Deformation and Sediment Provenance of the Forearc Basin in the Central Andes of Southern Peru

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The linkages between the development of the forearc regions and the accompanying retroarc in contractional mountain belts remain unclear. In the central Andes of southern Peru, new results constrain the timing of deformation and the provenance of forearc basin fill during Cenozoic mountain building.

Building Topography in a Continental Subduction Orogen: Insights From Geomorphic Analysis and 10Be Denudation Rates of the Albanides

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Understanding the relationship between surface and deep geological processes in tectonically active settings is crucial for unraveling the factors controlling landscape evolution and topographic growth. Here, we present the first basin‐averaged 10Be‐derived denudation rates for the Albanides, a subduction orogen in the Central Mediterranean ...

Anatomy of the Right‐Lateral Strike‐Slip Cephalonia Fault to the Western Hellenic Arc Frontal Thrust

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The region offshore the Ionian Islands (Kefalonia or Cephalonia, Lefkada, Zakynthos, and Ithaca), western Greece, is characterized by very high seismogenic and tsunamigenic potential. Despite numerous studies, many questions remain regarding the structures and kinematics in this area.

Seismotectonics and Crustal Structure in the Southern Dominican Republic Offshore Margin: Implications on the Tsunami Potential

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Many coastal areas of the southern Dominican Republic experience considerable population pressure accompanied by important economic activity. The southern offshore margin is characterized by significant seismicity and active geological processes.

Plate‐Scale Strike‐Slip Fault System in the Barbados Accretionary Wedge of the Lesser Antilles Subduction Zone

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Fault systems of various geometries develop into accretionary wedges to accommodate slip partitioning of plate convergence in oblique settings. However, how they form, evolve and contribute to the segmentation of the megathrust is still poorly understood. The Barbados accretionary wedge, which results from the subduction of the American plates

Drivers of Insect Diversity and Community Turnover in Protected Tropical Deciduous Forests of Mexico

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
Seasonal fluctuations and anthropogenic disturbance drive insect diversity and community structure in two protected tropical deciduous forests on Mexico's Pacific coast. High regional turnover in insect communities underscores the unique biodiversity of tropical deciduous forests.

Interseismic Coupling Along the Java‐Timor Subduction‐Collision Zone at East Indonesia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 6, 28 March 2025.
Abstract The Java‐Timor subduction‐collision zone is one of the most tectonically complicated structures along the strike of the Indonesia‐Australia convergence. This complexity makes it difficult to interpret observations of interseismic deformation. In this study, we simultaneously inverted 108 Global Positioning System velocities and 176 earthquake ...

Pan‐European Landslide Risk Assessment: From Theory to Practice

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 1, March 2025.
Abstract Assessing landslide risk is a fundamental requirement to plan suitable prevention actions. To date, most risk studies focus on individual slopes or catchments. Whereas regional, national or continental scale assessments are hardly available because of methodological and/or data limitations.
