Pre‐Rift Orogenic Erosion Facilitates the Exhumation of Lower Crust at Rifted Margins

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 14, 28 July 2025.
Abstract During the late‐stage of continental rifting, lower crustal rocks can be exhumed to the Earth's surface. Such exposure has been identified especially in rifts that developed within former orogens. These rifts exploited zones of lithospheric weakness created during previous mountain‐building events.

A European Hail and Lightning Climatology From an 11‐Year Kilometer‐Scale Regional Climate Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 14, 28 July 2025.
Abstract Hail and lightning, associated with severe convective storms, can cause extensive damage to infrastructure, agriculture, and ecosystems. Because of the small scale of these storms and the complexity of the involved processes, observing and modeling convective storms is challenging.

Physical Properties Controlling Earthquake Ruptures: Two Study Cases Along the South American Subduction Zone

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 14, 28 July 2025.
Abstract Seismic velocity models were compared with coseismic slip distributions for two megathrust earthquakes that occurred along the South American subduction zone. By analyzing the distribution of Vp/Vs ratios, we found that seismic anomalies with values higher or lower than the average coincide with the boundaries of the earthquake ruptures.

Investigating Criticality in Rock Failure Using Fiber‐Optic Strain Sensing

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 14, 28 July 2025.
Abstract Gradual localization of deformation preceding catastrophic failure can produce precursory signals associated with a phase transition that may be present prior to earthquakes. However, due to the unclear origin of these precursors and the complexity of the environmental conditions, detecting such preparatory signals remains challenging. Here we
