Complex Kinematics of Upper‐Plate Faulting Along the Central Cascadia Forearc Inferred From the Lateral Displacement of Marine Terraces

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Recent earthquakes along the shallow portion of the Hikurangi subduction zone (the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake sequence, New Zealand) indicate that faults within the overriding plate of subduction zones may exhibit uncharacteristically large surface displacements relative to their fault length. Whether this style of upper‐plate faulting is common

Analytical Model of Velocity Distribution and Penetration Characteristics in Water‐Level Fluctuation Zone With Vegetation

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract As a critical ecological transition zone between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, the water‐level fluctuation zone significantly influences flow structure through vegetation morphology. Conventional analytical velocity models inadequately address the variation in vegetation with water depth.

Salinity Variations in the Venice Lagoon (Italy) Induced by Safeguard Structures: A Challenging Trade‐Off Between Urban and Ecosystem Protection in the Face of Climate Change

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Estuaries provide vital ecosystem services, but the communities and ecosystems they support are increasingly threatened by flooding driven by climate change and sea level rise. Hard‐engineering solutions like levees, seawalls, river diversions, and storm‐surge barriers help mitigate flooding risk, but their combined operation within the same ...

How natural are the sediments on our beaches? Characterising urban anthropogenic mixed beaches in Scotland

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 519-539, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Mixed beaches containing anthropogenic geomaterials such as bricks, concrete, glass, ceramics, tarmac and slag are globally understudied. These materials enter natural beach systems through erosion or dumping, and rising sea levels and increased storminess are expected to intensify coastal erosion, reworking and re‐exposing previously dumped ...

Soft‐bedded ice sheet in hummocky terrain of north‐central Poland: Origin of rim ridges and subglacial processes

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 540-559, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Hummocky terrains are characterised by various geomorphological features that typically record processes associated with the downwasting of ice sheets. Common landforms in these areas include ramparts, linear ridges, kettle holes and ice‐walled lake plains.

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
