Significant Rural Contributions to Severe Coastal Urban Flooding Through Flow Connectivity
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract Coastal cities are increasingly threatened by hurricane‐induced compound flooding. However, the relative contributions of rainfall‐surge interactions and other flood drivers, such as runoff from surrounding rural and local impervious areas, in shaping urban flooding remain unclear.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract The Antarctic Peninsula has been climate‐sensitive since the mid‐20th century, but long‐term glacier mass balance data are scarce. This study uses historical aerial and high‐resolution satellite imagery to estimate mass changes on the western Antarctic Peninsula (66°S $66{}^{\circ}\mathrm{S}$–68°S $68{}^{\circ}\mathrm{S}$) from 1989 to 2020 ...

Back‐Propagating Earthquake Rupture Controlled by Fluid‐Modulated Effective Normal Stress
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract Back‐propagating earthquake rupture (BPR), where slip migrates opposite to the main rupture direction, is observed in several earthquakes but its origin remains poorly understood, particularly the role of fluids. We use dynamic simulations of frictional sliding coupled with fluids to explore the mechanisms of BPR. Our simulations show that BPR

Prototyping the Seismogenic Fault Injection Test (SFIT)
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract The treatment of induced seismicity risk would benefit from a small, standardized injection test that probes the seismic response to fluid injection—to optimally improve earthquake forecasts before a larger injection commences. To accomplish this goal, we propose a “model differencing” framework: this framework optimizes injection protocols by

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract The impact of three‐dimensional (3D) shortwave radiation on cloud condensate, size and lifetime is investigated using large‐eddy simulations coupled to an interactive land surface model (LSM). Results show 3D radiation produces higher cloud tops and greater cloud condensate than 1D radiation, resulting from larger downward shortwave fluxes ...

Fault Geometrical Control on Fault Slip: Experimental Validation of Theoretical Models
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract Slip distribution along tectonic faults is recognized as highly heterogeneous across all spatial scales and is linked to various aspects of the earthquake cycle, such as aftershock density and stress‐drop variability. A key factor often considered to control slip heterogeneity is the fault geometry, which is typically nonplanar at various ...

Mass Loss From Thwaites Glacier Continues Even Without Ocean Melting
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract Pine Island and Thwaites glaciers dominate Antarctica's sea‐level contribution. However, it remains unclear whether their ice loss is driven by anomalously warm present‐day ocean conditions, perhaps linked to anthropogenic climate change, or are an ongoing response to historical natural climate anomalies.

Enhanced Tidal Mixing Strengthened and Stabilized the AMOC During the Bølling–Allerød
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract Proxy records indicate a robust Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) during the Bølling–Allerød (BA) interstadial, despite substantial meltwater discharge. Using ocean circulation simulations, we demonstrate that enhanced tidal mixing, sustained by lower‐than‐modern sea levels, significantly strengthens the BA AMOC and increases ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.Abstract Observational constraints on the vertical microphysical evolution of mixed‐phase precipitation across the melting layer over the high‐altitude of southeastern Tibetan Plateau remain scarce. Using collocated two‐dimensional video disdrometer and Micro Rain Radar measurements in rainy seasons of 2022–2025, we characterize the vertical ...
