Deep structure of the northeastern Japan arc and its relationship to seismic and volcanic activity

Evidence for possible deep-seated magmatic activity beneath northeastern Japan can be obtained from seismic observations. Observations reveal the distribution of magma reservoirs at depths and elucidate its relation with shallow seismicity beneath volcanic arcs.
