  1. Outer-trench sediments offshore Sumatra were drilled at Sites U1480 and U1481 during International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 362. This expedition aimed to drill the thick outer-trench sediments (up to 4–5 km) to better understand the mechanisms of shallow mega-thrust slip in the Sumatra subduction system. The iodine concentration dissolved in the interstitial water collected from these sites, ~250 km southwest of the subduction zone, was determined to understand the geochemical environment and iodine origin in the outer-trench sediment. The iodine concentrations increase with depth from seawater level to ~100 µM (270 times higher than seawater). In the outer-trench sediments offshore Sumatra, the iodine profile results from a complex process of the iodine-rich fluid derived from the basement, in situ iodine release caused by the decomposition of organic materials, and freshening due to mineral dehydration.
