Iceland Kinematics From InSAR

چکیده
Large-scale ground deformation in Iceland is dominated by extensional plate-boundary deformation, where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge crosses island, and uplift due to glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) from thinning retreat of glaciers. While this mostly steady over multiple years, it modulated smaller-scale transient associated with, for example, earthquakes, volcanic unrest, geothermal exploitation. Here, we combine countrywide Sentinel-1 interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data (from six tracks) 2015 2021 with continuous Global Navigation Satellite System observations produce time series displacements across Iceland. The InSAR results were improved a two-step tropospheric mitigation procedure, using (a) global atmospheric models reduce long-wavelength topography-correlated signals, (b) modeling stochastic properties residual troposphere. Our significantly improve upon earlier results, which based on stacking, as use more data, better weighting, advanced corrections instead just velocities. We fuse three ascending descending track estimate maps East Up velocities, clearly show large-scale extension GIA deformation. Using revised plate-spreading models, these new velocity maps, remove analyze remaining deformations. demonstrate importance mitigating signals solving not processes are present.

A method for estimating ice mass loss from relative InSAR observations: Application to the Vatnajökull ice cap, Iceland
[1] We present a new method for estimating ice mass loss from glaciers and ice sheets using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) time-series data. We use a linear inversion method based on observations of nearby bedrock uplift and a solution for surface loading of an elastic half-space. The method assumes that mass loss is focused on lower elevation terminal regions of the glacier o...
متن کاملA Gravity Model for Exports from Iceland
This paper applies a gravity model to examine the determinants of Icelandic exports. The model specifications tested allow for sector and trade bloc estimation. Also, a combination of an export ratio and a gravity model is tested, as well as marine product subsamples. The estimates are based on panel data on exports from 4 sectors, to 16 countries, over a period of 11 years. Estimates indicate ...
متن کاملDeformation Due to Magma Movement and Ice Unloading at Katla Volcano, Iceland, Detected by Persistent Scatterer Insar
Katla volcano is situated in the south of Iceland, and is largely covered by the Mýrdalsjökull ice cap. Historically, Katla is one of the most active of Iceland’s volcanoes, with 20 eruptions in the last 1100 years, the last one being in 1918. The proximity of populated areas and international flight paths makes prediction of the timing and character of any future eruption particularly importan...
متن کاملImproved Source Imaging of the Kleifarvatn Earthquake, Iceland, through a Combined Use of Ascending and Descending Insar Data
We re-investigated the surface deformation of the Kleifarvatn earthquake on Reykjanes Peninsula, an event that was dynamically triggered by a moderatesize magnitude 6.5 earthquake 80 km away on 17 June 2000. Two ERS-2 interferograms from descending and ascending tracks were formed and used in combination with campaign GPS measurements to invert for the source parameters of rectangular faults fo...
متن کامل1 Utilization of Parallelization Algorithms in Insar / Ps - Insar Processing
This study describes a method for InSAR/PS-InSAR processing using parallelization algorithms. The InSAR/PS-InSAR processing chain is analyzed from the aspect of the computational load, which results in a specific parallelization model. The theoretical concept for the porting of Delft Object-oriented Radar Interferometric Software (Doris) into a parallel computational environment is described. T...
