Over the past 15 years, software for processing interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data into maps of surface deformation has been developed and refined. The InSAR technique is commonly used to investigate associated with earthquakes, volcanoes, withdrawal crustal fluids, coherent ice motions [ Massonnet Feigl , 1998]. software, called Generic Mapping Tools Synthetic Aperture Radar (GMTSAR), an open‐source (GNU General Public License) system designed users familiar (GMT) [Wessel...
We compared four interseismic velocity models of the San Andreas Fault based on GPS observations. The standard deviations predicted secular from are larger north Francisco Bay area, near creeping segment in Central California, and along Jacinto East California Shear Zone Southern California. A coherence spectrum analysis fields indicates relatively high correlation among at longer wavelengths (>15–40 km), with lower shorter wavelengths. To improve short‐wavelength accuracy model, we...
We derived a coseismic slip model for the M w 7.9 2008 Wenchuan earthquake on basis of radar line‐of‐sight displacements from ALOS interferograms, GPS vectors, and geological field data. Available interferometric synthetic aperture (InSAR) data provided nearly complete coverage surface deformation along both ascending (fine beam mode) descending orbits (ScanSAR to ScanSAR mode). The was modeled using four subfaults with variable geometry dip capture simultaneous rupture Beichuan fault...
Abstract The 27 February 2010, M w 8.8 Maule earthquake ruptured ~500 km along the plate boundary offshore central Chile between 34°S and 38.5°S. Establishing whether coseismic fault offset extended to trench is important for interpreting both shallow frictional behavior potential tsunami earthquakes in region. Joint inversion of high‐rate GPS, teleseismic body waves, interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR), campaign observations yields a kinematic rupture model with improved...
Radar interferometry from the ALOS satellite captured coseismic ground deformation associated with 2010 Mw 8.8 Maule, Chile earthquake. The interferograms reveal a sharp transition in fringe pattern at ∼150 km trench axis that is diagnostic of downdip rupture limit Maule An elastic dislocation model based on ascending and descending 13 near‐field 3‐component GPS measurements reveals slip decreases more or less linearly maximum 17 m (along‐strike average 6.5 m) 18 depth to near zero 43–48...
Geodetic slip inversions for three major (Mw > 7) strike-slip earthquakes (1992 Landers, 1999 Hector Mine and 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah) show a 15–60 per cent reduction in near the surface (depth < 2 km) relative to at deeper depths (4–6 km). This significant difference between coseismic depth has been termed shallow deficit (SSD). The large magnitude of this an enigma since it cannot be explained by creep during interseismic period or triggered from nearby earthquakes. One potential explanation...

The Cerro Prieto geothermal field (CPGF) lies at the step-over between imperial and faults in northern Baja California, Mexico. While tectonically this is most active section of southern San Andreas Fault system, spatial temporal deformation area poorly resolved by sparse global positioning system (GPS) network coverage. Moreover, interferograms from satellite observations spanning more than a few months are decorrelated due to extensive agricultural activity region. Here we investigate use...

Abstract Previous inversions for slip rate along the San Andreas Fault System (SAFS), based on elastic half‐space models, show a discrepancy between geologic and geodetic rates few major fault segments. In this study, we use an earthquake cycle model representing plate over viscoelastic to demonstrate that there is no significant long‐term rates. The California statewide includes 41 segments having steady from base of locked zone episodic shallow known historical ruptures recurrence...
Abstract [1] The great 27 February 2010 Mw 8.8 earthquake off the coast of southern Chile ruptured a ∼600 km length subduction zone. In this paper, we make two independent estimates shear stress in crust region earthquake. First, use coseismic slip model constrained by geodetic observations from interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) and GPS to derive spatially variable estimate change static along fault. Second, force balance constrain crustal required simultaneously support...
The April 4, 2010 (Mw7.2), El Mayor-Cucapah, Baja California, Mexico, earthquake is the strongest to shake Salton Trough area since 1992 (Mw7.3) Landers earthquake. Similar event, ground-surface fracturing occurred on multiple faults in trough. However, event triggered surface slip more central than previous earthquakes, including Yuha Desert area, southwestern section of Trough. In Trough, along southern San Andreas, Coyote Creek, Superstition Hills, Wienert, Kalin, and Imperial Faults...

Abstract We analyzed the interferometric synthetic aperture radar data from ALOS‐1/PALSAR‐1 satellite to image interseismic deformation along Sumatran fault.

An moment accumulation shows that central part creeping section accumulates at approximately 50% surrounding...
Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technology provides a valuable tool for obtaining Earth surface deformation and topography at high spatial resolution crustal studies. Similar to global positioning system (GPS), InSAR measurements are affected by the Earth's ionospheric tropospheric layers as electromagnetic signals significantly refract while propagating through different layers. While GPS neutral atmosphere primarily distribution, pressure temperature of atmospheric gases,...
