Description This one-day field excursion aims to see deformation characteristics of ancient MTDs on the Boso Peninsula, central Japan. Many of map-scale MTDs (> a few tens of kilometers) developed just above the late Pliocene to Pleistocene Kurotaki Unconformity apparently formed in relation to the change in convergent direction of Philippine Sea Plate to the Amur Plate. Visiting three coastal outcrops is planned. Hope to enjoy beautiful structures and tectonic/mechanical discussions with participants.
