New 2010 Maule Aftershock Catalog Reveals Structure of the Deep Subduction Interface

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract On 27 February 2010, a Mw 8.8 earthquake occurred near Maule in south‐central Chile. The subsequent rapid deployment of a dense network of seismic stations on land was able to capture the first year of its aftershock sequence. Here, we revisit this data set using picking Artificial Intelligence tools, a 3D velocity model of the region and ...

Lithospheric Rheology in Southern California Derived From Novel Observations of Lake Unloading

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Recent Lake Cahuilla has undergone repeated filling and drying cycles over the past millennium, resulting in lithospheric and mantle loading responses. Two critical but less well‐constrained factors influencing these responses are the elastic plate thickness and mantle relaxation time.

Imaging Near‐Surface Bedrock Fracturing and Fluid Pathways Using Seismic Attenuation and Velocity From Viscoacoustic Full‐Waveform Inversion of Refraction Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Seismic attenuation provides sensitivity to fracture density, fluid saturation, and pore geometry that complements velocity, enabling quantitative imaging of fracture architecture and associated fluid‐pathways in near‐surface bedrock. Yet high‐resolution attenuation models remain rare in refraction studies due to amplitude‐fidelity and ...

Thermochemical Controls on the X, 410, and 660 Discontinuities in the Central Mediterranean

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The mantle beneath the Central Mediterranean is thermally and compositionally heterogeneous, as indicated by fragmented and locally stagnant slabs in tomographic images and HIMU‐like anorogenic magmatism. Mantle discontinuities are sensitive to both temperature and composition, and thus provide a way to quantify these heterogeneities.

Multi‐Scale Spatial Variations in Pacific Mantle Seismic Anisotropy: Constraints on Plate Evolution and Asthenospheric Flow

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We present array‐scale (∼500 × 500 km) anisotropic shear‐velocity models from two Pacific ocean‐bottom seismometer (OBS) arrays of the OBS Research in the Convecting Asthenosphere (ORCA) experiment: Young ORCA (∼43 Ma) and Old ORCA (∼90 Ma). Rayleigh‐wave phase velocities spanning 5–150 s are combined with Love‐wave phase velocities from 5 to ...

Reappraisal of Holocene Caldera Resurgence at Campi Flegrei (Southern Italy): A Long‐Lived Magma‐Driven Resurgent Dome System

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Caldera systems commonly experience inner resurgence, which shapes patterns of volcanic activity. However, incomplete reconstructions of past ground deformation can lead to incorrect recognition of precursory signals. The Campi Flegrei caldera (Italy) provides an exceptional opportunity to address this issue as uplifted marine sediments ...

Kinematics and Dynamics of Normal Faults in Southern Tibet: Insights From the 2025 Mw 7.1 Dingri Earthquake

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Normal faults in southern Tibet have long suffered from limited ground‐based seismic and geodetic observations, constraining our understanding of both interseismic and coseismic processes and their interactions. The 2025 Mw 7.1 Dingri earthquake provides an opportunity to address these gaps.

Bayesian Inference of Fault Slip Heterogeneity and Overlap: Application to 2019 Ridgecrest Earthquakes and Afterslip

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Fault slip occurs in both seismic and aseismic styles with spatial variability across scales, yet non‐unique source inference limits our ability to resolve slip complexity and dynamics. Here we evaluate the effect of spatial smoothing regularization in Bayesian frameworks by comparing an unregularized (BUR) approach that samples distributed ...

Dislocation Bands and Subboundaries in Experimentally Deformed Olivine

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Transmission electron microscopy imaging of dislocations in olivine indicates heterogeneous structures and diversity of dislocation types. However, the volumes imaged at high resolution are smaller than individual grains even of fine‐grained samples.
