Low Hazard–High Risk: A Case Study of the Active Mangatangi Fault
Activity on low deformation rate faults are challenging to quantify and comparatively understudied. One such fault, the Mangatangi Fault, strikes NE‐SW along the southeastern flanks of the Hunua Ranges c. 52 km south of New Zealand's most populous city, Auckland.

The Milun Fault forms the northernmost onshore segment of the Longitudinal Valley fault system, a plate‐boundary suture between the Eurasian and Philippine Sea plates in eastern Taiwan, and poses a significant seismic hazard to Hualien City. Despite destructive earthquakes in 1951 and 2018, the shallow structure, long‐term slip behavior, and ...

Abstract The turnover rate of microbial cells drops steeply by increasing depth in the seabed, in accordance with the decreasing rate of organic matter mineralization. Bacterial endospore formation and germination may take place concurrently, yet their coupling to the mineralization rates during burial is poorly understood.

A global assessment of abyssal–hadal vermiform lebensspuren: Functional consistency with depth
Abstract Lebensspuren—sedimentary traces produced by benthic organisms—are widespread on deep‐sea floors but remain infrequently reported from abyssal (~ 3000–6000) and hadal (> 6000 m) environments. Here, we present the most comprehensive assessment of abyssal–hadal vermiform lebensspuren to date, spanning multiple ocean basins and reaching full‐ocean

Connections Between Surface and Subsurface Temperature Anomalies
Abstract Temperature anomalies, such as marine heatwaves and cold spells, are often studied as sea‐surface phenomena. Substantial temperature anomalies are also present in the subsurface, but subsurface temperature data are sparser. Here we use 1° × 1° × 7 day resolution ocean temperature maps from 1993 to 2023 to explore the dominant relation of ...
