We investigated the active tectonic deformation in Java using Global Positioning System (GPS) velocity data from 2008 to 2013. We calculated strain rate and estimate that, in general, Java ...experiences a large strain rate (> 1 microstrain/yr) with an extensional strain (∼5 microstrain/yr) associated with the ongoing postseismic deformation of the 2006 Java tsunami earthquake. A large compressional dilatation rate fault zone (< -3 microstrain/yr) was estimated along the Cimandiri and Cipamingkis faults in West Java, Jakarta fault in Jakarta, Kendeng fault extending from Central Java to the east up to the Madura Strait, and volcanic activity in Banten and Yogyakarta. A large maximum shear strain rate (> 1 microstrain/yr) was estimated along the Wongsorejo and the Montong faults in East Java, and the Lasem fault in Central Java. We show that our strain rate estimation is able to identify active tectonic regions in Java.
A rich and sensitive portrait of a changing peasantry, this study is also a general inquiry into the nature of status, class, and community in the developing world. Robert Hefner presents an analysis ...designed to bridge the gap between village studies and social history. He describes the forces that have shaped upland politics and society from pre-colonial times to the Green Revolution today.
Sugar, Steam and Steel is about cane sugar and the transformation of an Indonesian island into the Oriental Cuba during the middle decades of the nineteenth century. Between the 1830s and the 1880s, ...sweetener manufacture in Dutch-controlled Java the crown jewel of the erstwhile Netherlands Indies drew decisively away in matters of technology and sugar science from other Asian centres of production which had once equaled or, more often, surpassed it in terms of both output and know-how. Along with its larger and altogether more famous Caribbean counterpart, Java s industry came to occupy a position at the apex of the trade in what had become by this date a key global commodity.
It is generally accepted that the subduction polarity reversal (SPR) results from the strong collision of two plates. Yet, the SPR of the Solomon Back‐arc Basin is started in the “soft docking” ...stage, and the mechanism by which the “soft docking” induced subduction initiation (SI) remains elusive. We find that the mass depletion of the plateau influences the evolution of the subduction patterns during SI. And the island arc rheological strength affects the development of the shear zone between an island arc and back‐arc basin which favors SI. What's more, with the increase of the rheological strength difference, the SI is more easily to occur, and the contribution of the plateau collision to SI weakens. Hence, by combining the available geological evidence, we suggest that the Solomon Island Arc rheological strength and the Ontong‐Java plateau collision jointly controlled the SI during the “soft docking” stage.
Plain Language Summary
Plateau collision has been considered an important factor for the subduction initiation (SI). However, the SI of the Solomon Sea Basin occurred during the “soft docking” stage, which is unique from the traditional understanding of SI. Our numerical model shows that the rheological strength difference between the SIA and the Solomon Sea Basin results in the conjugate shear zone with a high strain rate during the “soft docking” stage. The conjugate shear zone with a high strain rate as a natural weak zone is conducive to inducing SI. Moreover, while the SI (the San Cristobal Trench) occurs, the OJP likes a “wall” has resulted in the uplift of the SIA and the distinct evolution of subduction patterns.
Key Points
The subduction initiation at the SSB results from joint contributions of both SIA rheological strength and OJP collision
The island arc affects the development of shear zone between an island arc and back‐arc basin, which favors subduction initiation
The mass depletion of the lithospheric mantle in the OJP influences the evolution of subduction patterns after subduction initiation
