The eclogites have different bulk compositions and record heterogeneous strain patterns. Peak metamorphic conditions (800°C–900°C and &gt;5.5 GPa) were retrieved from early F1 isoclinal fold hinges. Subsequent overprinting by F2 tight folds occurred during the transition to quartz-eclogite facies. Localized shear zones exhibit amphibolite-facies retrogression, indicative of enhanced fluid activity. Omphacite exhibits crystal plasticity, while garnet displays a brittle–plastic transition during exhumation. A change from S- to L-type CPO in omphacite was controlled by folding geometry during subduction–exhumation. Strain localization controlled intergranular fluid connectivity and redistribution, correlating with increasing strain from F1 folds to localized shear zones. This process led to progressive dynamic recrystallization, and changes in deformation mechanisms and seismic properties. Dynamic recrystallization resulted in significant grain refinement, thereby triggering diffusion creep assisted grain boundary sliding in the presence of fluid. Seismic anisotropy is linked to the omphacite fabric and the presence of phengite, with modal phengite as the primary determinant in UHP–HP eclogites.

Recent advances in Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), driven by the Sentinel-1 mission, allow us to examine the spatial and temporal patterns of deformation in unprecedented detail. Here, we apply spatial Independent Component Analysis (sICA) to separate the contribution of magmatic and hydrothermal processes to deformation based on their distinct spatial and temporal characteristics. We use Corbetti Caldera, Ethiopia as an example. The hydrothermal system here is known to be laterally bound by a major rift-perpendicular structure, which means deformation associated with the hydrothermal system has a distinctly different spatial pattern to that of the underlying magmatic source. The sICA is able to separate two spatially distinct deformation signals associated with (a) the shallow magmatic system with constant uplift at a rate of <span></span><math>\u0000 <semantics>\u0000 <mrow>\u0000 <mo>∼</mo>\u0000 </mrow>\u0000 <annotation> ${sim} $</annotation>\u0000 </semantics></math>5.1 cm/yr in the satellite line-of-sight and (b) a laterally bound hydrothermal system that includes a strong seasonal signal with a magnitude of 0.65 cm.

At Erebus volcano we found no evidence of tilt associated with the classic Strombolian eruptions from the lava lake. Tilt has been observed preceding Strombolian eruptions at volcanoes. The lack of tilt at Erebus is evidence that its conduit system lacks sufficient viscous plugging or mechanical restrictions to generate slug-transport or explosion-related forces large enough to produce measurable tilt.

This study introduces AI-PAL, a novel deep learning-driven workflow that employs a Self-Attention RNN (SAR) model trained with detections from PAL, an established rule-based algorithm (Zhou, Yue, et al., 2021, https://doi.org/10.1785/0220210111), for generalized earthquake detection. PAL utilizes short-term-average over long-term-average algorithm for event detection, ensuring consistent performance across different datasets. AI-PAL leverages these rule-based picks as training labels, enabling self-supervised learning of the SAR model across arbitrary regions, thereby enhancing PAL's detection capabilities. We applied SAR-PAL to two distinct regions that are featured by recent large earthquakes: (a) the preseismic period of the Ridgecrest-Coso region (2008–2019), and (b) the pre-to-postseismic period of the East Anatolian Fault Zone (EAFZ, 2020–2023/04). Our results demonstrate that SAR-PAL offers slightly higher detection completeness than the quake template matching matched filter catalog, while boosts over 100 times faster processing and a superior temporal stability, avoiding detection gaps during background periods. Compared to PhaseNet and GaMMA, two widely recognized phase picker and associator, SAR-PAL proved more scalable, achieving ∼2.5 times more event detections in the EAFZ case, along with a ∼7 times higher phase association rate. We further experimented training PhaseNet and SAR with PAL detections and routine catalogs, and found that no other combinations matched the detection performance of SAR-PAL.

While most past DAS studies have focused primarily on seismic wave phase information, accurate measurements of true ground motion amplitudes are crucial for comprehensive future analyses. However, amplitudes in DAS recordings, especially for pre-existing telecommunication cables with uncertain fiber-ground coupling, have not been fully quantified. By calibrating three DAS arrays with co-located seismometers, we systematically evaluate DAS amplitudes. Our results indicate that the average DAS amplitude of earthquake signals closely matches that of co-located seismometer data across frequencies from 0.01 to 10 Hz. The noise floor of DAS is comparable to that of strong-motion stations but higher than that of broadband stations. The saturation amplitude of DAS is adjustable by modifying the pulse repetition rate and gauge length. We also demonstrate how our findings enhance the understanding of fiber-optic seismology and its implications for natural hazard mitigation and Earth structure imaging and monitoring. Specifically, our results suggest that with proper settings, DAS can detect <i>P</i>-waves from an M6+ earthquake occurring 10 km from the cable without saturation, indicating its viability for earthquake early warning.

To upscale the physics of shear localization and understand the influence of grain size, it is essential to identify the governing physical parameters and micro-mechanisms. In this study, we conducted double-direct shear experiments on quartz fault gouges with varying initial grain sizes (coarse, small, and bi-disperse mixtures) under constant normal stress and shearing velocity, while continuously monitoring Acoustic Emissions (AE). Microstructural analyses were performed on the deformed samples to complement the mechanical and AE data. Our results reveal that, while the initial grain size and distribution do not substantially alter the steady-state friction coefficient, they significantly influence the early stages of frictional evolution leading to a steady state, which is reflected in a different rate and amplitude of AEs. Specifically, coarse grains and bi-disperse mixtures exhibit strain-hardening behavior before reaching steady-state friction, whereas fine grains show strain-weakening behavior. Microstructural observations further indicate that bi-disperse mixtures retard the localization of deformation with increasing fault displacement. The AE data shows a strong dependence on both the average grain size and the evolving state of the gouge layer. Notably, there is a direct correlation between b-value evolution and the average grain size within the gouge. These findings suggest that variations in the characteristics of AE are indicative of distinct micro-mechanisms active during different stages of shear localization, which cannot be fully captured by mechanical data and microstructural analysis alone.</p>","PeriodicalId":15864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth","volume":"130 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024JB030448","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143707355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
