The evolution of pore fluid pressure ( Pf$P_{\mathrm{f}}$) in the most seaward portion of a subduction accretionary prism plays an essential role in the cycle of tsunamigenic earthquakes. Based on recent geophysical observations, here we propose a testable conceptual model for this evolution for northern Cascadia offshore of Washington.

ABSTRACT There is growing evidence supporting the anti‐inflammatory activity of plant sterols (PS) in preclinical models of intestinal inflammation. However, the underlying mechanisms driving these beneficial effects remain incompletely understood. This study investigates the transcriptional modulatory activity of a PS food supplement (PS‐FS) on genes ...

Flux and Isotopic Composition of Sedimentary Carbon Subducting Along the World's Trenches
Abstract Here we provide comprehensive estimates for the subducted sedimentary flux of inorganic and organic carbon and δ13C at 16 trench segments worldwide. Our calculations provide minimum (incoming sediment), maximum (trench fill) and best estimates (underthrust) of carbon fluxes.

Holocene Sedimentary Record and Coastal Evolution in the Makran Subduction Zone (Iran)
The western Makran coast displays evidence of surface uplift since at least the Late Pleistocene, but it remains uncertain whether this displacement is accommodated by creep on the subduction interface, or in a series of large earthquakes.

Probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment for the Makran region with focus on maximum magnitude assumption [PDF]
Despite having been rather seismically quiescent for the last decades, the Makran subduction zone is capable of hosting destructive earthquakes and tsunami.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

Abstract Trade between Mesopotamia and the Indus Civilization is studied through the analysis of Early Dynastic III Period (2600–2350 BCE) carnelian beads from the site of Kish, Iraq. Morphological and technological features of the beads are compared with beads from the Indus region.

Pure‐istan: Gender and Genocide in Pakistan
ABSTRACT This study examines the ongoing genocidal violence against the Baloch nation. It highlights how the Pakistani state has weaponized Islamic doctrine to construct a vision of a homogenized, “purer, more Islamic state” that excludes and others those deemed incompatible with its vision of purity. This logic of purification is deeply gendered.
