Dynamic changes in the global market demand affect ship development. Correspondingly, big data have provided the ability to comprehend the current and future conditions in numerous sectors and understand the dynamic circumstances of the maritime industry. Therefore, we have developed a basic ship-planning support system utilizing big data in maritime logistics. Previous studies have used a ship allocation algorithm, which only...

Hydrothermal circulation beneath the spreading axis plays a significant role in the exchange of energy and mass between the solid Earth and the oceans. Deep‐seated hydrothermal circulation down to the crust/mantle boundary in the fast‐spreading axis has been introduced by a number of studies regarding geological investigations and numerical models. In order to assess a reaction between hydrothermal fluid and host rock around t...

The Himalayas are a key location for understanding centennial‐ to millennial‐scale variations in the Asian monsoon, yet few studies of the late Holocene have been conducted in this sensitive area. Direct evidence for shifts in monsoonal wind strength is often limited to marine proxy records, while terrestrial reconstructions (e.g. lake levels and spleothems) focus on precipitation. Here, we present the first evidence of terres...
