Scaling the Swell: Plume‐Lithosphere Interaction and Its Signal in Dynamic Seafloor Topography

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Hotspot swells provide key constraints for understanding plume‐lithosphere interaction. However, quantitative relationships between plume properties and swell morphology remain poorly constrained. Here, we use 3D regional geodynamic models with composite diffusion‐dislocation creep rheology to investigate plume‐lithosphere interaction for ...

Marine Geophysical Investigation of a Fault Ruptured During the 2012 Mw 8.6 Wharton Basin Earthquake

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The 2012 Mw 8.6 and 8.2 Wharton Basin earthquakes, within an intraplate deformation zone in the Indian Ocean, are the largest instrumentally recorded strike‐slip earthquakes on Earth that challenged the prevailing view that great earthquakes occur only at well‐defined plate boundaries.

Magma Channeling and Crustal Structure of a STEP Fault From Integrated Geological and Geophysical Data: The Central Aeolian Volcanoes (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea)

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Arc volcanism is commonly interpreted as the surface expression of subduction‐related magmatism and its spatial organization is often controlled by lithospheric structures. In arc‐back‐arc systems, slab retreat may promote the transition from compression to extension and the development of Subduction‐Transform Edge Propagator (STEP) faults ...

Fault Slip Reversals Preceded the Intraplate 2021 Earthquake Series in the Vienna Basin (Central Europe)

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Fault‐slip reversals indicate transient stress changes and may illuminate earthquake preparation processes. Here we present high‐resolution observations of sub‐millimetric creep and slip reversals on the Altaquelle Fault, a Quaternary normal fault in the southern Vienna Basin, preceding a regionally significant intraplate earthquake sequence ...

Regional variations in the diffusion of triggered seismicity [PDF]

, 2005
We determine the spatiotemporal characteristics of interearthquake triggering in the International Seismological Centre catalogue on regional and global scales. We pose a null hypothesis of spatially clustered, temporally random seismicity, and determine

Intraplate seismicity in central Chile

, 1996
Plusieurs nids de sismicité superficielle intraplaque (0-20 km de profondeur), sans relation connue avec les failles en surface, sont détectés depuis déjà 10 ans par les réseaux sismologiques, sur le flanc occidental des Andes dans la région centrale du Chili.

Seismicity of tectonic structures of the South Polar Region

Записки Горного института
The paper studies seismicity of the South Polar Region from the South Pole to the 50th parallel of south latitude. During the observation period, earthquakes of various genesis with a magnitude of M > 8 occurred in seismically hazardous zones of the ...

Reactivation of basement faults by deep fluids during the 2017 Changdao earthquake swarm, Eastern China

Communications Earth & Environment
Ancient basement faults within plate interiors may be reactivated by external forces, generating intraplate seismicity. However, the driving mechanisms remain unclear.
