Crustal Responses to the Destruction of Continental Lithosphere: Insights From Radial Anisotropy of the Tanlu Fault Zone, Eastern China

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Since the Mesozoic, much of the eastern China lithosphere was removed through thermo‐mechanical erosion and delamination, yet the effects on the overlying crust remain unclear. The Tanlu Fault Zone (TLFZ), the region's largest lithosphere‐scale weakness, offers a natural laboratory to assess crustal responses to lithospheric destruction.

Interseismic, Coseismic, and Early Postseismic Slip Associated With the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Unraveling the surface deformation and fault kinematics during the seismic cycle is crucial for understanding earthquake physics. Herein, we use geodetic and seismic observations to quantify the interseismic coupling, coseismic rupture, and postseismic afterslip associated with the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake.

Apollo 17 Lunar Surface Gravimeter as a Seismometer: Relocating Shallow‐Moonquake Sources and Implications for Source Mechanism

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Among the reported seismic events on the Moon, shallow moonquakes are known for their unique features, such as high‐frequency energy excitation, similarity to intraplate earthquakes, and the largest energy release of all reported moonquakes. Despite these interesting features, a small number of samples (<80 events) and sparse seismic network ...

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

Geophysical 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.

Seismic Imaging Reveals Ongoing Modification of Craton Margins in Northeast Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Cratonic margins are commonly modified, yet the processes responsible remain debated. The Korean Peninsula, situated between adjacent cratons, the Japan Trench, and a back‐arc system, provides a natural setting to investigate this problem. Using 4 years of dense seismic observations, we image upper‐mantle structure beneath the peninsula with P‐

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

Geophysical 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.
