Evolution of P‐wave Anisotropy as an Indicator of Pre‐failure Deformation in Shale

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Understanding the multiscale mechanical behavior of clay‐rich rocks is critical for assessing fault reactivation and the long‐term integrity of underground waste repositories. This study investigates the evolution of microdeformation in Tournemire's shale samples under compressive stress by integrating high‐resolution imaging (from an ...

Seismic Constraints of the 23 November 2025 Hayli Gubbi Eruption Sequence in Afar, Ethiopia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract On 23 November 2025, the Hayli Gubbi volcano in Afar (Ethiopia) erupted in a massive explosion. We present the first seismic characterization using data from 13 regional seismological stations. Seismograms reveal signals consisting of a minute‐long precursor, a main eruptive phase, and secondary events hours later.

Gamma Rays Signal the Vulnerability of Forest to Extreme Drought

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Extreme drought and heat are driving forest die‐off globally, yet regional‐scale mapping of subsurface water storage capacity, governing forest vulnerability, remains a major challenge. Here, we demonstrate that airborne gamma‐ray spectrometry (GRS) of potassium (40K) decay provides a powerful proxy for subsurface constraints on water ...

Seismic Tremor as a Precursor to Hydrothermal Explosions Near Mutnovsky Volcano (Kamchatka)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Mutnovsky Volcano, ∼70 km SW of Petropavlovsk‐Kamchatsky, exhibits persistent degassing, hosts active hydrothermal springs and the Mutnovsky Geothermal Power Plant (MGPP) on its slopes. Using the network covariance matrix approach, we analyzed seismic data recorded in 2023–2024 by 15 seismic stations operating around Mutnovsky Volcano.

Potential Bias in Inferred Megathrust Slip Rates Induced by the Neglect of Material Heterogeneity

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Accurate knowledge of the pattern of interseismic coupling on megathrusts is critical to preparing for future earthquakes and tsunamis. However, published models for a given fault zone commonly differ widely, making hazard assessment difficult.
