3-D lithospheric structure and regional/residual Bouguer anomalies in the Arabia-Eurasia collision (Iran) [PDF]

, 2013
The aim of this work is to propose a first-order estimate of the crustal and lithospheric mantle geometry of the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone and to separate the measured Bouguer anomaly into its regional and local components.

Seamounts [PDF]

, 2015
Definition: Seamounts are literally mountains rising from the seafloor. More specifically, they are “any geographically isolated topographic feature on the seafloor taller than 100 m, including ones whose summit regions may temporarily emerge above sea ...

Io's Long‐Wavelength Topography as a Probe for a Subsurface Magma Ocean

Geophysical Research Letters
We investigated how spatial variations in tidal heating affect Io's isostatic topography at long wavelengths. The long‐wavelength relief is less than the 0.3 km uncertainty in Io's global shape. Assuming Airy isostasy, degree‐2 topography

A Lithospheric Drip Triggered Green and Colorado River Integration

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The integration of the Green and Colorado Rivers shifted the continental drainage divide of North America, marking a key event in the hydrological and biogeographical evolution of the continent. Sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence shows that for integration to occur, the Green River likely cut through the Uinta Mountains between 8 and ...

Implications for Oceanographic and Seafloor Geodetic Applications Due To Settling of Self‐Calibrating Bottom Pressure Recorders

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Ocean bottom pressure recordings are a key observation for both ocean circulation and seafloor geodesy. New self‐calibrating instruments may solve a long‐time issue of instrument drift, allowing new high precision observations. However, instruments on the seafloor may settle over days to months, potentially contaminating results.

Deep Sources of Recent Volcanism in Armenia Inferred From Ambient Noise Tomography

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract We perform Rayleigh wave ambient noise tomography to investigate crustal seismic velocity structure and sources of volcanism in Armenia. Armenia, a key part of the tectonically and volcanically active Caucasus‐Anatolia region, is actively being deformed by the ongoing Arabian‐Eurasian continental collision.

Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity Changes in the Easternmost Mediterranean During the Pre‐Evaporitic Messinian Controlled by the Restriction at Gibraltar

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract During the latest Miocene, the Mediterranean Basin was affected by extreme paleoceanographic and paleoenvironmental changes culminating with evaporite (gypsum and halite) formation during the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC: 5.97–5.33 Ma).

A Novel Iterative Stable Algorithm for Global Moho Modeling in the Spherical Harmonic Domain

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Mohorovičić discontinuity (Moho) marks the boundary between Earth's crust and the underlying mantle, serving as a critical interface for understanding Earth's structure, composition, and geodynamic processes. This study introduces a novel iterative and stable algorithm for global Moho depth inversion.
