Far-field crustal movements before and after the 2011 Ms9. 0 Japan earthquake from GPS observations

Detection of Crustal Movements in the 2011 Tohoku, Japan Earthquake Using High-resolution Sar Data

Significant crustal movements were caused by the 2011 Tohoku, Japan Earthquake. A method for capturing the surface movements from TerraSAR-X intensity images is proposed in this study. First, the buildings were extracted from the preand post-event images using a segmentation approach. Then, the unchanged buildings were detected by matching the buildings in the preand post-event images at simila...

Insights from the great 2011 Japan earthquake

Properties of GPS noise at Japan islands before and after Tohoku mega-earthquake

The field of 3-components GPS signals is analyzed for the network of 1203 stations at the Japanese islands from January 30 up to March 26, 2011. This time interval includes just over 40 days of observation before the Tohoku mega-earthquake on March 11, 2011 (M = 9.0) and nearly 16 days of observation following this event. The signals from each station are three-component time series with time s...

Communication Problems After the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011

OBJECTIVES After the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, the resource utilization of and the problems encountered with communication devices were examined. METHODS A questionnaire survey was submitted to disaster medical assistance teams (DMATs) that were at the primary sites of destruction after the earthquake. RESULTS We collected data from 196 teams. During the first 4 days after the earth...
