The Sumatra subduction zone: A case for a locked fault zone extending into the mantle [PDF]

, 2004
A current view is that the portion of the subduction interface that remains locked in the time interval between large interplate earthquakes, hereinafter referred to as the locked fault zone (LFZ), does not extend into the mantle because serpentinization

Distinct Crustal Structure Across the Alpine Fault, New Zealand: Seismic Imaging of a Through‐Going Vertical Fault Beneath Its Central Section

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Alpine Fault (Aotearoa New Zealand) is a major plate boundary transform fault, that quasi‐periodically hosts large (M7‐8) to great (M8+) earthquakes. The fault is thought to be segmented with sections rupturing both individually and in combination.

Shear wave structure of a transect of the Los Angeles basin from multimode surface waves and H/V spectral ratio analysis [PDF]

, 2020
We use broad-band stations of the ‘Los Angeles Syncline Seismic Interferometry Experiment’ (LASSIE) to perform a joint inversion of the Horizontal to Vertical spectral ratios (H/V) and multimode dispersion curves (phase and group velocity) for both ...

Crustal structure below Popocat\'epetl Volcano (Mexico) from analysis of Rayleigh waves [PDF]

, 2007
An array of ten broadband stations was installed on the Popocat\'epetl volcano (Mexico) for five months between October 2002 and February 2003. 26 regional and teleseismic earthquakes were selected and filtered in the frequency time domain to extract the

A Curie Point Depth Model of the Conterminous United States Derived From a Prior‐Constrained Equivalent Source Inversion

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Curie Point Depth (CPD) is a key thermal boundary in the deep lithosphere and is widely used to constrain its thermal structure. However, uncertainties in magnetization and the non‐uniqueness of inversion lead to considerable inter‐study differences.

Crustal structure beneath the Trondelag Platform and adjacent areas of the Mid-Norwegian margin, as derived from wide-angle seismic and potential field data [PDF]

, 2010
The outer mid-Norwegian margin is characterized by strong breakup magmatism and has been extensively surveyed. The crustal structure of the inner continental shelf, however, is less studied, and its relation to the onshore geology, Caledonian structuring,

Moho depth inferred from gravity and topography in an intraplate area (Iberian Chain)

, 2016
This paper discusses variations in Moho depth beneath an intraplate area, including the Iberian Chain thrust belt and the surrounding Cenozoic basins, based on topography and Bouguer anomaly data analysis. Two models of Moho depth mapping were used: Airy

Multiscale Analysis of Bouguer Gravity Anomalies: Unveiling the Deep Structure of Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis Faults

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis (EHS), which is located at the southeastern edge of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau, is a key region for understanding mountain‐building and subduction processes. Bouguer gravity anomalies derived from the Earth Gravitational Model 2008 free‐air anomaly data following topographic corrections, were analyzed.

The effective elastic thickness of the India Plate from receiver function imaging, gravity anomalies and thermomechanical modelling [PDF]

, 2006
The range and the meaning of the effective elastic thickness (EET) in continental areas have been subject to controversy over the last two decades. Here we take advantage of the new data set from the Hi-CLIMB seismological experiment to re-estimate the ...

Mantle Xenolith Evidence for Lithospheric Thinning and Metasomatic Modification Beneath the Eastern Fiji Plateau: Implications for Samoan Plume Supply, Intraplate Volcanism, and Orocline Formation

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
We provide petrographic and geochemical characterisation of mantle xenoliths from Koro Island, eastern Fiji. Several lherzolite xenoliths display spinel–pyroxene symplectite textures, including preserved former grain boundaries, consistent with garnet breakdown that we attribute to thinning of a preexisting garnet‐facies lithospheric mantle beneath ...
