Signatures of widespread Surtseyan volcanism at the northern Reykjanes ridge

Communications Earth & Environment
Submarine explosive volcanism shapes seafloor morphology, impacts marine ecosystems, and poses risks to maritime infrastructure and coastal communities. However, its occurrences and drivers remain poorly constrained, especially for basaltic systems. Here

Stardust Mine: A 2024 gabbroic shergottite from Arizona, USA

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study provides an initial characterization of Stardust Mine, a fresh gabbroic enriched shergottite collected in Arizona, USA, in September 2024 and is the first Martian meteorite to be unequivocably collected on US soil. Analysis was conducted on the type specimen and finds that Stardust Mine is composed of equal proportions of pyroxene ...

Regional Earthquake Ground Motion Simulations for Southern California With EQSIM: Insights From the 2008 Chino Hills, 2024 Highland Park, and 2021 Carson Earthquakes

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
This study presents physics‐based, 3D simulations using the EQSIM framework for several earthquakes in the Los Angeles region. The primary objective was to assess the ability of deterministic physics‐based ground motion simulations to reproduce the observed motions from historical events.

Quantifying Multidimensional Effects in Linear Site Response Using 1D and 2D Simulations of Sedimentary Basins in Wellington, New Zealand

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
This study quantifies the influence of multidimensional effects on site response in the Wellington region of New Zealand by comparing results from different simulation approaches. Response‐spectral amplification functions from 1D and 2D site response analyses are compared to quantify the magnitude and spatial distribution of multidimensional effects ...

Assessments of Liquefaction Triggering and Manifestation at Three Case History Sites in Napier Based on 1931 Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, Earthquake

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
The 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake (∼MS 7.8) stands as one of New Zealand's most devastating, causing widespread liquefaction and damage across the city of Napier. However, Napier remains underrepresented in liquefaction hazard studies as compared to other regions in the country.

Post‐Event Ground Motion Estimation using Graph Neural Networks

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Accurate ground motion (GM) estimates are essential for forensic analysis of structural damage following major earthquakes when direct recordings at the location(s) of interest are unavailable. Contemporary post‐event GM estimation methods often leverage nearby observations to constrain estimates of intensity measures (IMs); however, existing ...

Transient Creep on the Yarlung Zangbo Suture in Southern Tibet Triggered by the 2015 Gorkha (Nepal) Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Large earthquakes often elevate seismicity in surrounding regions, as seen on the Xainza‐Dinggyê rift in southern Tibet after the 2015 MW 7.8 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake. In contrast, the EW‐trending Yarlung Zangbo suture (YZS), located directly north of this event, exhibits seismic quiescence.

High‐Resolution Tomography for the Upper‐Mantle Structure in North China by Full‐Waveform Inversion of Teleseismic P Wave and Its Codas

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract We investigate the structure and tectonic environment in the crust and upper mantle beneath the North China Craton (NCC) by conducting a full‐waveform inversion of teleseismic P and its coda waves from densely distributed broadband seismic stations. A high‐resolution model involving P‐ and S‐wave velocities as well as density is constructed by

The Significance of Inherited Crustal Thickening in Surface Uplift of Hangai Dome in Central Mongolia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract The Hangai Dome in central Mongolia represents one of the most prominent intracontinental uplifts, yet the relative contributions of crustal and mantle dynamics in sustaining its high topography remain unresolved. Here we jointly invert Rayleigh wave dispersion and receiver function data to constrain crustal and uppermost mantle structures ...
