Supershear Transitions and Bilateral Asymmetric Rupture of the 2025 Sagaing (Myanmar) Earthquake Revealed by Geodetic and Seismic Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract The Sagaing Fault (SF) accommodates major plate motion in Myanmar, yet large earthquakes along it have rarely been captured by modern geodetic and seismic observations. The 2025 Sagaing earthquake generated an exceptionally long rupture (∼535 km), offering a rare opportunity to investigate rupture dynamics along continental transform fault. We

Mo Isotopic Records Imply Persistent Ocean Oxygenation in the Deep Southwest Pacific During the Early Cenozoic Warming Period

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract During the early Cenozoic greenhouse period, counterintuitive contractions in tropical Pacific oxygen‐deficient zones have been linked to enhanced deep‐ocean ventilation, yet direct geological evidence remains limited. Here we present molybdenum (Mo) isotopic records from International Ocean Discovery Program Site U1509.

Characterization of Crustal Deformation During the May 2021 Nyiragongo Eruption Using InSAR and GNSS Data

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract We analyze Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data to characterize ground deformation and dike opening associated with the May 2021 Nyiragongo eruption. Despite documented eruptions in 1977 and 2002, Nyiragongo's magmatic system and its interaction with regional rifting remain poorly ...

Confined Compressibility of Fine-Grained Marine Sediments with Cavities after Complete Dissociation of Noduled Natural Gas Hydrates

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Due to natural and anthropogenic disturbances, natural gas hydrates with morphologies of nodules and chunks dissociate and release massive free gas, creating large cavities within fine-grained marine sediments.
