Land subsidence: A global challenge
Science of The Total Environment, 2021This study presents a comprehensive review of the Land subsidence (LS) cases, as a worldwide environmental, geological, and global geohazard concern. Here, 290 case studies around the world mostly conducted in large metropolitan cities (e.g. Bangkok, Beijing, California, Houston, Mexico City, Shanghai, Jakarta, and Tokyo) in 41 countries were collected.

Land subsidence in China occurs in different regions. It is primarily caused by excessive groundwater withdrawal. Other reasons for the subsidence include the oil, warm groundwater withdrawal and the neotectonic movement. The common characteristics of land subsidence in China are slow, accumulative, irreversible, and other unique properties.

Satellite radar measurements of land subsidence
IGARSS '96. 1996 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2002The potential of satellite borne interferometric measurements for the mapping of slow land subsidence has been investigated. Two test sites, covered by the ERS-1 satellite, were selected in the Netherlands: the provinces of Groningen and Zeeland. In situ measurements on the weather and the actual subsidence were gathered.

Fluid removal from subsurface reservoirs, in the form of gas, oil, groundwater, geothermal water, and brine, produces a compaction of the depleted formations which migrates totally or partially to the ground surface thus inducing anthropogenic land subsidence.

Land subsidence in Bangkok, Thailand
Engineering Geology, 2006Abstract Land subsidence from deep well pumping has been affecting Bangkok for the past 35 years. Its impact is particularly critical because of the flat low-lying topography and the presence of a thick soft clay layer at the ground surface that augment flood risk and foundation engineering problems, respectively.

Land Subsidence — B. A Regional Mathematical Model for Land Subsidence due to Pumping
1984A regional mathematical model for land subsidence and horizontal displacement resulting from pumping from an aquifer is developed on the basis of the works of Biot and Verruijt on consolidation. The regional mathematical model is obtained by integrating the equations that describe soil deformation in a three-dimensional space over the aquifer’s ...

SAR land subsidence monitoring [PDF]
, 1995 Images of the phase difference between two SAR (synthetic aperture radar) images acquired from two (nearly) repeated SAR coverages are called interferograms. The technique to use these data to generate digital elevation maps and/or deformation maps, is called SAR multi-pass interferometry.At TNO-FEL the potential and limitations of these measurements ...

Reservoir compaction and land subsidence
Revue européenne de génie civil, 2006ABSTRACT Subsurface hydrocarbon removal induces a reservoir compaction that migrates to the ground surface and causes the land to subside. While compaction depends primarily on the fluid pore pressure drawdown, the thickness and the mechanical compressibility of the depleted formation, the amount of compaction reaching the surface depends on the depth ...
