The Dynamics of Fast and Slow Earthquake Ruptures in Viscoelastic Materials

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth
AbstractClassical theories using linear elasticity predict that crack propagation asymptotically approaches a limiting speed, beyond which the energy balance becomes unphysical. However, geophysical and laboratory observations show that ruptures can propagate at either a very low, stable speed or a significantly high speed. Here, we first use numerical

Multiscale Analysis of Bouguer Gravity Anomalies: Unveiling the Deep Structure of Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis Faults

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis (EHS), which is located at the southeastern edge of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau, is a key region for understanding mountain‐building and subduction processes. Bouguer gravity anomalies derived from the Earth Gravitational Model 2008 free‐air anomaly data following topographic corrections, were analyzed.

Forgetting and Remembering: Kenneth Cumberland and Soil Erosion in New Zealand, 1940s to 2020s

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 1, March 2026.
The speed and scale of landscape transformation in New Zealand was almost immediately apparent to British geographer Kenneth Cumberland on his appointment to Canterbury University College in 1938. His efforts culminated in the nationally and internationally well‐regarded book ‘Soil Erosion in New Zealand: A Geographical Reconnaissance (1944a)’, which ...

Compound Climate Events and Cascading Impacts in the IPCC AR6: Analysis of Gaps and Avenues for the AR7

WIREs Climate Change, Volume 17, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
The analysis of the IPCC AR6 WGI (2021) and WGII (2022) reports reveals that compound weather and climate events and risks (CE) mainly affect Oceania and Africa, and that the cascading impacts (CI) of climate change are particularly severe in the Arctic. Coastal and urban areas are the most cited archetypes in regard to CE and CI in these reports.

Large‐Scale Deformation, Strain Characteristics, and Locking Distribution of the Qilian‐Haiyuan Fault System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Qilian‐Haiyuan fault system is the main tectonic boundary of the northeastern Tibetan Plateau, controlling the regional tectonic deformation and seismic activity. Extensive Sentinel‐1 SAR data (2014–2021) are used to map the regional tectonic deformation, strain distribution, and locking along primary and secondary faults.
