GIA‐Induced Mantle Circulation and Surface Horizontal Motions in North America: Effects of 3D Laterally Varying Elastic Thickness and Viscosity

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The horizontal surface motions of the Earth's crust induced by glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) are highly sensitive to lateral variations in Earth properties. We construct 3D GIA models by incorporating both varying elastic lithospheric thickness and lateral viscosity variations in the asthenosphere in a global, compressible, self ...

A Hybrid Framework Combining Physical and Data‐Driven Models for Predicting the Timing of Fault Instability

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Reliable prediction of earthquakes and rock mass failure has long been hampered by a fundamental trade‐off: achieving both a long warning window and high prediction accuracy. Physical models, such as the failure forecast method (FFM) based on the time‐reversed Omori law, can provide longer warning windows but are sensitive to data noise and ...

Characterizing Incoming Cocos Plate Structure Outboard of the Guerrero Gap and Adjacent Segments Offshore Mexico: Implications for Along‐Strike Variations in Megathrust Slip Behavior

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Megathrust slip behavior in subduction zones can vary along‐strike, yet the mechanisms driving this variability remain uncertain. The Middle America trench offshore Mexico provides an ideal setting to investigate the structural controls on megathrust slip behavior.

Joint seismic/electrical effective medium modelling of hydrate-bearing marine sediments and an application to the Vancouver Island margin [PDF]

, 2008
Remote determination of the hydrate content of marine sediments remains a challenging problem.In the absence of boreholes, the most commonly used approach involves the measurement of Pwavevelocities from seismic experiments.

Differential Vulnerability to Ship Strikes Between Day and Night for Blue, Fin, and Humpback Whales Based on Dive and Movement Data From Medium Duration Archival Tags

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
We examine the dive and movement behavior of blue, fin, and humpback whales along the US West Coast in regions with high ship traffic where ship strikes have been identified as a major concern.

Along-strike changes in ETS behavior near the slab edge of Southern Cascadia

Seismica
Episodic tremor and slip (ETS) is well-documented along the entire length of the Cascadia subduction zone. We explore how the occurrence of ETS varies at the southernmost edge of the subduction zone, where geometric complexity and a slab window likely ...
