Structure of the North‐Central Chile Subduction Zone From Local Earthquake Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The fluid cycle in subduction zones prescribes large parts of its structure and seismogenic behavior. Background seismicity inside the downgoing slab is linked to fluid release from dehydration reactions, whereas fluid overpressure along the plate interface can alter interplate coupling, megathrust earthquakes, and the presence or absence of ...

Subduction Zone Magnetism: The Influence of Metamorphism and Serpentinization in the Mantle Wedge

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Subduction zone magnetic anomalies have previously been used to infer their thermal structure assuming a uniformly serpentinized mantle carries a homogeneous, isotropic magnetization. However, seismic tomography, geological observations and numerical modeling provide increasing evidence for a non‐uniformly serpentinized mantle wedge that may ...

Quantifying Vein Network Permeability in Dehydrated Serpentinites Using Thermodynamics and Generative AI

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Fluids released from subducting hydrated rocks influence volcanism, tectonics, and geochemical cycling, but the mechanisms of fluid escape in subduction zones remain poorly understood. We address this issue by investigating the Erro‐Tobbio meta‐serpentinites (ET‐MS), Italy, exhumed serpentinite rocks that preserve extensive dehydration vein ...
