Inversion by Intrusion: Magma‐Driven Shortening in the Turkana Rift (East Africa)
Abstract Late Pliocene to Pleistocene inversion in the Turkana Rift, observed on seismic reflection data and in outcrop, presents a tectonic paradox by indicating local shortening in an overall extensional setting. Previous studies attributed this inversion either to the reactivation of obliquely oriented structural weaknesses or to reorientation of ...

Abstract Routine Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) acquisitions from the Sentinel‐1 constellation enable monitoring of slow surface deformation (millimeters to centimeters per year), yet consistent and accessible pathways for producing validated, user‐ready velocity products remain limited.

Mining subsidence is time-dependent and highly nonlinear, especially in the Loess Plateau region in Northwestern China. As a consequence, and mainly in building agglomerations, the structures can be damaged severely during or after underground extraction,

Abstract Accurate interpretation of time‐variable gravity from GRACE (‐FO) requires correction for glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), which has a gravitational signal similar in magnitude to that of contemporary hydrological and cryospheric mass change.

The discontinuous permafrost zone is one of the world’s most sensitive areas to climate change. Alaskan boreal forest is underlain by discontinuous permafrost, and wildfires are one of the most influential agents negatively impacting the condition of ...

Abstract Temporal changes in seismicity rates can be conceptually understood as a response and consequence of stress changes. Dieterich (1994, https://doi.org/10.1029/93JB02581) formalized this relationship using empirically derived rate‐and‐state friction laws, and Heimisson and Segall (2018, https://doi.org/10.1029/2018JB015656) later generalized the

3D Vs ambient noise tomography of the 2016 Mw 6.4 Meinong Earthquake source region in Taiwan
Mw 6.4 Meinong earthquake occurred on 6 February 2016 in southern Taiwan, resulting in more than one hundred casualties and several collapsed buildings. The aftershocks occurred mostly at mid-to-lower crustal depths (10 - 30 km), related to a blind fault

Abstract The Krafla volcanic system in Iceland, a subaerial segment of the divergent boundary between the North American and Eurasian plates, offers a unique opportunity to investigate volcano‐tectonic processes. We present a six‐segment kinematic back slip plate boundary model constrained jointly by long‐term deformation velocity fields from Global ...
