Influence of Inherited Rifted Margin Architecture on Continental Collision Dynamics

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Continental collision is a key process in lithospheric evolution, driving mountain building, crustal thickening, and supercontinent assembly. Within the Wilson cycle, collision marks the final stage following rifting, ocean spreading, and subduction.

Hornblendite in the Lower Crust: A Possible Source for Porphyry Cu Deposits

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Lower crustal sulfide‐bearing Cu‐rich cumulates, mainly occurring as hornblendite, have been proposed as a critical source component for the development of giant porphyry Cu deposits (PCDs); however, their mineralogical and geochemical nature remain elusive.

Crustal and Upper Mantle Structure Beneath the Corinth Rift Using Receiver Function Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The Gulf of Corinth is one of the fastest‐extending continental rifts in Europe, yet the link between present‐day strain, inherited crustal structure, and lithospheric dynamics remains debated. We investigate crustal thickness and Vp/Vs variations using receiver functions from 31 seismic stations.

Fine‐Scale Structure and Kinematics of an Active Submarine Strike‐Slip Fault From Micro‐Bathymetric Mapping and Analog Modeling: The North Alfeo Fault Offshore Catania (Eastern Sicily)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Southern Italy and eastern Sicily have been the site of several destructive historical earthquakes. Here at the junction between the western edge of the Calabrian subduction zone and the Malta Escarpment several strike‐slip faults have been mapped, which may be the surface expression of the lateral slab tear fault and are candidate sources for

Spatial and Temporal Variations in Slip Rate Over Millions of Years on an Extensional Fault System and Implications for Seismic Hazard

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Slip rate is a key input for fault‐based seismic hazard assessment, with temporal and spatial variations in slip rate along and between faults influencing earthquake size and recurrence. Temporal variations in slip rate have been attributed to earthquake clustering and anti‐clustering in tectonically active settings.

Weakening Processes in Carbonate‐Hosted Faults: Phyllosilicate Microlayers and Injections Along the Mattinata Fault (Southern Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Micrometric phyllosilicate films along fault slip surfaces (SSs) can drastically reduce friction, yet they are unexpected in clay‐poor carbonate platforms. We inquire how a major carbonate‐hosted, seismogenic strike‐slip fault can develop weak slip interfaces and undergo dynamic weakening despite an intrinsically strong host rock.

Post‐Eocene 90° CCW Rotation of Sardinia‐South Corsica: Paleomagnetic Evidence From Permian‐Cretaceous Sediments of Nurra (NW Sardinia)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The paleomagnetism of Miocene calc‐alkaline volcanics and sediments from Sardinia has firmly showed that the Corsica‐Sardinia microplate rotated 50°–60° counterclockwise (CCW) with respect to Europe between 21 and 15 Ma, during its drift from the Provencal margin. However, Permian to Eocene rocks from central‐south Sardinia revealed higher (up
