Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.Abstract We investigate the internal structure of the Mantle Transition Zone (MTZ) beneath the contiguous U.S. by mapping the depth of the 520‐km discontinuity (d520) and the relative amplitude of seismic phases associated with the 520‐, 410‐, and 660‐km discontinuities.

Mantle Exhumation and Post‐Rift Magmatism at an Oblique Magma‐Poor Continental Margin
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.Abstract Continental breakup is a fundamental tectonic process, which leads to seafloor spreading and the generation of oceanic crust. However, the current understanding of continental margins, based largely on 2‐D seismic transects, is inadequate to capture the spatial complexity of crustal evolution.

Complex Dynamic Rupture of an Mw5.8 Intermediate‐Depth Earthquake in the Hellenic Slab
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.Abstract Earthquakes in the Hellenic slab, traced by tomography down to 1,200 km, occur at depths <200 km with enigmatic origin and dynamics. We study a 2014 Mw5.8 left‐lateral strike‐slip earthquake originating at a depth of ∼90 km under arc‐parallel compression, featuring a small implosive component of the moment tensor.

Anomalous Shear Stress Variation in Wet Granular Medium: Implications for Landslide Lateral Faults
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.Abstract Landslide assessments typically focus on the mechanical properties of the basal shear zone, but lateral faults are frequently overlooked, possibly due to their lower normal stresses and variably saturated conditions. Using double‐cylinder shear experiments on wet granular systems as analogs for landslide lateral faults, we observe anomalous ...
