Buried plutons, mostly offshore, produce belts of positive magnetic anomalies. These anomalies and magnetotelluric data suggest that the plutons form a batholith 70\u2013120 km wide, nearly 800 km long, and 10\u201315 km thick. The batholith may mark the location of the main Kitakami arc. Most of the exposed Kitakami plutons are 2\u201320 km in diameter; some are 3 km thick. The small plutons line up along NW trending faults; some may have been satellite vents that tapped into the magma supply of the main arc. The batholithic roots of the main arc now compose almost half of the modern Japan forearc basement. Steep magnetic gradients, offset anomalies, and basin stratigraphy portray extensive faulting of the Kitakami batholith during oblique subduction in the Late Cretaceous and rifting in the Miocene. The eastern boundary of the Kitakami batholith lies between 90 and 140 km west of the modern trench, much closer than the 300-km distance between the active arc and trench. The Early Cretaceous forearc basin and accretionary prism may underlie the modern forearc basin east of the batholith, but clear evidence is lacking. Much of the Early Cretaceous margin, including most of its forearc therefore is missing. How the material was removed is unknown: it could have been strike-slip faulted, eroded by subduction-related processes, or both.", "description": "21 p.", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "American Geophysical Union" }, "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Finn, Carol A. cfinn@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Carol A.", "familyName": "Finn", "email": "cfinn@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-6178-0405", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6178-0405" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Crustal Geophysics and Geochemistry Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/geology-energy-and-minerals-science-center" } ] } ], "spatialCoverage": [ { "@type": "Place", "additionalType": "country", "name": "Japan", "url": "https://geonames.org/4392339" }, { "@type": "Place", "geo": [ { "@type": "GeoShape", "additionalProperty": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "GeoJSON", "value": { "type": "FeatureCollection", "features": [ { "type": "Feature", "properties": {}, "geometry": { "coordinates": [ [ [ 138.5858445616867, 45.50873646911339 ], [ 138.5858445616867, 34.718873519249016 ], [ 144.1924469394902, 34.718873519249016 ], [ 144.1924469394902, 45.50873646911339 ], [ 138.5858445616867, 45.50873646911339 ] ] ], "type": "Polygon" } } ] } } }, { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": 40.1138049941812, "longitude": 141.38914575058845 } ] } ] }
