Uplift of the Transantarctic Mountains: Evidence for an Evolving and Long‐Lived Rayleigh‐Taylor Instability

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Rayleigh‐Taylor instabilities within the upper mantle are investigated as a mechanism for the uplift of rift‐margin mountain ranges within the continents. Our focus is on the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM). These mountains form at the margin between East and West Antarctica and have been free from the effects of subduction for about 500 ...

Terrestrial Poor Ecohealth Areas Continue to Expand Across Asian Drylands

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The 7th Rio declaration principle emphasizes global collaboration to protect and restore ecosystem health. While dryland ecosystem health (EH) remains critical to global sustainability agendas, its long‐term regional dynamics remain poorly constrained across the Asian drylands (AD), where land management decisions increasingly shape ecological

Crustal Thickness Inversion From Magmatic Geochemistry Reveals Spatiotemporal Evolution and Two‐Stage Uplift of the Iranian Plateau

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Cenozoic topographic growth of the Iranian Plateau, situated at the Arabia‐Eurasia collision front, provides insights into continental collision dynamics. However, the relative contributions of tectonic shortening versus deep mantle processes to crustal thickening remain debated because systematic quantitative constraints on paleo‐crustal ...

Highly Enriched and Heterogeneous Mantle Signals Recorded in Mantle Pyroxenite Veins

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Earth's mantle is inherently heterogeneous, reflecting ongoing mantle depletion and crustal recycling driven by plate tectonics. Radiogenic isotopes in oceanic basalts are commonly used to characterize mantle reservoirs, but the full chemical diversity of mantle‐derived melts may be obscured by magma mixing during melt transport and ...

Model‐Based Analysis of Ionospheric TEC Disturbances Over China and Adjacent Regions During the May 2024 Super Geomagnetic Storm

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study uses observation data from multi‐constellation (GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/BeiDou) ground‐based Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) networks and a non‐integrated spherical harmonic function modeling methodology to develop an ionospheric Total Electron Content (TEC) model with high spatiotemporal resolution (1° × 1° in longitude and ...
