| In 2000, a 3D MCS survey was carried out on the Eastern Nankai Trough. A strong and widespread bottom-simulating reflector (BSR) was observed and mapped after a preserved amplitude 3D prestack migration of the seismic data. We use this BSR to calculate a heat flow map over the 3D survey area. This map presents some high and low heat flow areas, that cannot be correlated to known active wedge faults and previously observed fluid venting sites. Since the heat flow anomalies are not correlated to known major faults or fluid venting sites, large fluid circulation is not likely to explain the varying BSR-derived heat flow distribution. In order to explain this heat flow distribution quantitatively, we calculate the rates of erosion and sedimentation that are... |

| The HAkon Mosby Mud Volcano (HMMV), located on the Norwegian-Barents-Svalbard continental margin in 1250 m water depth, has been identified and described as a structure caused by upward transport of mud, pore water and gas [e.g. Eldhohn, O., Sundvor, E., Vogt, P.R., Hjelstuen, B.O., Crane, K., Nilsen, A.K., Gladczenko, T.P., 1999. SW Barents Sea continental margin heat flow and HAkon Mosby Volcano. Geo-Marine Letters 19, 29-37]. During R V Polarstern expedition ARK XIX/3b in 2003, an integrated study took place to investigate the detailed morphology, biology, chemistry and geophysical aspects of HMMV [Kiages, M., Thiede, J., Foucher, J.-P., 2004. The Expeditions ARK XIX 3a, 3b and 3c, Berichte zur Polarforschung, 488.]. In this paper, we describe a... |

| Attenuation of seismic waves in the crust and the upper mantle has been studied in three global rift systems: the Baikal rift system (Eurasia), the North Tanzanian divergence zone (Africa) and the Basin and Range Province (North America). Using the records of direct and coda waves of regional earthquakes, the single scattering theory [Aki, Chouet, 1975], the hybrid model from [Zeng, 1991] and the approach described in [Wennerberg, 1993], we estimated the seismic quality factor (QC), frequency parameter (n), attenuation coefficient (delta), and total attenuation (QT). In addition, we evaluated the contributions of two components into total attenuation: intrinsic attenuation (Qi), and scattering attenuation (Qsc). Values of QC are strongly dependent on the... |

| We analyze available heat flow data from the flanks of the Southeast Indian Ridge adjacent to or within the Australian-Antarctic Discordance (AAD), an area with patchy sediment cover and highly fractured seafloor as dissected by ridge- and fracture-parallel faults. The data set includes 23 new data points collected along a 14-Ma old isochron and 19 existing measurements from the 20- to 24-Ma old crust. Most sites of measurements exhibit low heat flux (from 2 to 50 mW m(-2)) with near-linear temperature-depth profiles except at a few sites, where recent bottom water temperature change may have caused nonlinearity toward the sediment surface. Because the igneous basement is expected to outcrop a short distance away from any measurement site, we hypothesize... |

| The Western Mediterranean basin has been formed by Miocene back-arc extension and is underlain by a thin and young lithosphere. This young lithosphere is warm, as testified by an overall elevated offshore heat flow. Heat flow within the Western Mediterranean is, however, highly variable and existing data are unevenly distributed and poorly studied in the central part of the Liguro-Provençal and Algero-Balearic basins. This central part is floored by a young oceanic crust, bordered by different continental margins, cut by transform faults, and filled by up to 8 km of sediments. We present a total of 148 new heat flow data collected during the MedSalt and WestMedFlux cruises in 2015 and 2016 and aligned along seven regional profiles that show an important... |

| Marine transform faults and associated fracture zones (MTFFZs) cover vast stretches of the ocean floor, where they play a key role in plate tectonics, accommodating the lateral movement of tectonic plates and allowing connections between ridges and trenches. Together with the continental counterparts of MTFFZs, these structures also pose a risk to human societies as they can generate high magnitude earthquakes and trigger tsunamis. Historical examples are the Sumatra-Wharton Basin Earthquake in 2012 (M8.6) and the Atlantic Gloria Fault Earthquake in 1941 (M8.4). Earthquakes at MTFFZs furthermore open and sustain pathways for fluid flow triggering reactions with the host rocks that may permanently change the rheological properties of the oceanic... |
