On 8 January 2022, a Ms 6.9 earthquake occurred in Menyuan, Qinghai, China. This event provided important geodetic data before and after the earthquake, facilitating the investigation of the slip balance along the seismogenic faults to understand ...

Phase-ramp reduction in interseismic interferograms from pixel-offsets
Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is increasingly used to measure interseismic deformation. Inaccurate satellite-orbit information, expressed as phase ramps across interseismic interferograms, is believed to be one of the main sources of ...

Three-dimensional viscoelastic interseismic deformation model for the Cascadia subduction zone [PDF]
Contemporary deformation of the Cascadia forearc consists of an elastic interseismic strain build-up as part of the subduction earthquake deformation “cycle” anda secular deformation primarily in the form ofarc-parallel translation and clockwise rotationofforearc blocks.

Interseismic Loading of Subduction Megathrust Drives Long‐Term Uplift in Northern Chile
Large earthquakes are the product of elastic stress that has accumulated over decades to centuries along segments of active faults. Assuming an elastic crust, one can roughly estimate the location and rate of accumulation of elastic stress. However, this

Interseismic Ground Deformation and Fault Slip Rates in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area From Two Decades of Space Geodetic Data [PDF]
The detailed spatial variations of strain accumulation and creep on major faults in the northern San Francisco Bay Area (North Bay), which are important for seismic potential and evaluation of natural hazards, remain poorly understood.

Measuring and Modeling Viscoelastic Relaxation of the Lithosphere with Application to the Northern Volcanic Zone, Iceland [PDF]
Viscoelastic relaxation of the stress perturbation caused by an earthquake or diking event can produce measurable ground deformation over 100 km away from the source. We consider the role of viscoelastic relaxation in two different contexts.

Using Heterogeneous 3D Earth Models to Constrain Interseismic and Postseismic Deformation in Southern California and Nepal [PDF]
We characterize interseismic strain accumulation across the Los Angeles basin and postseismic deformation following the 2010 Mw=7.2 El Mayor-Cucapah and 2015 Mw=7.8 Nepal earthquakes using geodetic data.

Aseismic slip and seismogenic coupling in the Marmara Sea: What can we learn from onland geodesy?
Ever since the Mw7.4 Izmit earthquake in 1999, evaluation of seismic hazard associated with the last unbroken segments of the North Anatolian fault is capital.

Performance of Common Scene Stacking Atmospheric Correction on Nonlinear InSAR Deformation Retrieval
Atmospheric Phase Screen (APS) is a major noise that suppresses the accuracy of InSAR deformation time series products. Several correction methods have been developed to perform APS reduction in the InSAR analysis, in which an algorithm called Common ...

A Snapshot of New Zealand's Dynamic Deformation Field From Envisat InSAR and GNSS Observations Between 2003 and 2011 [PDF]
Measuring the deformation at the Earth's surface over a range of spatial and temporal scales is vital for understanding seismic hazard, detecting volcanic unrest, and assessing the effects of vertical land movements (VLMs) on sea level rise.
