Injection Induced Seismicity in Complex Fault Zone Architecture

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Modeling of injection‐induced seismicity plays a significant role in understanding the seismic risks associated with different anthropogenic activities including sub‐surface energy harvesting and CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ sequestration. Here we investigate multi‐cycle modeling of induced seismicity in a complex fault zone hosting a primary fault ...

Teleseismic Radial Anisotropy Reveals a Sill‐Dominated Magma Reservoir Beneath the Valles Caldera, New Mexico

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The Valles Caldera (VC), one of the largest Quaternary silicic calderas in North America, formed by explosive rhyolitic eruptions. Seismic studies suggest a crustal magmatic reservoir beneath the caldera with low‐velocity anomalies, but resolving the detailed geometry of localized melt requires constraints from seismic anisotropy.

Theoretical Maximum and Cumulative Seismic Moment Relationships Confirm that Injection Volume Controls the Occurrence Rate, But Not the Magnitude, of Induced Earthquakes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Classical relationships between cumulative and maximum seismic moment, based on the Gutenberg‐Richter law, shows a non‐physical anomaly for low b‐values. We here derive new relationships, including a low and a high b‐value approximation.

Radar Specularity Content Indicates a Strong Geothermal Heat Flow Gradient in Antarctica's South Pole Basin

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Accurate estimates of geothermal heat flow (GHF) are critical for predicting basal melting and identifying stable sites for ancient ice, yet GHF remains one of the least constrained boundary conditions for the Antarctic Ice Sheet. We evaluate nine published Antarctic GHF models against radar‐derived specularity content in the South Pole Basin (
