A moderate melting model for the Vøring margin (Norway) based on structural observations and a thermo-kinematical modelling: Implication for the meaning of the lower crustal bodies [PDF]

, 2006
High P-wave velocities (7.1-7.8 km/s) lower crustal bodies (LCBs) imaged along volcanic margins are commonly interpreted as plume and breakup-related thick mafic underplating.

Deriving Intertidal Topography From SWOT Data and Sentinel‐2 Data

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 21, 16 November 2025.
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, initially designed to observe oceans and inland waters, proves valuable for mapping intertidal flat topography. This study presents a fusion method that integrates freely available SWOT interferometric altimetry data with Sentinel‐2 imagery.

Isostatic response of the lithosphere beneath the Mozambique Ridge (SW Indian Ocean) and geodynamic implications [PDF]

, 1989
International audienceS U M M A R Y The SW Indian Ocean is characterized by the presence of several aseismic features. The Mozambique Ridge, an elongated feature lying roughly parallel to the SE coast of Africa, is by far the least known of those ...

Migrated Teleseismic P Wave Receiver Functions Reveal Intricate Post‐Subduction Crust and Upper Mantle Structure of Northern Borneo (Sabah), Malaysia

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Borneo is a key piece of the regional tectonic puzzle of southeast Asia and a unique location to study subduction termination, particularly in the north. The tectonic history of Sabah in northern Borneo includes elements of five different subduction events: (a) westward Triassic Palaeo‐Pacific (∼240–200 Ma); (b) southward Cretaceous proto ...

Modeling Sea Level Rise Over 1993–2022: Implications for Understanding Coastal Observations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract Revealing the causes for modern coastal sea level rise advances actions for climate change. We model sea level rise with contributing sources, including land ice melting and sterodynamic sea level (SDSL) rise, then explore its implications for explaining measurements from tide gauges (TGs) and satellite altimetry over 1993–2022.

Fractalness of land gravity data and residual isostatic anomalies map of Argentina, Chile and western Uruguay [PDF]

, 2015
Gravity anomalies are often strongly influenced by topography, which effect is mitigated through appropriate reductions. Usually, a standard value of 2670 kg/m3 is used for the density of topography in the absence of specific information.

Geothermal Heat Flow Mapping of Germany Integrating Multi‐Geophysical and Geological Constraints With Uncertainty Quantification

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Geothermal heat flow (GHF) is a critical parameter for understanding the thermal structure and dynamics of the lithosphere, providing critical insights into lithospheric thermal evolution and geothermal energy potential. This study investigates the spatial variability of GHF in Germany by applying a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo method to ...

Continental emergence and growth on a cooling earth [PDF]

, 1999
Isostasy considerations are connected to a 1-D model of mantle differentiation due to pressure release partial melting to obtain a model for the evolution of the relative sea level with respect to the continent during the earth secular cooling. In this

Rift‐Related Sedimentary Basin and Deeper‐Seated Mafic Intrusions Modeled Beneath Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica: Influence on Glacier Dynamics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica has been identified as a route to destabilization of the whole West Antarctic Ice Sheet, potentially leading to several meters of sea‐level rise. However, future evolution of Thwaites Glacier remains uncertain due to a lack of detailed knowledge about its basal boundary that will affect how its retreat ...

Effective elastic thickness in the Central Andes. Correlation to orogenic deformation styles and lower crust high-gravity anomaly [PDF]

, 2018
Global studies have assessed the importance of elastic thickness (Te) on orogenic evolution, showing that the style and nature of upper crustal shortening are influenced by the inherited lithospheric strength. Thus, pioneer works have identified that the
