User Acceptance and Perceptions of Earthquake Early Warning Systems as a Function of Information Type: The Case of Postearthquake Nepal

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
What drives user perceptions and acceptance of earthquake early warning systems (EEWS) as an emerging technology? Do distinct types of transparency into EEWS affect users’ perceptions of the system's usefulness and desirability differently? To address these questions, we focus on Nepal, an earthquake‐prone country with no active public EEWS ...

Rapid City‐Scale Earthquake Assessment by Combining Numerical Simulation and Sparse Sensing

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This study proposes a framework to assess the seismic risk by integrating city‐scale numerical simulations with sensor data prediction. The study begins with advanced numerical simulations using two primary methods: the integrated earthquake simulator (IES) and the stochastic Green's function method.

The 2025 Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model Update: Ground Motion Model Selection and Comparison

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
We evaluate, select, and describe the ground‐motion models (GMMs) used in the 2025 update of the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). We identify the most appropriate models that align with GMM selection criteria for use in the PRVI region to improve the accuracy of seismic hazard assessments ...

Evaluation of Earthquake‐Induced Slope Displacements in Greater Vancouver Based on Probabilistic Framework and Using NBCC 2020 and EqDisp Code Platform

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
Engineers frequently use simplified seismic slope displacement procedures to evaluate the performance of earth structures and natural slopes. Current practices typically adopt Newmark‐type and semi‐empirical seismic displacement prediction models (SDPMs) to estimate the seismic slope displacements (D) based on ground motion intensity measures at a ...

Automated Three‐Dimensional Reflection Traveltime Modelling to Extract 3D Dipping Layer Geometries

open access: yesGeophysical Prospecting, Volume 74, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Steep geological structures are critical for improved understanding of tectonic processes and fluid circulation, particularly in crystalline settings. However, accurately determining their geometry at depth remains a challenge for conventional 2D surveys.

Regional‐to‐Global Tectonic and Trench‐Morphology Effects of Oceanic Plateau Subduction

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Regional geodynamic modeling has shown that oceanic plateau subduction can modify the slab behavior. However, few studies have explored these interactions beyond 100 Myr in 3‐D spherical models. Using 3‐D spherical mantle convection models with self‐consistent plate‐like behavior, we investigate how the geometry and rheological properties of ...
