Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 593-619, April 2026.ABSTRACT Mesophotic reefs are located in low light conditions which, depending on the region, are usually found in water depths greater than ~30 m. They are less affected by ocean warming than reefs found in shallower water depths and thus might become increasingly important for the sustainability of marine biodiversity.

The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)
Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 802-837, April 2026.ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

Giant Porphyry Copper Deposits Caused by a Slab Jamming in the Mantle Transition Zone
Terra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 106-115, April 2026.ABSTRACT Two giant porphyry copper deposits in the Southern Central Andes formed during the Miocene–Pliocene transition when a bend in the subducting Juan de Fernández hotspot chain jammed in the mantle transition zone, causing mega‐scale slab‐kinking. This geometry implies mechanical resistance that caused East–West compression and eventually a thrust‐

Exceptionally Elongated Strike‐Slip Rupture Caused by the 2025 MW 7.8 Myanmar Earthquake
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract The interplay between fault geometry and rupture behavior remains poorly understood. The 2025 Myanmar earthquake ruptured the Sagaing fault, a major continental strike‐slip fault with simple geometry. We integrated geodetic and teleseismic observations to investigate its rupture process through finite‐fault kinematic inversions and back ...

Distant Storms Can Affect Seismic Noise Crustal Monitoring
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract Using seismic noise interferometry to monitor the Earth's interior relies on continuous seismic wavefields produced by stable, invariant sources. In numerous applications, this condition is relaxed, arguing that secondary scattering effects render the late coda source independent.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract Oblique slow rifting in a hotspot setting has created a distributed volcanic zone in the central part of the Azores but it's unclear what causes focusing of magma upflow under the islands within a wide plate boundary deformation zone. For São Jorge Island, we use a three‐dimensional finite element model to evaluate crustal stress from the ...
