New Insights Into Hikurangi Subduction Inputs and Megathrust Host Rocks Spanning Along‐Margin Changes in Fault Slip Behavior

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The seismic behavior of subduction megathrusts varies spatially and is influenced by the properties of subducting plates, including their sedimentary cover. Characterizing these subduction inputs is essential for understanding the mechanisms behind fault slip variability.

Rift Development, Tectonic Forcings, and Magmatic Feedbacks at Santorini and Kolumbo Volcanoes Constrained by Scientific Drilling and Core‐Seismic Integration

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Volcanism in continental rifts, rifted volcanic arcs, and back‐arc basins is fundamentally coupled with crustal extension. However, the precise geometry and timing of the fault systems that facilitate magma transport and accommodate extension remain poorly constrained.

Role of Mid‐ and High‐Latitude, Southern Hemisphere Processes for Ushering in the Middle Pleistocene Transition

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Glacial‐interglacial cycles increased in length from about 41 to 100 thousand years during the Middle Pleistocene Transition (MPT) about 1.5 to 0.8 million years ago. This took place in step with strong global cooling after several million years of weaker cooling.

Stratigraphy and sedimentology of Pliocene limestones in northern Hawke's Bay: The Opoiti, Whakapunake and Tahaenui Limestones

, 2011
The Opoiti, Whakapunake and Tahaenui Limestone formations (Opoitian to Waipipian; Pliocene) crop out extensively in northern Hawke’s Bay between Wairoa and Mahia Peninsula where they are encased within mudstone dominated Wairoa Formation.

Arc Heat Flow and Magmatic Heat Budgets

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract We evaluate hydrothermal heat loss from 11 volcanic‐arc segments (∼6,000 km of arc length, ∼10% of the global total), motivated by the observation that much magmatic heat ultimately crosses the land surface as heated aqueous fluid. Heat loss takes place by volcanic eruption, geothermal heat conduction to the surface, fumarolic (vapor ...
