Seafloor Displacements Across the Mid‐Ocean Ridge Eruption Cycle Modulated by Mush Zone Viscosity

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Mid‐ocean ridges (MORs) are active volcanic systems where axial magma lenses (AMLs) are replenished on decadal time scales, enabling frequent dike intrusions. The associated seafloor deformation, however, remains scarcely understood. Here we assess this deformation by simulating cycles of steady AML inflation followed by instantaneous dike ...

Two Distinct Growth Styles of Riedel Shear Zones in Cratonic Strike‐Slip Fault System, Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The kinematics and progressive evolution of Riedel shear zones have been extensively studied, yet the factors controlling their distinct evolutionary styles in natural settings remain debated. Understanding such fracture network architecture has great implications, such as predicting subsurface fluid flow and assessing seismic hazards.

Seismic Characteristics of the Gas Hydrate System in the Mackenzie Trough of the Canadian Beaufort Sea, Arctic Ocean

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We present a comprehensive seismic characterization of the gas hydrate system in the outer continental shelf of the Mackenzie Trough, Canadian Beaufort Sea, based on recently acquired multichannel seismic (MCS) data, P‐wave velocity modeling, and 3D thermal modeling. We identified high‐amplitude, reverse‐polarity Bottom‐Simulating Reflections (

Physics‐Informed Machine Learning Framework to Retroactively Estimate Mantle Thermal Convection From Partial Geophysical Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Mantle convection drives the solid Earth, powering plate motions, volcanism, and earthquakes while regulating planetary heat loss. Reconstructing its history is hampered by sparse, noisy observations concentrated near the surface and the present day. Here I develop an inverse physics‐informed neural network framework to estimate mantle thermal

Post‐Collisional Evolution in the Southern Variscan Belt: Insights From Numerical Modeling of the Valpelline Series (Western Alps)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The post‐collisional evolution of orogenic belts is commonly marked by high‐temperature metamorphism and widespread magmatism, yet the processes linking collision to post‐collisional dynamics remain difficult to reconstruct due to limited exposure of deep‐crustal levels and uncertainties in the determination of pressure‐temperature conditions ...
