plutons, mostly offshore, produce belts of positive magnetic anomalies. These anomalies and magnetotelluric data suggest that the plutons form a batholith 70–120 km wide, nearly 800 km long, and 10...
