Stress Field and Megathrust Strength in the Western Hellenic Subduction System: Insights From the 2024 Mw 5.9 Strofades Earthquake Sequence, Greece

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract A M5.9 earthquake occurred on 29 March 2024, offshore near the Strofades Islands, in the western Hellenic Subduction System. Here we present high‐precision earthquake locations and focal mechanisms that suggest the rupture of a NNE‐SSW striking, left‐lateral strike‐slip fault.

Genetic Diversification in a New Guinean Frog Genus (Mantophryne, Microhylidae) was Driven by Ancient Tectonic Activity and Climate Reorganisation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our dated phylogeny and biogeographic analysis of Mantophryne, a microhylid frog genus endemic to New Guinea, revealed origins in the East Papuan Composite Terrane (EPCT) in the late Pliocene. Dispersal and diversification out from the EPCT was driven by tectonic activity and climate reorganisation, creating habitat corridors and isolations in the Late

Geodiversity is an inseparable but underutilized aspect of ecological connectivity assessments under climate change

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Conservation has shifted towards a climate change adaptation approach in which expected species range shifts are increasingly considered to mitigate effects of climate change and habitat fragmentation on biodiversity. As part of this, ecological connectivity needs to be ensured to support gene flow and viable populations in the face of changing ...

Regional Adjustments to NGA‐West2 Ground‐Motion Models for Turkey

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1313-1332, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a ground‐motion model updating (GMMU) framework to adjust NGA‐West2 models for predicting a set of intensity measures in Turkey, including peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and pseudo‐spectral acceleration (PSA) at periods ranging from 0.01 to 10 s. The GMMU framework integrates bias identification

User Acceptance and Perceptions of Earthquake Early Warning Systems as a Function of Information Type: The Case of Postearthquake Nepal

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
What drives user perceptions and acceptance of earthquake early warning systems (EEWS) as an emerging technology? Do distinct types of transparency into EEWS affect users’ perceptions of the system's usefulness and desirability differently? To address these questions, we focus on Nepal, an earthquake‐prone country with no active public EEWS ...
