Seismic Radial Anisotropy of the Southern Tibetan Rifts From Ambient Noise Adjoint Tomography: Basal Shear and Localized Crustal Weak Zones Promote Rifting

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract North–south‐trending rifts in southern Tibet record E–W extension within the Tibetan Plateau, closely linked to high gravitational potential energy from collisional thickening and northward underthrusting of the Indian lower crust. To reveal how basal shear is transmitted upward and controls rifting, we use ambient noise adjoint tomography ...

Abrupt Suppression of Tectonic Tremors Outside the Stress Shadow of Mendocino Earthquakes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Tectonic tremor is a long‐duration noise‐like seismic signal associated with slow fault motion at major plate boundaries. Due to their remarkable sensitivity to stress perturbations, tremors serve as invaluable probes of the mechanical state and stress conditions deep within fault zones.

Seismic Exploration for Magmatic Brine Lenses: An Example From Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract The majority of metallic ore deposits are related to processes associated with ancient or modern volcanic systems. Beyond geothermal energy production, volcanoes also represent a potential resource of critical metals, including those required for carbon‐neutral technologies. Geothermal metals occur in subsurface fluid reservoirs fed by surface

Competing Effects of Elastic Heterogeneity and Viscous Flow on Interseismic Coupling at Cascadia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Interseismic coupling maps are important tools for estimating future earthquake hazard at subduction zones. Often interseismic coupling is estimated from surface velocities using a homogeneous elastic Earth model. However, inversions that incorporate viscoelastic mantle flow or elastic heterogeneity show that each can change the spatial ...

Time‐dependent (Creep) Compaction in Volcanic Rocks

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Porous volcanic rocks form volcanic edifices and host key geothermal reservoirs worldwide. When subjected to constant stress above dilatancy in the brittle regime, these materials undergo time‐dependent failure known as brittle creep. In the ductile regime, where deformation is compactive, time‐dependent compaction—compaction creep—has been ...

Global Evidence for Off‐Axis Flexural Modification of Abyssal Hill Faults at Mid‐Ocean Ridges

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Young oceanic lithosphere flexes as axial topography decays across mid‐ocean ridge shoulders, yet this deformation has been quantified at only a few segments, leaving its global expression poorly constrained. We analyzed 50 across‐axis bathymetric profiles from 21 regions spanning slow to fast spreading rates, identified 1,201 abyssal‐hill ...
