Comparison of porosity data from (A) LWD and laboratory MAD measurement and (B) LWD porosity models with increasing depth. Porosity data derived from the LWD bit resistivity below 900 meters below the sea floor (mbsf) just above unconformity between the Kumano Basin sediments and the old accretionary sediments fit well with the exponential function of Athy's law (Athy 1930) and within the range of accretionary wedges worldwide, which were compiled with core data acquired in Deep Sea Drilling Program (DSDP) and Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) cruises in addition to porosity estimated from seismic data (Bray and Karig 1985; Moore and Saffer 2001).
