Interaction Between Climate and Tectonics in the Northern Lesser Antilles Inferred From the Last Interglacial Shoreline on Barbuda Island

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
In the context of increasing evidence of plate interface coupling variability in subduction zones, there is a need to extend the short time window given by instrumental data and to gather data over multiple time and spatial scales.

Deformation Patterns and Rupture Mechanisms of the Longitudinal Valley Fault in Eastern Taiwan: Insights From Three‐Dimensional Discrete Element Modeling

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Active faults exhibit complex geometric features, with rupture processes controlled by the coupled effects of tectonic loading, fault geometry, and internal displacement heterogeneity. To elucidate the interrelationship between long‐term deformation, stress redistribution, and rupture evolution, we constructed a three‐dimensional numerical ...

Block Kinematics, Interseismic Coupling and Fault Slip Rates in the Aegean Region From GPS and Earthquake Slip Vector Data: 1. Upper Plate Structures

Journal of Geophysical Research - Solid Earth
We represent the active deformation of the Aegean region with an elastic‐kinematic block model composed of a finite number of rotating crustal blocks whose boundaries coincide with major active structures. A total of 832 GPS velocities and 146 earthquake

Recent Relative Sea‐Level Changes Recorded by Coral Microatolls in Southern Ryukyus Islands, Japan: Implication for the Seismic Cycle of the Megathrust

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
The seismic hazard related to megathrust earthquakes in the Ryukyus (southern Japan) is poorly constrained as no large earthquake has been reported there.

Thermal and Structural Signatures Associated With Subducted Seamounts in Hyuga‐nada and Off Cape Muroto, Southwest Japan

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We present heat flow estimates beneath the forearc slopes off Hyuga‐nada and Cape Muroto in the Nankai Trough, where the Philippine Sea plate subducts beneath the southwestern Japan. Using seismic reflection data, we identified Bottom Simulating Reflectors and derived heat flow ranging from 20 to >140 mW/m2.

Block Kinematics, Interseismic Coupling and Fault Slip Rates in the Aegean Region From GPS and Earthquake Slip Vector Data: 2. Hellenic Subduction System

Journal of Geophysical Research - Solid Earth
The Hellenic subduction system is the primary locus of Nubia‐Eurasia convergence, yet the distribution of strain accumulation along it is still debated.

The Coupling Cloud: A community database of megathrust kinematic coupling models

Seismica
Kinematic coupling models inverted from geodetic data are widely used to evaluate how slip deficit is distributed along subduction megathrusts during the interseismic period, and are central to earthquake and tsunami hazard assessment.

Mapping Global GNSS Vertical Velocities to Solid Earth Figure Change

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Earth's figure evolves in response to glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), surface‐mass redistribution, and rotational and mantle‐driven processes. While temporal changes in the geoid's flattening are monitored through low‐degree gravity field harmonics, the geometric response of the solid Earth can be assessed independently from GNSS ...

Dynamically Triggered Changes of Plate Interface Coupling in Southern Cascadia [PDF]

, 2019
In subduction zones, frictional locking on the subduction interface produces year-by-year surface deformation that is measurable with GPS. During the interseismic period of the earthquake cycle, lasting hundreds of years between major earthquakes, these ...
