Thermal Structure Beneath the Himalayan Orogen Revealed by Pn‐Wave Receiver Function Imaging

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The Himalayan orogen formed through convergence between the Indian and Eurasian plates, and parts of the subducting Indian crust were impeded by the Lhasa terrane and accreted into the orogen. However, whether the Indian lower crust was stripped from the downgoing plate and incorporated into the orogen, and by what mechanism, remain debated ...

Seismic Evidence for Slab Tearing Beneath the Indo‐Myanmar Subduction Zone

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Slab tearing has been increasingly recognized as a key geodynamic process influencing the evolution of the eastern Himalayan syntaxis. However, whether, where and how the subducted Indian slab beneath the Indo‐Myanmar subduction zone has been torn remains poorly constrained.

Generation Mechanisms of Intermediate‐Depth and Deep Earthquakes in Southwestern Japan: Implications for the Tearing or Thinning of the Pacific Slab

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract We performed a stress tensor inversion using focal mechanisms from intermediate‐depth and deep earthquakes to estimate the stress regime of the Pacific slab beneath southwestern Japan. We focused on the temporally averaged stress field derived from the recent 28‐year data set of the F‐net CMT solutions.

Interseismic Creep Along the Enriquillo–Plantain Garden Fault, Haiti, Estimated From InSAR

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The Enriquillo–Plantain Garden fault zone (EPGFZ) is a major left‐lateral strike‐slip fault in southern Haiti hosting several recent destructive earthquakes, including the 2021 MW 7.1 Nippes event with primary thrust‐slip. To investigate how strain is accommodated in the vicinity of the 2021 event, we analyzed Sentinel‐1 interferometric ...

The Effect of Hydraulic Fracturing on the 2021 Ms 6.0 Luxian Earthquake as Revealed by Deformation and Numerical Simulations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract This study investigates whether hydraulic fracturing contributed to the 2021 Ms 6.0 Luxian earthquake in the Sichuan Basin. Time‐series InSAR analysis of multi‐temporal Sentinel‐1 data reveals coseismic deformation associated with the 2021 Luxian earthquake and localized uplift near hydraulic fracturing platforms.

Lithosphere‐Asthenosphere Interactions Across the Indo‐Burma Subduction Zone From Sp Receiver Functions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The Cenozoic convergence between the Indian and Asian plates has driven large‐scale mantle convection that interacts with both plates. Understanding this convergence benefits from clear imaging of the lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB).

The Role of Mafic Intrusion in Seismotectonics: Insights From the 1668 M 8.5 Tancheng Earthquake Rupture Zone Along the Tan‐Lu Fault Zone, Eastern China

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The Tan‐Lu Fault Zone (TLFZ), the largest lithosphere‐scale strike‐slip fault in eastern China, has experienced multiple tectonic stages and remains high seismic activity, including the 1668 Tancheng earthquake (M 8.5). Here we employ dense‐array receiver functions to resolve crustal thickness, Vp/Vs ratio, and seismic discontinuities in the ...

Integrated Geophysical Imaging Reveals the Origin and Pathways of Mantle‐Derived CO2 Beneath the Tangra Yumco Rift, Central Tibet

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The Tangra Yumco Rift (TYR) in central Tibet is a key window for crust–mantle interactions during extension. We performed high‐resolution crust‐mantle imaging using receiver function analysis, 1‐D nonlinear S‐wave velocity inversion, and tomoDD tomography, revealing a vertical Crust–Mantle Degassing System (CMDS) bounded by the Zhala (ZF) and ...
