About Kiichiro Kawamura

Kiichiro Kawamura, With an exceptional h-index of 20 and a recent h-index of 16 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Yamaguchi University, specializes in the field of Marine Geology.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Distribution of microplastics in bathyal-to hadal-depth sediments and transport process along the deep-sea canyon and the Kuroshio Extension in the Northwest Pacific

Identification of a large mud volcano field in the Hyuga-nada, northern end of the Ryukyu trench, offshore Japan

Ongoing persistent slope failures at the toe of a giant submarine slide in the Ryukyu Trench that generated the AD 1771 Meiwa Tsunami

Plastic after an extreme storm: the typhoon-induced response of micro-and mesoplastics in coastal waters

A Sedimentological Study of Turbidite Layers on a Deep–Sea Terrace in the Japan Trench

Tsunami-triggered dispersal and deposition of microplastics in marine environments and their use in dating recent turbidite deposits

Active sediment creep deformation on a deep-sea terrace in the Japan Trench

Massive occurrence of benthic plastic debris at the abyssal seafloor beneath the Kuroshio Extension, the North West Pacific
