The Impact of Orogenic Inheritance on Rifted Margin Formation
Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Many rifted margins form within pre‐existing orogenic belts, emphasizing the significance of structural, thermal, and compositional inheritance in shaping rift dynamics. However, a key unresolved question is how these different types of orogenic inheritance individually influence rift evolution.

Investigating the Antarctic Lithosphere Through Sp Receiver Function Analysis
Geochemistry, Geophysics, GeosystemsTo better understand the lithosphere of Antarctica, we imaged its lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB) and crust‐mantle transition using Sp receiver functions from teleseismic events analyzed at individual stations and with common conversion point ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.Abstract Alaska's tectonic complexity makes it ideal for probing upper mantle deformation. We present a 3D shear‐wave anisotropy model obtained by inverting 7,985 SKS splitting intensity measurements from 261 broadband stations using 941 events from 2000 to 2023.

Lithosphere-asthenosphere system in shield areas of North America and Europe
Annals of Geophysics, 1997 In previous papers surface dispersion data have been combined with the results of deep seismic refraction data to derive a regionalization of the lithosphere-asthenosphere system and to investigate the presence of significant heterogeneity down to depths

Impact of global seismicity on sea level change assessment
, 2005 We analyze the effect of seismic activity on sealevel variations, by computing the time-dependent vertical crustal movement and geoid change due to coseismic deformations and postseismic relaxation effects.
