Current and Future Potential Distribution of the Invasive Thrips Echinothrips americanus (Terebrantia: Thripidae) Under Global Climate Change

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The study predicted the potential global distribution of invasive pest Echinothrips americanus using MaxEnt models, revealing its primary habitats concentrated in Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and Africa (total area ~ 3.41 × 107 km2). Under future climate scenarios, marginally suitable areas are projected to contract significantly, while ...

Ground‐Motion Characterization for the 2025 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
We develop the ground‐motion characterization (GMC) for the 2025 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (NSHM‐PRVI) for earthquakes in active crustal, subduction interface, and subduction intraslab regimes. Using ground‐motion models (GMMs) from the Next‐Generation Attenuation (NGA)‐West2 and NGA‐Subduction ...

Suitability of Ground‐Motion Models for Seismic Hazard Assessments in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
We perform linear mixed‐effects analyses with a ground‐motion dataset to evaluate how well ground‐motion models (GMMs) fit active crustal, subduction interface, and subduction intraslab earthquakes in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Most of the GMMs reproduce the spatial variation in peak ground motions with earthquake magnitude and rupture ...

2025 U.S. Geological Survey National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands: Overview of Model and Hazard Results

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
The U.S. Geological Survey recently updated the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). The first version of the PRVI NSHM was released in 2003, and therefore this 2025 update includes over 20 years of new geologic, geophysical, and engineering data, methods, and models.

The 2025 Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model Update: Ground Motion Model Selection and Comparison

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
We evaluate, select, and describe the ground‐motion models (GMMs) used in the 2025 update of the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). We identify the most appropriate models that align with GMM selection criteria for use in the PRVI region to improve the accuracy of seismic hazard assessments ...
