Solar Energy in 2025: Global Deployment, Cost Trends, and the Role of Energy Storage in Enabling a Resilient Smart Energy Infrastructure

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2026.
This paper explores global solar PV deployment, cost trends, and grid integration challenges in 2025. It examines the role of energy storage in firming solar output and supporting electric vehicle (EV) growth, alongside policy shifts, investment flows, and technological innovations.

Seismic Evidence for Possible Slab Melting from Strong Scattering Waves

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2011
Slab melting in young and hot subduction zones has been studied using geochemical observations and thermal modelling, but there are few data from seismic studies to confirm slab melting.

Desmotheca (Orthotrichaceae) : Gondwanan fragmentation and the origin of a Southeast Asian genus [PDF]

, 1990
Desmotheca Lindberg was proposed in 1872 as a replacement name for the illegitimate Cryptocarpon Dozy & Molk. (1844) and Cryptocarpus Dozy & Molk. (1846).

Anisotropic Permeability Pathways Controlled by Intraslab Stress Heterogeneity in the Philippine Sea Slab Beneath the Ryukyu Arc

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Intermediate‐depth intraslab earthquakes in the Philippine Sea Plate occur at depths of 100–200 km beneath the Ryukyu Arc and are widely interpreted as manifestations of slab dehydration; however, the spatial variability in continuity of the volcanic front and the asymmetric distribution of volcanic activity are poorly explained by existing ...

Trench motion-controlled slab morphology and stress variations: Implications for the isolated 2015 Bonin Islands deep earthquake [PDF]

, 2017
The subducted old and cold Pacific Plate beneath the young Philippine Sea Plate at the Izu-Bonin trench over the Cenozoic hosts regional deep earthquakes.

Flux and Isotopic Composition of Sedimentary Carbon Subducting Along the World's Trenches

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
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.

Opening and Closure of the Sulu Sea: Revealed by Its Peripheral Subduction and Collision Processes

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The Sulu Sea is a small marginal sea in the western Pacific, but it is a very complex and tectonically active region, situated amidst the convergence of the Eurasian, Pacific, and India-Australian plates.

Gravity and geoid anomalies of the Philippine Sea: Evidence on the depth of compensation for the negative residual water depth anomaly [PDF]

A negative free-air gravity anomaly which occurs in the central part of the Philippine Sea was examined to determine the distribution and nature of possible regional mass excesses or deficiencies. Geoid anomalies from GEOS-3 observation were positive.

Horizontal coseismic deformation of the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake measured from SPOT satellite images: Implications for the seismic cycle along the western foothills of central Taiwan [PDF]

, 2003
The 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake, M_w = 7.6, broke a major thrust fault along the western foothills of the Central Range of Taiwan. We have measured the horizontal coseismic displacement field by correlating optical satellite images acquired before and after ...

Autocorrelation Seismic Imaging of Northern Taiwan Using Ambient Noise Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Over the past few million years, northern Taiwan records a tectonic history of subduction to arc–continent collision followed by post‐collisional collapse. This evolution motivates constraints on crustal structure, including crustal layering and thickness.
