Comparison of Vp models for island arc crusts around Japan. Vp models in this study are shown on the left. Examples of intra-oceanic island arcs include the southern Kyushu-Palau Ridge (Nishizawa et al. 2007) (top right panel) and the Izu-Ogasawara island arc (Nishizawa et al. 2006) (middle right panel). Simplified models for Japan island arc are illustrated in the bottom right panel (modified from Iwasaki and Sato 2009).
