Mapping the Crustal Thickness of the Andes Using pmP Phases Identified From Adaptive Teleseismic Array Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Crustal thickness (or Moho depth) is a key parameter for many geological and geophysical models. Despite this we have a limited number of measurements, typically from seismic receiver functions, to constrain variations in crustal thickness.

Detection of Interannual and Fine‐Scale Plate Coupling Variations Using Intraplate Earthquakes and Geodetic Data: Application to the Tohoku‐Oki Plate Boundary

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We propose a method to infer detailed spatiotemporal variations in interplate coupling by integrating geodetic and seismic data. It examines whether focal mechanisms of intraplate earthquakes occurring near the plate interface align with the stressing rates caused by a geodetically derived slip‐deficit rate model, evaluating deviations from a ...

Seismic Velocity of Chlorite Under High Pressure and Temperature and Implications for the Lesser Antilles Subduction Zone

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Chlorite is thought to be one of the major water‐carrying phases in subduction zones, both within the slab and in the mantle wedge. Its presence has previously been linked to common seismological observations at subduction zones, including P and S wave anisotropy as well as high VP/VS ratios (>1.8) in the mantle wedge.

Imaging the Alpine Collision With Seismic Radial Anisotropy

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Alpine region and the adjacent Northern Apennines (NA) and Northern Dinarides record the complex tectonic evolution associated with the collision between the Eurasian and Adriatic plates. We combine Rayleigh and Love surface waves from ambient noise and earthquake data recorded at over 3,300 seismic stations to construct a high‐resolution ...

Inception and Plate Evolution of the Lau Back‐Arc Basin From Plate Boundary Refinements

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Back‐arc basins are important settings for crustal growth that form in response to both near and far‐field tectonic influences. To better understand the processes that control back‐arc basin initiation and evolution, we present a refined model of the kinematics of opening of the Lau Basin, embedded in a global plate model.

Probing the Elastic Anisotropy of Schistose Rocks West of the Tauern Window (Eastern Alps, Austria): The Largest Homogeneous Volume

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The anatomy of orogens is difficult to decipher as structural information is usually limited to surface and seismic data. Seismic properties are directionally dependent on anisotropic minerals, especially phyllosilicates. Due to tectonic complexity, the effect of anisotropy in seismic data is difficult to determine.
