Complex Multipatch Rupture and Aftershock Characteristics of the 2024 Mw 4.2 Buan, Korea, Earthquake Sequence

Abstract Moderate-magnitude earthquakes in stable continental regions (SCRs) can pose significant hazards, yet their rupture processes remain poorly understood due to sparse instrumentation and their infrequent occurrence. The 2024 Mw 4.2 Buan, Korea, earthquake, and its aftershock sequence were exceptionally well recorded by a local seismic network, providing a rare opportunity to investigate the rupture process […]

Metasomatized lithospheric mantle as a reservoir for recycled volatiles: Noble gas and oxygen isotope systematics in the East Sea

Volatiles recycled via subduction can be partly stored within the sub-arc lithosphere, forming long-lived geochemical reservoirs. Northeast (NE) Asia possesses a unique geological context in which the subduction of the Pacific plate has profoundly influenced tectonic and magmatic processes, providing an opportunity to investigate the records of subducted components preserved within the metasomatized sub-continental lithospheric […]

Seismic properties of lawsonite blueschist in cold subduction zones

Anomalous seismic low-velocity layers (LVLs) have been observed at the top of subducting slabs in cold subduction zones. However, their origins remain unclear. Here, based on experimentally derived crystal preferred orientation (CPO) data of lawsonite blueschists, we demonstrate that the LVLs can be caused by the alignment of glaucophane and lawsonite. The data were obtained […]
