Stress Model of California: Fault‐Stress Interactions Across a Complex Plate Boundary System From Focal Mechanisms of Small Earthquakes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract California, located along the transform boundary between the Pacific and North American plates, hosts a complex fault system, a long history of damaging earthquakes, and frequent small earthquakes. While earthquakes arise from the buildup and release of elastic stress, detailed knowledge of principal stress orientations, absolute stress ...

Crustal and Upper Mantle Structure Beneath the Corinth Rift Using Receiver Function Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The Gulf of Corinth is one of the fastest‐extending continental rifts in Europe, yet the link between present‐day strain, inherited crustal structure, and lithospheric dynamics remains debated. We investigate crustal thickness and Vp/Vs variations using receiver functions from 31 seismic stations.

Nine‐Year L‐Band InSAR Time Series of Tectonic and Non‐Tectonic Surface Deformation in Northern California

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This study evaluates the performance of ALOS‐2 ScanSAR time series for resolving tectonic, volcanic, hydrologic, and geomorphic deformation across Northern California. Beginning in 2021, ALOS‐2 acquired ScanSAR data with a 14‐day repeat interval over the region, providing the closest available analog to the recently launched NISAR mission. The

Fault Volume Digital Twin to Reproduce the Full Slip Spectrum, Scaling, and Statistical Laws

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Seismological and geodetic observations of fault zones reveal diverse slip dynamics, scaling, and statistical laws. Existing mechanisms explain some but not all of these behaviors. We show that incorporating an off‐fault damage zone—characterized by distributed fractures surrounding a main fault—can reproduce many key features observed in ...

Influence of Temperature on Seismic Moment as a Diagnostic for Crustal Permeability Creation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding what controls permeability is important in modulating crustal processes and the recovery of fuels and energy from the subsurface. Permeability may be created by the reactivation of fractures creating connected flow pathways that result in microearthquakes (MEQs).

Geodetic Resolution of the Interplay Between Earthquakes and Slow Slip in the Hikurangi Margin

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Interactions between slow slip and earthquakes remain poorly understood. We examine such an interaction in the central Hikurangi subduction zone where several moderate (Mw 4–5+) earthquakes occurred during a deep, 2‐year M7 slow slip event that started in 2021.

Autocorrelation Seismic Imaging of Northern Taiwan Using Ambient Noise Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Over the past few million years, northern Taiwan records a tectonic history of subduction to arc–continent collision followed by post‐collisional collapse. This evolution motivates constraints on crustal structure, including crustal layering and thickness.
