3D Quantification of Subsidence During Pyrenean Retro‐Wedge Initiation: Role of Structural and Thermal Inheritance on Hyperextended Margin Inversion (Aquitaine Basin)

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 130-140, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We present novel 3D subsidence data enabling vertical movements' quantification during the early formation of the Pyrenean retro‐wedge. From Cenomanian to Turonian times, subsidence is relatively low (~26 ± 10 m/Myr), corresponding to a brief 10 Myr thermal re‐equilibration of the European lithosphere following the hyperextended rift episode ...

Crust-mantle decoupling revealed by seismic velocity anisotropy beneath Syowa Station, Antarctica

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1997
We analyzed shear wave splittings in the crust beneath Syowa Station, using Moho converted Ps waves. Three set of receiver functions and stacked receiver functions from Tonga events are analyzed.

Teleseismic Radial Anisotropy Reveals a Sill‐Dominated Magma Reservoir Beneath the Valles Caldera, New Mexico

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The Valles Caldera (VC), one of the largest Quaternary silicic calderas in North America, formed by explosive rhyolitic eruptions. Seismic studies suggest a crustal magmatic reservoir beneath the caldera with low‐velocity anomalies, but resolving the detailed geometry of localized melt requires constraints from seismic anisotropy.

New Constraints on the Calabrian Arc (Central Mediterranean) Geodynamics: High‐Resolution Imaging of Lithospheric and Upper Mantle Discontinuities From P and S Receiver Functions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The Calabrian Arc subduction system (Central Mediterranean) is characterized by a deep and narrow (200 km) slab. Addressing the poorly understood link between shallow and deep mantle structures, we present the first high‐resolution mapping of crustal and upper mantle discontinuities across the Calabrian Arc and Southern Tyrrhenian basin.

Differential Craton Destruction Controlled by Fossil Structures in the Central North China Craton

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Craton evolution plays a fundamental role in stabilizing the continental lithosphere and the long‐term evolution of Earth's surface environment. The Shanxi Rift Zone (SRZ) within the North China Craton marks an ongoing craton destruction. Detailed lithospheric structure is essential to explain craton destruction.

Review on crustal anisotropy investigations beneath the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau based on azimuthal variations of receiver functions

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评
Seismic anisotropy provides key information about the past and present deformations of the crust and mantle below and is crucial for understanding the interior structure of the Earth and deep dynamic processes.
