الوصف: Abstract Topographic relief in arc-trench systems is thought to be formed by plate subduction; however, few quantitative investigations have so far been reported, with respect to the related mountain building process. This study applies apatite and zircon (U–Th)/He thermochronometry (AHe, ZHe, respectively) to Cretaceous granite rocks in the north part of the northeast (NE) Japan Arc to reveal its cooling/denudation history. Weighted mean AHe ages ranging from 88.6 to 0.9 Ma and ZHe ages from 83.9 to 7.4 Ma were determined for 10 rock samples. Using the AHe data, denudation rates were obtained for each sample. On the fore-arc side, denudation rates of 0.1–1.0 mm/year were computed, probably reflecting a recent uplift event since ~ 3–2 Ma. These data indicate a clear contrast in thermal and denudation histories between the tectonic units in this study area, similar to that previously reported from the southern part of NE Japan Arc. A comparison of the thermal/denudation histories between the N- and S- traverses, revealed the arc-parallel trend, the uplift model of the volcanic arc, and some minor variations of thermal/denudation histories in each tectonic unit. This study offers some further insights into the understanding of tectonic processes in an island-arc setting.
