The Role of Fluids in Fault Mechanics: A 16‐Year Analysis of the Irpinia Seismicity (Southern Italy)
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Fluids in the crust influence earthquake nucleation by affecting fault strength and rupture dynamics, but direct observations at seismogenic depths are rare. We study the Irpinia Fault System in Southern Italy, site of the 1980 M 6.9 earthquake, to understand how fluid overpressure, fault orientation, and regional stress control earthquake ...

Characteristics of Seismic Energy Rate Functions of Shallow Tremors
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract We investigated the energy rate functions of shallow tremors southeast of the Kii Peninsula in the Nankai subduction zone. Unimodal functions (triangle or bell‐shaped) explain the characteristics of small (<104 J) shallow tremors. As the seismic radiated energy increases, the energy rate functions become more complex and are better ...

How Volume Increases the Mobility of Geophysical Granular Flow: A Unified Rheological Perspective
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Geophysical granular flows, involving rapidly flowing granular materials, can exhibit volume‐enhanced mobility. Lacking a mechanistic understanding of such size effects limits the applications of lab‐scale findings to natural events. Using discrete element method simulations, we find that increasing granular system size suppresses energy ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract At frequently erupting volcanoes, magma and volatiles ascend through established pathways, but the complete picture of their branching and supply system remains unclear. We integrated self‐potential (SP), broadband magnetotelluric (MT), and helium isotope observations to image magma and volatile pathways beneath Sakurajima Volcano.

Layered Seismic Anisotropy and Tectonics of the Anatolian Plate
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Anatolian tectonics are associated with slab retreat in the west and gravitational potential energy and continental collision in the east, leading to westward motion of Anatolia relative to Eurasia, partially accommodated on the North and East Anatolian transform faults.

The analysis of solar models: Neutrinos and oscillations [PDF]
Tests of solar neutrino flux and solar oscillation frequencies were used to assess standard stellar structure theory. Standard and non-standard solar models are enumerated and discussed.

Partial Ruptures, Cascading Multi‐Fault Ruptures, and Aftershocks in 2D Random Fault Network
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract The Gutenberg‐Richter law for the distribution of earthquake magnitude and the Omori law for the decay of aftershocks are two universal laws in seismicity. Although numerical models have been developed to reproduce these laws, they sometimes produce many more foreshocks and fewer aftershocks than observed.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Laboratory experiments and theoretical models suggest that earthquakes are preceded by extended nucleation phases, perhaps by slow but accelerating slip. However, such nucleation phases are hard to observe before natural earthquakes. Here we identify clustered foreshock sequences that could be nucleation signatures.
