Geophysical assessment of subsurface conditions at proposed building sites: implications for foundation failure and building collapse [PDF]

, 2018
Building collapse has been a recurrent environmental hazard in Nigeria in the last two decades. This is a corollary of inadequate foundation investigation prior to construction, poor government policies, and general lack of awareness on the importance of

Interior Rifting Coupled With Peripheral Subduction in the Rodinia Supercontinent: New Insights From the Tarim Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract After assembly, supercontinents are shaped by internal rifting and peripheral subduction. However, the geodynamic relationship between these two processes and their respective contributions to supercontinent breakup remain poorly understood.

Radiolysis and Fe‐Biotite Alteration: Questioning the Origin of H2‐Bearing Fluid Inclusions in the Yorke Peninsula Granites, South Australia

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Multiple drillings in the Yorke Peninsula, South Australia, recently confirmed the presence of natural hydrogen (H2) in shallow sedimentary units. While radiolysis and Fe‐oxidation in the basement are potential generation mechanisms, their respective contributions remain unconstrained.

Stress Model of California: Fault‐Stress Interactions Across a Complex Plate Boundary System From Focal Mechanisms of Small Earthquakes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract California, located along the transform boundary between the Pacific and North American plates, hosts a complex fault system, a long history of damaging earthquakes, and frequent small earthquakes. While earthquakes arise from the buildup and release of elastic stress, detailed knowledge of principal stress orientations, absolute stress ...

Thermodynamic Constraints on H2 Production and Habitability From Mg‐Rich Serpentinites as Mars Analogs

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Serpentinization produces hydrogen and methane through abiotic water‐rock interactions, potentially supporting chemotrophic life in planetary subsurface environments. Serpentine deposits in the Martian Noachian landscapes of Nili Fossae and the Southern Highlands have been considered as potential paleo‐habitable zones. However, the geochemical

Hardness Toxicity and Multi‐Route, Multi‐Demographic Health Risks of Nitrate‐Contaminated Groundwater: A Call for Sustainable Environmental and Public Health Protection

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Groundwater contamination by nitrate and hardness poses critical challenges to environmental sustainability and public health across many regions. This research pioneers an integrated assessment of nitrate multi‐route exposure for six‐age groups and hardness toxicity in Ghana.

Quantitative Assessment of Peridotite Tectonomagmatic Affinities Using Compositional Data Analysis and Explainable Machine Learning

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Peridotites record the compositional evolution of the lithospheric and asthenospheric mantle across plume‐related lithospheres, convergent margins, and rift‐related volcanic environments; however, their tectonomagmatic affinities are commonly difficult to resolve using traditional low‐dimensional geochemical discrimination diagrams.
