Crustal Structure of Laurentia and Peri‐Gondwanan Terranes Beneath Ireland and Britain and Comparison With Eastern North America

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Appalachian‐Caledonian orogen was built during the Paleozoic by accretion of peri‐Gondwanan terranes onto Laurentia, culminating in the formation of Pangea. During the Mesozoic, Pangea broke apart, displacing one section of the belt to eastern North America and another to northwestern Europe.

Modeling Geoid and Dynamic Topography From Tomography‐Based Thermo‐Chemical Mantle Convection

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Mantle convection causes the most important contribution to the geoid and dynamic topography. With mantle density inferred from high‐resolution tomography models and numerical methods solving the governing equations of viscous mantle flow, the modeled geoid can fit the observations well.

Interplay Between Tectonics and Submarine Mass Transport Deposits in Cortes Basin: New High‐Resolution Geophysics in the Outer California Borderland

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Outer California Borderland (OCB) is an active transform plate boundary offshore Southern California, where the relationship between faulting and submarine mass transport deposits (MTDs) remains poorly understood. Onshore paleoseismic data provide high‐resolution earthquake records, whereas marine geophysical data capture longer‐term ...

From Collision to Subduction: Thermal‐Kinematic Inversions Constrain Plate Boundary Structure and Dip‐Slip Activity in Southwestern New Zealand

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Constraints on three‐dimensional fault system geometry and kinematics are required to understand both long‐term tectonics and contemporary seismic hazard. In many cases, these parameters must be inferred from a combination of different data or analyses.

Global Imaging of the Mantle Transition Zone Using SS Precursors Shows Lower Mantle Convection Patterns that are Broadly Linked to Tectonics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Central to our understanding of mantle convection and inner Earth material transport is the mantle transition zone. Mantle transition zone thicknesses can reveal key constraints on the locations and degree of material transport between the upper mantle and lower mantle.

Deep Learning‐Based Tracking of Subduction Zones in Mantle Convection Models

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Subduction zones are central to Earth's tectonic evolution. Previously, identification and tracking of subduction zones in numerical mantle convection models have relied on methods such as detecting gradients in horizontal surface velocity.

Proposed satellite laser ranging and very long baseline interferometry sites for crustal dynamics investigations [PDF]

Recommendations are presented for a global network of 125 sites for geodetic measurements by satellite laser ranging and very long baseline interferometry. The sites were proposed on the basis of existing facilities and scientific value for investigation

Chemical‐Thermomechanical Modeling of Open‐System Mass Transfer: Application to the Subduction Interface

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract One of the main limitations in simulating subsolidus metasomatism is the decoupling between thermomechanical models and chemical/thermodynamic modeling. This decoupling amplifies the uncertainty associated with mass transport. Here, we introduce a fluid‐rock chemical‐thermomechanical interaction scheme, which integrates thermodynamic modeling (
