Several Kilometers of Global Contraction on Mercury: A Sample‐Size Independent Assessment of Fault Strain

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Mercury underwent global contraction due to the sustained cooling of the planet. Positive‐relief landforms, found widespread across Mercury, are thought to be the surface expressions of thrust faults accommodating the contraction. Disagreement exists in the literature on the amount of contraction, with estimates of radius change ranging from ...

Resolution of SWOT Altimetry: Improvements Along Continental Margins

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The along‐track sea surface slopes (SSS) computed from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) measurements are extremely important in the retrieval of high‐resolution global marine gravity anomalies. We estimate the spatial resolution of SWOT measurements and assess the inherent improvements offered by wide‐swath altimetry over 12 sites

Kinematic Representations of Viscoelastic Postseismic Deformation

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Following large earthquakes, viscoelastic stress relaxation may contribute to postseismic deformation observed at Earth's surface. Mechanical representations of viscoelastic deformation require a constitutive relationship for the lower crust/upper mantle material where stresses are diffused and, for non‐linear rheologies, knowledge of absolute
