| Research Abstract |
From the detailed magnetotelluric observations around the Naruko volcano in the central NE Japan arc, we analyzed three-dimensional resistivity structure of the crust and the upper mantle. We found sub-vertical conductors beneath active volcanoes, Naruko and Onikobe, which imply existence of saline fluid reservoir. In the upper mantle, we imaged a conductor on top of the down-going plate. The conductor extends towards the Moho under the backbone ranges. We also found that it also has a branch toward west beneath volcanoes along the Japan Sea. From the experimental resistivity measurements of a fluid bearing rocks under lower crustal conditions, we found that those crustal conductors, found by magnetotelluric measurements, need high salinity fluids.
