The Influence of Bedding Orientation and Temperature on the Creep Behavior of Opalinus Clay

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The time dependency of deformation is of critical concern for assessing the integrity of barriers in nuclear waste repositories. Creep, in particular, is a phenomenon recognized for its potential “self‐sealing” properties or, conversely, the potential for delayed failure in the rock mass surrounding an excavation.

Porosity‐Permeability Evolution of Carbonate Rocks Under Cyclic Hydrostatic Loading: Creep‐Fatigue Interaction and Implications for Hydrogen Storage

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Underground hydrogen storage in porous formations (UHSP) subjects reservoir rocks to long‐term cyclic effective stress variations, potentially altering storage capacity and injectivity. In this study, we conduct hydrostatic loading tests on 18 Saint‐Maximin limestone (SML) samples (connected porosity 31.9%–37.2%) under various loading paths ...

Flow Processes in a Diffluence‐Confluence Unit on a Large‐Shallow River Under Different Discharges

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding the hydrodynamics of bifurcation and confluence zones is essential for effective river management. This study investigated the complex flow structure in a large diffluence‐confluence unit (width‐depth ratio >100) of the Middle Yangtze River, utilizing systematic field observations of three‐dimensional velocities under low to high

Consolidated‐Undrained Shear Behavior of Diatomaceous Mudstones: Implications for Submarine Landslides

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Submarine landslides occur globally and have the potential to damage seafloor infrastructure and trigger tsunamis. Recently, diatomaceous weak layers have been hypothesized to play a role in triggering submarine landslides on passive continental margins by generating overpressure.

Hydromechanical characterization of CO2 injection sites

open access: yes, 2013
Clear understanding of coupled hydromechanical effects, such as ground deformation, induced microseismicity and fault reactivation, will be crucial to convince the public that geologic carbon storage is secure.

Soil Physical Resilience to Compaction as Influenced by a Legacy of Different Organic Amendments in the Field

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Compression resilience assays using soil compression and wetting/drying cycles were applied to soils amended with varying slurry and compost levels. Greater SOC inputs in compost‐amended soils enhanced compressibility with better pore recovery and hydraulic functions. Slurry and compost‐amended soils showed similar resilience and hydraulic functions at

Hydraulic Control of the Foreshocks and Mainshock of the 2017 Valparaíso, Chile, Earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Slow‐slip events (SSE) are a key mode of aseismic deformation and can enhance fault permeability through fracturing, enabling fluid migration from the overpressured oceanic crust to the plate interface. Whether the resulting poroelastic stress changes promote seismicity and larger megathrust events, however, remains unclear.
