Modeling afterslip and aftershocks following the 1992 Landers earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
One way to probe the rheology of the lithosphere and fault zones is to analyze the temporal evolution of deformation following a large earthquake. In such a case, the lithosphere responds to a known stress change that can be assessed from earthquake slip

Large‐Scale Deformation, Strain Characteristics, and Locking Distribution of the Qilian‐Haiyuan Fault System

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Qilian‐Haiyuan fault system is the main tectonic boundary of the northeastern Tibetan Plateau, controlling the regional tectonic deformation and seismic activity. Extensive Sentinel‐1 SAR data (2014–2021) are used to map the regional tectonic deformation, strain distribution, and locking along primary and secondary faults.

Evidence for postseismic deformation of the lower crust following the 2004 Mw6.0 Parkfield earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Previous studies have shown that postseismic relaxation following the 2004 Mw6.0 Parkfield, CA, earthquake is dominated by afterslip. However, we show that some fraction of the afterslip inferred from kinematic inversion to have occurred immediately ...

Frozen Soil Hydrological Processes and Their Effects: A Review and Synthesis

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Frozen soils, including seasonally frozen ground and permafrost, are rapidly changing under a warming climate, with cascading effects on water, energy, and carbon cycles. We synthesize recent advances in the physics, observation, and modeling of frozen‐soil hydrology, emphasizing freeze–thaw dynamics, infiltration regimes and preferential flow,

A Joint Inversion Algorithm of GNSS and InSAR for Continuous 3‐D Surface Velocities and Associated Horizontal Strain Rate Field

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Simultaneous analyses of complementary GNSS and InSAR measurements may lead to breakthroughs in our understanding of crustal deformation. We present an algorithm that combines InSAR with GNSS measurements, in which the GNSS data can be used either as original station velocities or as an interpolated and smoothed velocity field, to estimate ...

Array-interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar Point Cloud Filtering Based on Spatial Clustering Seed Growth Algorithm

open access: yesLeida xuebao, 2018
By arranging multiple antennas in the intersection direction and combining the synthetic aperture of azimuth direction and large bandwidth signal with oblique distance, array-interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) can generate a three-dimensional

Precise Three-Dimensional Deformation Retrieval in Large and Complex Deformation Areas via Integration of Offset-Based Unwrapping and Improved Multiple-Aperture SAR Interferometry: Application to the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake

open access: yesEngineering, 2020
Conventional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry (InSAR) has been successfully used to precisely measure surface deformation in the line-of-sight (LOS) direction, while multiple-aperture SAR interferometry (MAI) has provided precise surface ...
