Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Rifting is a tectonic process that leads to extensive magmatic activity, continental breakup, and the formation of new oceanic crust. The interplay between rifting and dynamic mantle flow driven by thermal heterogeneity in the mantle along the rift‐axis can influence magmatism and deformation beyond the rift zone.

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.During the Late Permian, the rise of the Gondwanides Belt trapped marine waters, giving birth to a vast megalake. This lake shifted between overfilled, balanced‐fill and underfilled stages that are recorded by high‐frequency accommodation changes, while meteorological seiches shaped the sedimentary dynamic and produced heterolithic beds.

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015 Radon concentrations in soil air are variable depending on factors that are considered external (planetary) and internal (geodynamic) relative to the Earth. In active fault zones, variations of gas emanations are most intense.

Asthenospheric flow and origin of volcanism in the Baikal Rift area [PDF]
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2006 The origin of low-volume, hotspot-like volcanism often observed in continental rift areas is debated, as is the nature of the flow in the mantle beneath. In this paper we assemble seismic constraints on the mantle flow below the Baikal Rift Zone. We combine new evidence from upper-mantle tomography and from a radially anisotropic shear-velocity profile

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

Testing Models for Upper Mantle Earthquakes in the Tanganyika‐Rukwa Rift, Africa
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Rifts that initiate in mechanically strong, stable continental lithosphere are characterized by M > 5 earthquakes at depths >35 km near or below the crust mantle interface. Current models for deep rift zone earthquakes invoke elevated pore pressures associated with magmatism, and rapid stressing from magma intrusions.

First experience of seismodeformation monitoring of Baikal rift zone (by the example of South-Baikal earthquake of 27 August 2008) [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010 A novel method of data processing – a structural functions curvature analysis method – was applied to the time series of seismodeformation monitoring of Baikal rift zone from April to November 2008, revealing the unique features of monitoring variable ...
