Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The Rudall Province (RP) is a Paleo‐Mesoproterozoic belt that records numerous overprinting tectono‐metamorphic events. Situated on the eastern edge of the West Australian Craton (WAC), the RP represents a key area for understanding the Proterozoic assembly and subsequent tectonic history of Western Australia.

Lithospheric Delamination Below the North American Midcontinent Ceased Subsidence in Cratonic Basins
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Cratonic lithospheres carry a long history of tectonic modifications that result in heterogeneous structures, as revealed by an increasing number of geophysical observations. The existence of cratonic basins indicates protracted periods of tectonic modification, causing subsidence within global continental interiors.

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The transport medium, mode, energy, and distance are recorded in the grain‐size and grain‐shape distributions in a sedimentary deposit. While grain‐size analysis has long been used in sedimentology, grain‐shape analysis is increasingly recognized as a valuable tool for reconstructing sedimentary processes and palaeoenvironments.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The Late Cretaceous Oman ophiolite includes a series of volcanic rocks generated during the transition from spreading ridge to protoarc associated with subduction initiation. We analyzed major and trace elements and Sr, Nd, and Pb isotope compositions of lavas and dikes of the protoarc stage, especially boninites. We also analyzed amphibolites

A Lithospheric Drip Triggered Green and Colorado River Integration
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The integration of the Green and Colorado Rivers shifted the continental drainage divide of North America, marking a key event in the hydrological and biogeographical evolution of the continent. Sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence shows that for integration to occur, the Green River likely cut through the Uinta Mountains between 8 and ...

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Climate models run under warmer‐than‐modern conditions indicate that hurricanes pass closer to the US East Coast and show that a higher proportion of tropical cyclones achieve “major hurricane” strength with winds >209 km/hr. Empirical observations indicate that the dominant southward longshore current direction off the US East Coast is ...

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract An updated approach to seismically constrained modeling of gravity data reveals two broad, NW‐trending low‐density zones in the mantle lithosphere beneath the Canadian Cordillera. The low‐density zones coincide with a shallow lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB), a shallow Curie‐point depth, and the location of Quaternary volcanoes.
