Dynamic Controls on Salt Structures and Translation Velocity at Continental Rifted Margins

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Salt tectonics at rifted margins involves intricate interactions between weak, viscous evaporite layers and brittle sedimentary rocks. Geophysical data and geological interpretation offer valuable insights into evaporite structure formation and the average translation rate of evaporite and sediment layers on time scales of several million ...

3-D lithospheric structure and regional/residual Bouguer anomalies in the Arabia-Eurasia collision (Iran) [PDF]

, 2013
The aim of this work is to propose a first-order estimate of the crustal and lithospheric mantle geometry of the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone and to separate the measured Bouguer anomaly into its regional and local components.

Deep Sources of Recent Volcanism in Armenia Inferred From Ambient Noise Tomography

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract We perform Rayleigh wave ambient noise tomography to investigate crustal seismic velocity structure and sources of volcanism in Armenia. Armenia, a key part of the tectonically and volcanically active Caucasus‐Anatolia region, is actively being deformed by the ongoing Arabian‐Eurasian continental collision.

Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity Changes in the Easternmost Mediterranean During the Pre‐Evaporitic Messinian Controlled by the Restriction at Gibraltar

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract During the latest Miocene, the Mediterranean Basin was affected by extreme paleoceanographic and paleoenvironmental changes culminating with evaporite (gypsum and halite) formation during the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC: 5.97–5.33 Ma).

Analysis of satellite gravity and bathymetry data over Ninety-East Ridge: Variation in the compensation mechanism and implication for emplacement process [PDF]

, 2003
International audienceWe investigate the mode of compensation, emplacement history and deep density structure of the Ninety-East Ridge (Indian Ocean) using spectral analyses and forward modeling of satellite gravity and bathymetry data.

Thick Underplating and Buoyancy of the Bermuda Swell

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
Abstract Bermuda is an intraplate ocean swell that does not conform to traditional mantle plume theory. Unlike other prominent bathymetric swells, such as Hawaii, it lacks age‐progressive volcanism, a deeply rooted mantle plume, and modern volcanism. High‐frequency receiver‐function imaging of the shallow lithosphere beneath the Bermuda swell reveals ...

Density structure and isostasy of the lithosphere in Egypt and their relation to seismicity [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2018
A joint analysis of the new satellite–terrestrial gravity field model with recent data on the crustal structure and seismic tomography was conducted to create an integrative model of the crust and upper mantle and to investigate the relation of the ...

Geodetic Observations Reveal Near‐Zero Uplift Rates in the Transantarctic Mountains: Implications of Surface Mass Loading Deformation

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
Abstract The exposed bedrock of the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM) provides rare opportunity to constrain present‐day Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) in East Antarctica, with impacts on Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and other estimates of ice‐mass change.
