We investigated the interactions between seamounts and SSEs in Northern Chile by combining GNSS InSAR and seismic data. If you wanna dive a bit more in the effect of seamounts structure and petrology and their effect on slip mode, check this paper :). agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.…

How do earthquakes happen >500km deep, where rock should flow, not break? Our new study doi.org/10.1029/2025AV001701 provides a dual mechanism explanation: metastable olivine transformation causes initial break, then the rupture melts rock and fuels a runaway to release massive energy

At subduction zones, lithospheric material descends through the upper mantle to the mantle transition zone (MTZ), where it may continue to sink into the lower mantle or stagnate. Several factors may be important in influencing this flow, including chemical heterogeneity. However, tight constraints on these mantle flows and the exact factors that affect them have proved challenging. A team of researchers recently used P-to-S receiver functions to create an image of the subducting slab and the MTZ beneath the Lesser Antilles subduction zone. They discovered a singular, superdeep (>700 km) 660-km discontinuity over a 200-km-wide zone within the slab, accompanied by nearby double 660 discontinuity phases (normal and superdeep).
