Probabilistic Hazard Assessment of Coseismic Elastic Surface Deformation for the Leech River Valley–Devil's Mountain Fault System Using Stochastic Source Modeling

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
This study investigates the effect of incorporating the Devil's Mountain Fault (DMF) and its interaction with the Leech River Valley Fault (LRVF) on the elastic surface deformation hazard in and near the city of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Previously, the surface deformation hazard of the region has been characterized by considering the LRVF ...

Submarine‐channel meandering reset by landslide filling, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand

The Depositional Record
Landslides are among the largest mass movements on Earth. As such, the deposits of landslides, also known as mass‐transport deposits, are significant architectural elements of continental margins, especially those receiving sediment from large deltas ...

Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong

Weather, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 248-257, August 2026.
This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.

Inferring the Base of Submarine Permafrost in the Canadian Beaufort Sea From Seismic Data and the Depth of the Gas Hydrate Stability Zone

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The widespread presence of submarine permafrost in the southern Canadian Beaufort Sea provides necessary stability conditions for gas hydrates on the shallow shelf. However, the submarine permafrost is still relatively underexplored. Representing mostly relict terrestrial permafrost, submarine permafrost was formed by subaerial exposure to ...

Initial sea surface displacement of non-seismic tsunami associated with the 2020 sand point earthquake off the Alaska Peninsula

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science
Large earthquakes occurred sequentially around a seismic gap of the Aleutian Trench, with a magnitude of 7.8 in July 2020, 7.6 in October 2020, and 8.2 in July 2021.

Submarine Flank Collapses at Tagoro Volcano: Insights From Bathymetric Surveys and 3D Multiphase Simulations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Volcanic islands are prone to flank instabilities that can generate tsunamis even when mobilized volumes are moderate. This study investigates submarine collapses during the 2011–2012 eruption south of El Hierro, which built the Tagoro submarine volcano.

Basal Force Probability Distributions in Thin‐Layer Granular Flows

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Extreme geophysical flows, such as granular and debris flows, can significantly shape the landscape in steep lands and generate seismic signals that can be recorded over long distances. However, direct field measurements needed to constrain the granular physics remain difficult due to the damage potential of those flows.

Eocene to Miocene U‐Pb Geochronology Evolution of the Rio Grande Rise, Southwestern Atlantic: A Paleoceanographic Approach

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Rio Grande Rise (RGR) is a major submarine feature in the South Atlantic that plays an important role in regional oceanographic dynamics. This study presents new U‐Pb geochronology of sedimentary rocks from the RGR, offering direct age constraints on carbonate and apatite embedded within Fe‐Mn crusts and associated foraminifera fossils ...

Active Tectonics of the Eastern and Southern Alps ‐ Crustal Response to Deep Processes? A Review

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Owing to the low N‐S convergence rates between Adria and Europe, crustal deformation rates in the Alps and its forelands are low. Active tectonics are, therefore, difficult to study, especially as non‐tectonic landscape forming processes can erase or modify the tectonic surface imprint. Large‐scale and dense seismological data recently offered
