Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract The Wyoming Craton is often cited as an example of decratonization, implying the removal of its lithospheric keel. However, numerous geophysical imaging studies indicate the presence of thick mantle lithosphere beneath much of the Wyoming Craton.

Normal Modes in a Coupled Earth Model: A New Perspective on the Compliance Method
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract To understand the compliance parameters observed for atmospheric pressure waves, we develop a normal‐mode approach for a coupled Earth model that includes the atmosphere and the solid Earth. Extending the method of Press and Harkrider to a coupled Earth model, we introduce two new features.

Hydroacoustic Monitoring of Mayotte Submarine Volcano during Its Eruptive Phase
GeosciencesSubmarine volcanoes are more challenging to monitor than subaerial volcanoes. Yet, the large eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano in the Tonga archipelago in 2022 was a reminder of their hazardous nature and hence demonstrated the need to ...

On Seismic Waves (Third Paper) [PDF]
, 1936 In two previous papers under the present title 1) 2) the authors have presented data on bodily waves. The present paper contains the corresponding data on surface waves (including seismic sea waves), the magnitude and energy of earthquakes, and ...

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

Discovery of the largest historic silicic submarine eruption [PDF]
, 2014 It was likely twice the size of the renowned Mount St. Helens eruption of 1980 and perhaps more than 10 times bigger than the more recent 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption in Iceland.

Recolonization of Raoul Island by Kermadec red-crowned parakeets Cyanoramphus novaezelandiae cyanurus after eradication of invasive predators, Kermadec Islands archipelago, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2009 The Kermadec red-crowned parakeet Cyanoramphus novaezelandiae was driven to extinction on Raoul Island over 150 years ago by introduced cats Felis catus and rats (Rattus norvegicus and R. exulans).

Isotopic niche variability in macroconsumers of the East Scotia Ridge (Southern Ocean) hydrothermal vents: What more can we learn from an ellipse? [PDF]
, 2016 Aspects of between-individual trophic niche width can be explored through the isotopic niche concept. In many cases isotopic variability can be influenced by the scale of sampling and biological characteristics including body size or sex.
