Announcement of Earth Science Week Japan（ESWJ）
Earth Science Week is annually held in the United States and other
parts of the world to promote public understanding and awareness
of earth science. Earth Science Week Japan (ESWJ), the Japanese
version of this event, will be held for the fifth time this year.
This year, ESWJ will be held for the fifth time. This year, ESWJ will
be held at the Fujinokuni Museum of Global Environmental History
and Shizuoka Science Museum Ru-Ku-Ru, as well as online.
The program will be held from October 10 (Mon., holiday) to
November 3 (Thu.), 2022.
The contents of the event will include a geological tour in Minobu,
Yamanashi Prefecture, fossil replica making, 3D map making, research
presentations by high school students, and others.

#5. Information from PEPS
(1) An announcement of PEPS new General-Chief-Editor and Section-Chief-Editor
Dr.Ryuji Tada (Chiba Institute of Technology) became new General-
Chief-Editor of PEPS, and Dr. Kazuhisa Goto (The University of Tokyo)
became new Section-Chief-Editor of Interdisciplinary research from
15th September. For the papers submitted by 15th September, former
General-Chief-Editor Dr.Ohtani and former Section-Chief-Editor Dr.Tada
(Interdisciplinary research) will continue to handle them.
(2) Featured Articles
We will introduce the featured articles selected by the editor-in-chief
from the papers published in the past every month.
@Yangting Lin:
Enstatite chondrites: condensation and metamorphism under extremely
reducing conditions and contributions to the Earth.
This is a review paper on enstatite chondrites which are a small clan
of meteorites, ~1% out of all meteorite collection. They are the most
reduced meteorites and have almost identical isotopic compositions to
those of the Earth, suggestive of significant contributions to the
Earth and other terrestrial planets. The highly reducing conditions
(as C/O ratios) might be established via repeating evaporation and
condensation of water ice and organic matter across the snow line
along the protoplanetary disk.

@Riho Fujioka, Ikuo Katayama et al.:
Depth profile of frictional properties in the inner Nankai accretionary
prism using cuttings from IODP Site C0002.
Using collected core sample obtained at Nankai Trough IODP Site
C0002 over 980.5-3262.5 mbsf (meters below seafloor) depth interval,
the authors conducted frictional experiments for the specimen with
50-m interval. They obtained depth profile on frictional properties
such as the friction coefficient (μ), the velocity dependence of
friction (a – b), and the critical slip distance (Dc).
