Name (first, family): Juichiro Ashi Education: 1981-1985 Department of Earth Science, Kobe University Awarded the degree of BSc 1985-1987 Department of Earth Science, Kobe University Awarded the degree of MSc 1987-1991 Geological Institute, the University of Tokyo Awarded the degree of DSc in structural geology for a thesis entitled "Structure and Hydrogeology of the Nankai Accretionary Prism". Research and Professional Experience: 1991-1993 Post-Doctoral Fellow of JSPS (Japan Society for the Promotion of Science) at the Ocean Research Institute, the University of Tokyo 1993-2001 Research Associate at the Geological Institute, the University of Tokyo. 2001-present Associate Professor at the Ocean Research Institute, the University of Tokyo Membership of Academic Societies: American Geophysical Union The Seismological Society of Japan The Technical Experience: 1. Physical property: I participated in Ocean Drilling Program Legs 146 and 156 as a physical properties specialist. My shorebased study focused on tectonic dewatering and drilling disturbance on the basis of X-ray CT-scan analysis. 2. Marine geology: I often join in research cruise for piston coring, seismic reflection survey and seafloor swath mapping. My doctor thesis is concerned with prism growth and thermal structure of the Nankai accretionary prism derived from sidescan imagery and gas hydrate BSRs, respectively. I also use submersibles for investigation of seafloor sedimentary and deformation structures. 3. Structural geology: I have studied Cretaceous and Tertiary accretionary complexes in Japan to understand process of wet-sediment deformations since BSc course.
