A Numerical Study on the Role of Wear During Seismic Cycles of Rough Faults
Abstract Fault zones mature through the accumulation of slip from multiple earthquakes and the wearing of contact asperities at multiple scales. This study examines how wear affects the evolution of fault seismicity, focusing on earthquake nucleation, recurrence, and moment partitioning.

Abstract Submesoscale processes are important contributors to the global heat budget and generally support upward heat transport through restratification. However, in salinity‐stratified regions, such as the northern Gulf of Mexico with its influx of freshwater from the Mississippi‐Atchafalaya river system, temperature can act like a passive tracer and

Felsic Magmatism on Venus Generated by Crustal Recycling and Melting
Abstract The observation of low viscosity lava flows and shield volcanoes on radar images, combined with X‐ray fluorescence analyses performed by Soviet landers, strongly suggests that Venus's crust is primarily basaltic. However, near‐infrared emissivity data from the Galileo and Venus Express missions indicate that crustal plateaus may be ...

Abstract Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are naturally occurring electrical currents that flow through the Earth and long conductive infrastructure, such as power lines, during geomagnetic storms. GICs in the electric power grid can cause damage to electric power transformers, system failures, and wide‐scale blackouts.

Bending the Sierra Madre Oriental: A Paleocene Orocline
Abstract The Sierra Madre Oriental belt of the Mexican thin‐skinned fold‐and‐thrust belt, which formed during the Late Cretaceous due to the subduction of the Farallon Plate beneath North America, exhibits a pronounced curvature of approximately 100°, concave to the southwest.
