Rare Synchronization Among Recurring Earthquakes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Earthquakes are notoriously irregular, yet occasionally neighboring faults rupture in close succession, repeatedly, as if synchronized. Over successive cycles, differences in recurrence intervals, overall irregularity and external stressors should all drive neighboring faults out of phase.

Onset of Thrusting at ca. 23 Ma in East Kunlun Mountains, Northern Tibet, Recorded by Syntectonic Strata

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract The timing of Cenozoic deformation in the East Kunlun Mountains, northern Tibet, is crucial for understanding plateau growth but remains disputed due to the scarcity of direct chronological constraints on specific tectonic structures. Here, we present a high‐density‐sampling magnetostratigraphic record from the Xiaohongshan section, interior ...

State of Stress in Subduction Zone Forearcs: Influence of the Mantle Wedge Corner and Serpentinization

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract We investigate the role of the elasticity and density of the forearc mantle wedge corner on the stress distribution in the forearc region of subduction zones, using numerical quasi‐2D lithospheric deformation models for the Cascadia, Nankai, NE Japan, and Costa Rica subduction zones. We incorporate the forearc mantle wedge corner as an elastic

In Situ Observation of Pressure‐Enhanced Hydrous–Anhydrous Solid Solution in Lower‐Mantle SiO2–AlOOH Phases

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Water plays a critical role in Earth's mantle dynamics and evolution, yet lower‐mantle storage mechanisms remain debated. δ‐AlOOH and SiO2 phases have been independently proposed as high‐pressure water hosts. Here, we conducted in situ synchrotron X‐ray diffraction experiments with a multi‐anvil apparatus and sintered diamond anvils to ...

Quantifying the Effects of Nickel on Earth’s Inner‐Core Nucleation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract The formation of Earth’s solid inner core marks a major transition in the thermal and chemical evolution of the deep Earth, yet its origin remains paradoxical, as initial nucleation appears to require unrealistically large undercooling in the outer core.

Tracing Mantle Upwellings Beneath Changbaishan/Mount Paektu: New Insights From Transition Zone Discontinuity Structure

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Intraplate volcanism in Northeast Asia, located in a distant back‐arc setting, challenges conventional models of mantle convection and volatile cycling. Using receiver function data from over 300 broadband stations, we image the mantle transition zone (MTZ) beneath the Changbaishan/Paektu volcano.

Preservation of Isolated Vesicles in Submarine Pumice and Implications for Submarine Slope Stability

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Pumice clasts from submarine eruptions contain abundant isolated vesicles that are completely encased in glass. As erupted clasts cool, gas inside isolated vesicles contracts, leading to low pressures inside those vesicles. Despite low pressures, isolated vesicles can be preserved in submarine pumice deposits to water depths of approximately 1–
