new updates regarding the 2022 meeting at
https://www.jpgu.org/meeting_e2022/news/news20220112_02.html
* It is possible that we may have to cancel the on-site meeting.
In that case, there will be no on-site poster presentation, but all
oral sessions and online poster sessions will be held online
following the original schedule and program.
(2) Abstract Submission is Now being Accepted!
Abstract submission opens: Jan 12 (Wed) at 2PM JST
Early submission deadline: Feb 3 (Thu) at 11:59PM JST
Final abstract submission deadline: Feb 17 (Thu) at 5PM JST
* Early-bird submission rate applies to the submissions paid by the
early deadline on Feb 3 at 11:59PM JST. Please note that standard
rate applies automatically after this date.
* All the poster presentations are to be made available online. In
addition, if you wish to make a poster presentation at the local
venue, please indicate your intention to do so at the time of abstract
submission. The poster boards will be prepared based on the number
of requests received there. Only poster presentations that have
been accepted and have shown the intention to present at the local
venue at the time of abstract submission will be able to be presented
at the local venue. If you are not sure whether you can present
on-site at this point, please indicate that you wish to do so.
[To submit your abstract: click “abstract submission” tab after
logging in to the JpGU members site]
https://www.jpgu-member.org/jpgu/en/
[Details on abstract submission are available below]
https://www.jpgu.org/meeting_e2022/
We look forward to receiving many abstracts!
(3) Release of Poster Core Time of the Online Poster Session Phase
The core time of the online poster session phase has been made
available.
[Schedule of the online poster session phase]
https://www.jpgu.org/meeting_e2022/files/online_poster_schedule_0112_e.pdf
In principle, the core time during the Online Poster session phase
(May 29 – June 3) will be held every day from 11:00am to 1:00pm.
Each session is scheduled on a different day of the week (shifted
by a day) based on the onsite poster core time allotted during the
hybrid phase. This is to reduce the burden on the participants and
to minimize the impact on the regular work schedule such as lectures.
*For some sessions, we have changed the day of the session based on
the requests of the conveners.
*In consideration of the global time difference, only the sessions
adopted as joint sessions may have been assigned to be held in the
AM slot (9:00am-11:00am JST) or PM slot (4:00pm-6:00pm JST) based
on the requests from conveners.

#6. #. Information from PEPS
(1) Review Articles collection
PEPS promotes Review Articles which may serve as useful contents of
summaries of the newest developments in the wide fields of Earth and
Planetary Science.
We have now made available the collection of the abstracts of the
published PEPS Review Articles.
https://japangeoscienceunion.github.io/PEPS/PEPS_ReviewAbstract_eng.pdf
We hope you will walk through this collection and find useful for your
research interest.
(2) Featured Articles
We will introduce the featured articles selected by the editor-in-chief
from the papers published in the past every month.
@ Chunyu Ding et al.: Geomorphometric characterisation of natural and
anthropogenic land covers.
(https://doi.org/10.1186/10.1186/s40645-019-0314-x )
Anthropogenic and natural land cover morphological characteristics
were statistically detected from LiDAR-derived digital terrain model
(DTM) topographic quantities, showing the potential for quantifying
anthropogenic impacts.
＠Ikuo Katayama: Strength models of the terrestrial planets and
implications for their lithospheric structure and evolution.
(https://doi.org/10.1186/s40645-020-00388-2)
In this review paper, strength profiles of lithosphere were calculated
for each planet using a recently updated flow law and taking into
account the effect of water on lithospheric deformation.
@ Shota Amekawa et al.: Stalagmite evidence for East Asian winter
monsoon variability and 18O-depleted surface water in the Japan Sea
during the last glacial period.
(https://doi.org/10.1186/s40645-021-00409-8)
Oxygen isotope ratios (δ18O) of a stalagmite formed during the last
glacial period (32.2-22.3 ka) are lower than those of a Holocene one
in Fukugaguchi Cave, Itoigawa City, Niigata Prefecture. The lower
δ18O values were most likely resulted from 18O-depleted surface
water due to riverine input, which developed in the isolated Japan
Sea.
(3) Latest Articles
The following articles were published. You can download and read
interesting articles from the PEPS web site at:

mechanical properties due to the collision of multiple basement
topographic highs in a forearc accretionary wedge: insights from
