Abstract

We conducted oxygen and hydrogen isotope measurements of clay mineral in a sediment core obtained from an active hydrothermal filed in the Okinawa Trough, in order to estimate subseafloor thermal gradient based on isotope geothermometry. We found very steep thermal gradient up to 20 degree/meter at the upper most layer of the altered zone.
