OBS Data Mining Reveals Seismic Structure and Dynamics of the Oceanic Blanco Transform Fault, Northeast Pacific

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Deformation along oceanic transform faults is partitioned between seismic and aseismic slip, controlled by lithology, thermal structure, and fluid circulation. We analyze one year of data from a 54‐station ocean bottom seismometer network deployed across the Blanco Transform Fault (BTF), Northeast Pacific.

Complex Shear‐Wave Splitting Behavior in the Northern Andes and Possible Implications for Mantle Flow Around the Caldas Tear

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We investigate shear‐wave splitting of SKS and SKKS phases from teleseismic earthquakes to study the anisotropic structure of the lithosphere and upper mantle beneath the Colombian Andes. This area is shaped by complex interactions between the subducting Nazca and Caribbean plates beneath the South American plate. A recent broadband deployment

Cajon Pass and the Southern San Andreas Fault System: Earthquake Cycle Stress Accumulation and Present‐Day Loading

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract With over a century since the last major rupture affecting the wider Los Angeles region, tectonic stress has steadily built along the southern San Andreas and San Jacinto fault systems, raising concerns of an imminent large earthquake. Cajon Pass, located at the junction of these faults, represents a critical site for potential through‐going ...

Hydrological Impact of Earthquakes on Reverse and Normal Faults: Results From Numerical Models

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract I investigate earthquake‐induced hydrological signals related to poroelastic deformation, thermal pressurization, fault‐zone dilatancy and rupture of a pressurized reservoir at depth. This is performed using a two dimensional plane strain model that simulates ruptures on reverse and normal faults governed by rate‐and‐state friction coupled to ...

First Direct Observations of Internal Flow Structures in a Powder Snow Avalanche: Turbulence, Instability and Particle Distribution

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Powder snow avalanches are highly dynamic, multiphase gravity‐driven flows typically composed of a dense basal layer overlain by airborne layers in which snow particles are suspended within a turbulent air phase. Despite extensive work on related systems such as pyroclastic density currents and turbidity currents, all gravity current studies ...
