Imaging slow failure in triaxially deformed Etna basalt using 3D acoustic-emission location and X-ray computed tomography

open access: yes, 2007
We have deformed basalt from Mount Etna (Italy) in triaxial compression tests under an effective confining pressure representative of conditions under a volcanic edifice (40 MPa), and at a constant strain rate of 5 similar to 10(-6) s(-1).

Multi‐Scale Rate‐ and Roughness‐Dependent Frictional Constitutive Law and Dynamic Earthquake Sequence Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The physical mechanisms that govern the multi‐scale source properties of earthquakes, such as fracture energy scaling, where the dynamic energy dissipation of earthquakes scales with fault slip, remain debatable. We introduced the rate‐ and roughness‐dependent friction (RRF) law which accounts for the multi‐scale roughness evolution of the ...

Calling: Earth #030 - Stephen McNutt, Volcano Seismologist

open access: yes, 2020
Stephen Steve McNutt, a Professor in the USF School of Geosciences, discusses his research of volcano seismology and how it can be applied to rocket launches, quarry blasts and other earth-shaking events.

Predictive Models for Postfire Debris Flow Initiation in the Southwest USA

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Postfire debris flows pose a threat to life and infrastructure and significantly contribute to sediment supply in upland channels, thereby impacting water quality, stream habitats, and landscape evolution. Models designed to assess postfire debris‐flow likelihood at the watershed scale in response to design or forecast rainstorms are ...

Near Vent Seismicity at the Tour Eiffel Vent Site, Lucky Strike Hydrothermal Field, Mid-Atlantic Ridge

open access: yesSeismica
Secondary hydrothermal circulation is created by local entrainment of cold seawater into the shallow subseafloor by the intense discharge of high temperature fluids through focused vents at black smoker hydrothermal fields.

Arc Heat Flow and Magmatic Heat Budgets

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract We evaluate hydrothermal heat loss from 11 volcanic‐arc segments (∼6,000 km of arc length, ∼10% of the global total), motivated by the observation that much magmatic heat ultimately crosses the land surface as heated aqueous fluid. Heat loss takes place by volcanic eruption, geothermal heat conduction to the surface, fumarolic (vapor ...

Source Parameters of the 1906 Manas (Mw 7.7), 1944 Xinyuan (Mw 7.2) and 1812 Nilke Earthquakes and Seismotectonics of the Borohoro Shan, Western China

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The 1906 Manas Earthquake is the largest earthquake recorded in the Borohoro Shan (BRS) since 1900. The reported magnitude ranges from 7.2 to 8.3, but uncertainties remain regarding its size, mechanism, and responsible fault. Similar confusion exists for the 1812 Nilke and 1944 Xinyuan Earthquakes, the only other Mw > 7 earthquakes in the NE ...

Unsupervised Deep Representation Learning for Infrasound Phase Identification

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Infrasound phase identification is challenging because atmospheric variability strongly influences signal propagation on short timescales that are not resolved by standard atmospheric models. While traditional approaches rely on propagation modeling and array‐derived parameters, recent work suggests that waveform structure itself encodes ...

Reconstructing the Exhumation and Paleo‐Earthquake History of a Submarine Normal Fault From Preserved Markers at the Seafloor (Roseau Fault, Lesser Antilles, France)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Assessing seismic and tsunami hazards along coastlines requires understanding past earthquakes and their recurrence along active submarine faults. Subaqueous paleoseismology commonly relies on sediment cores and seismic reflection data, but these methods may be limited by local site conditions or data quality.

Deep Origin and Shallow Launch for the Etna 122 B.C. Mafic Plinian Eruption

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Basaltic Plinian eruptions challenge our understanding of explosive volcanism. The 122 B.C. Plinian eruption of Etna ranks among the most powerful mafic explosive events known. Here, we combine volatile barometry of 122 B.C. from olivine‐hosted melt and fluid inclusions with comparative data from the sub‐Plinian Fall Stratified eruption at ...
