A Thermodynamic Framework for Turing‐Type Instabilities in Porous Media: Part II Applications

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Compaction bands, desiccation cracks, and melt segregation structures are geological patterns relying on the same fundamental manifestations of a universal Turing‐type instability mechanism, as predicted by the thermodynamically consistent reaction–cross‐diffusion framework developed in Part I (Regenauer‐Lieb et al., 2025, https://doi.org/10 ...

Heat Advection During Exhumation Can Explain High Temperatures Along the Subduction Plate Interface

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The pressure–temperature (P−T) $(P-T)$ evolution of subduction zone plate interfaces governs metamorphism, fluid migration, deformation, and seismicity. Temperature estimates from natural rocks are frequently higher than those predicted by subduction models, particularly for P< $P< $ 2.5 GPa.

A Global Evaluation of Lithology‐Dependent Marine Sediment Compaction Parameters and Their Uncertainties

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Tectonic subsidence, sea level, and paleoclimate reconstructions using marine records rely on accurate decompaction of the sediment column. Over time, increased overburden pressure from burial decreases sediment porosity with depth. The porosity‐depth relationship is lithology‐dependent and can be represented by an exponential function ...

Cenozoic Subduction Polarity Reversal Within the Celebes Sea Inferred From Teleseismic Tomography

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Sulawesi and Borneo are tectonically complex islands with multistage subduction histories stretching back through the Cenozoic. Seismic studies have played an important role in helping to unravel this history, with spatial distributions of earthquakes tracking actively subducting slabs. In contrast, old or relict aseismic slabs are illuminated

Comparing Slab Viscous Dissipation Under Slab Distributed Weakening and Slab Segmentation Scenarios

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Subduction of cold, dense oceanic lithosphere is a key driver of plate tectonics and mantle convection. However, how much gravitational potential energy is internally dissipated by slab deformation during subduction remains debated and largely depends on the mechanisms of slab weakening.
