Multi‐Stage Shallow Rupture and Pre‐Event Shallow Deformation During the 2025 Mw 5.9 Asadabad Earthquake (Afghanistan)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The 31 August 2025 Mw 5.9 Asadabad earthquake in eastern Afghanistan caused severe damage despite its moderate magnitude, raising questions about rupture processes and seismic hazard in the southern Hindu Kush. Using Sentinel‐1 InSAR and teleseismic waveform modeling, we reveal a complex, multi‐stage shallow (4–5 km) rupture involving the ...

Large Earthquakes Along the Mendocino Oceanic Transform Fault Hardly Have Any Foreshocks

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Compared to continental strike‐slip faults, oceanic transform faults (OTFs) are thought to mainly slip aseismically and host significantly more foreshocks triggered by precursory aseismic slip which enhance the mainshocks' short‐term predictability. However, long‐term high‐resolution observational constraints remain limited.

The 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Megathrust: A Rapid Recurrence With Complex Heterogeneous Rupture

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract On 29 July 2025, a Mw 8.8 earthquake struck Kamchatka, ∼50 km from the 1952 Mw 9.0 megathrust hypocenter, exhibiting a comparable aftershock zone. We resolve the kinematic rupture process and slip distribution by combining teleseismic waveforms with high‐quality tsunami data.

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.
