Call to Participate: Expedition 503: Hadal Trench Tsunamigenic Slip History
Call to Participate in IODP3 Expedition 503: Hadal Trench Tsunamigenic Slip History now open!
Expedition 503 plans to drill a trench basin in the central Japan Trench to recover the whole trench-fill sequence for dating and establishing event-stratigraphy for paleoseismologic interpretations and further investigations of earthquake related element cycles in hadal trench environment. Combining stratigraphy and chronology of thick event deposits, interstitial-water geochemistry proxy-data for past fluid flow pulses and core-to-seismic correlation to paleo-slip-to-trench events, this expedition will clarify how often the slip-to-trench events have occurred.
