Fluid Injection Triggers Large‐Scale Slow‐Slip Activation of the Rocky Mountain Fold and Thrust Belt

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Using interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) we show that hydraulic fracturing treatments near the subsurface deformation limit of the Rocky Mountain Fold and Thrust Belt produced 12 intraplate, aseismic, slow‐slip events with magnitudes Mw ${M}_{w}$ 4.71–5.06 at 1,640–2,410 m depths.

Evolving plate boundaries in the Aegean–Anatolian region [PDF]

, 2019
My thesis focuses on evolving and (geologically) short-lived plate boundary segments, their segmentation processes and geological imprints in the eastern Mediterranean. In Chapter 2, I investigate the nature/type of the plate boundary between the eastern

Impact Craters Reveal a Deeper Rock‐Poor Regolith in the Lunar Highlands

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract The only measurements of the highlands regolith occurred at the Apollo 14 and 16 landing sites, finding 10–15 m thick regolith; however, we show that the Apollo landing sites are anomalous due to their proximity to rare, highlands rocky craters and because they landed atop basin ejecta. Through observations of rocky crater populations, we show

Fault‐Controlled Plumbing System Beneath Lipari Volcanic Island Revealed by Seismic Matrix Imaging

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Lipari Island hosts an active magmatic–hydrothermal system, but its deep plumbing architecture remains poorly resolved due to strong seismic scattering. We apply passive seismic matrix imaging to public vertical‐component cross‐correlation functions from the dense 2018 Lipari nodal array, recovering relative‐reflectivity structures to ∼10 km ...

Seismic data reveal eastern Black Sea Basin structure [PDF]

, 2005
Rifted continental margins are formed by progressive extension of the lithosphere. The development of these margins plays an integral role in the plate tectonic cycle, and an understanding of the extensional process underpins much hydrocarbon ...

Melt‐Regulated Crustal Kinematics in the Pamir, NW Tibetan Plateau: Insights From Surface‐Wave Tomography

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract The Pamir, located at the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is undergoing E–W extension within its interior, accommodated by micro‐block motions along major fault systems; however, the mechanisms governing this modern block kinematics remain elusive.

Gateway exchange, climatic forcing and circulation of the Mediterranean Sea during the late Miocene: A model perspective [PDF]

, 2017
Oceanen transporteren - en fungeren als opslag van - grote hoeveelheden warmte, zout, en andere chemische verbindingen, waaronder CO2. Ze zijn daarom een belangrijk onderdeel van het aardse klimaatsysteem.

Underestimation of Planetary Contraction Due To Obscuration by Surface Roughness: The Case of Mercury

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Estimating Mercury's radial contraction is key to understanding the planet's geodynamic evolution. Contraction has been inferred from mapped shortening structures, whose heterogeneous distribution contradicts the isotropic contraction expected from global cooling.

Zones of concentrated deformation (flower structures): field observations and modeling data

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2018
Our study was focused on narrow linear zones that penetrate to different depths the crust and have complex infrastructure. Rocks in such zones are more intensively tectonically altered in comparison with the background.
