Vertical Hydraulic Gradients as Key Calibration Constraints in Regional Groundwater Models
Abstract In typical clastic sedimentary aquifer systems, interbedded coarse‐ and fine‐grained deposits impede vertical flow and promote horizontal flow. This effect, known as vertical anisotropy, is often underestimated in regional groundwater models, leading to overestimated vertical aquifer communication.

Facilitation influences when trees grow, but not growth rate in a dry temperate forest
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Accurately predicting the role of forests in the global carbon cycle requires a detailed understanding of the factors mediating the timing and magnitude of radial stem growth. While weather conditions and topo‐edaphic factors play a critical role in mediating short‐term

ABSTRACT The processes involved during subduction initiation (SI) remain poorly constrained, in part due to the rarity of geological archives. Ophiolites and their underlying metamorphic soles are thought to form during subduction zone infancy and may thus provide critical constraints. Metamorphic soles are derived from oceanic crust of the lower plate

The Roles of Transcrustal Magma- and Fluid-Conducting Faults in the Formation of Mineral Deposits
In this article, we consider the roles of transcrustal magma- and fluid-conducting faults (TCMFCFs) in the formation of mineral deposits, showing the importance of deep sources of heat and hydrothermal solutions in the genesis and history of deposit ...

Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil
ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.
