A detailed satellite survey of land subsidence in Iran from 2014 to 2020 shows that 3.5% of the country’s land area is subsiding due to groundwater pumping for irrigation. scim.ag/6W6

بررسی #فرونشست زمین در سرتاسر ایران. دلیل اصلی فرونشست استخراج بی‌رویه آب‌های زیرزمینی است که متاسفانه به جز گیلان در همه استان‌های کشور دیده میشه.
New in @ScienceAdvances. Our paper provides a comprehensive analysis of land subsidence across Iran due to aquifer depletion, using Sentinel-1 InSAR. #ScienceAdvancesResearch science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Groundwater loss in Iran is taking on dramatic proportions. In some regions, the ground is sinking almost 40 centimeters per year & huge fissures are opening up. Click here for the news about the latest study of GFZ researcher @MahdiMotagh & his colleague gfz-potsdam.de/en/press/news…

Grundwasserverlust in Iran nimmt dramatische Ausmaße an. In manchen Regionen senkt sich der Boden deshalb fast 40 Zentimeter pro Jahr und riesige Erdspalten tun sich auf. Hier geht's zu der Nachricht über eine unserer neuesten Studien: gfz-potsdam.de/presse/meldun…

Covering 2014-2020, we found 56,000 km² of Iran's land affected by subsidence, primarily due to excessive groundwater extraction for irrigation. This includes alarming subsidence rates of up to 37 cm/year, posing serious risks to infrastructure and water sustainability.

Our findings reveal that except for Gilan, every province in Iran is experiencing land subsidence at various rates due to groundwater depletion. The nationwide subsidence data is available Access the data at zenodo.org/records/10815578

We are all set to organize our FIRST InSAR workshop at the Department of Civil Engineering, IIT Roorkee India. Stay tuned for more updates. SALIENT FEATURES: 1. SERB sponsored 2. 25 participants (100 applications from 50 Indian universities) 3. 11 SAR experts

New update on Sentinel-1B - further attempts to activate power were not successful. Investigations on going☹️ scihub.copernicus.eu/news/Ne…

Things are starting to look serious for Sentinel-1B, which has been down since Christmas. Hopefully ESA can resolve the issues: scihub.copernicus.eu/news/Ne…

On #BlackFriday our master students at @UniHannover are learning, #online and #offline on the campus, how to use #sentinel1 #SAR data in #GoogleEarthEngine for #landcover #classification and #flood mapping. Thank you @Mahmudhh for your support in the lecture

6-day S1 LiCSAR interferogram for the M7.4 Southern Qinghai earthquake - beautifully highlights shallow afterslip occurring along the fault rupture. Links to data download from comet.nerc.ac.uk/earthquakes… @COMET_database @NERC_COMET @ESA_EO

Just because you were curious of a quick 'n dirty model. A North dipping (strike 283°, dip 75°) nearly pure left-lateral (rake -6°) with slip up to 5 m. But high residuals by the fault trace come from unwrapping/coherence issues. Let's join descending data.

Did we see it coming in InSAR? Well, both yes and no. The dike deformation is clear in sequences of descending (top) and ascending (bottom) S1 interferograms, but there is no short term deformation warning in the last one (up to ~14 hrs before the eruption). Adriano@CDI-KAUST

The #fagradalsfjalleruption has started! This is one of the first videos of the eruption taken from a scientific helicopter surveillance flight. Erupting fissure is approx 5-700m long in a valley in central Fagradalsfjall.
