The rate of relative sea-level (RSL) rise at Sandy Hook, NJ (4.0 ± 0.5 mm/yr) was higher than The Battery, NY (3.0 ± 0.3 mm/yr) from 1900 to 2012 despite being separated by just 26 km. The difference cannot be explained by differential glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA; 1.4 ± 0.4 and 1.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr RSL rise, respectively) alone. We estimate the contribution of sediment compaction to subsidence...

Delay of the Global Positioning System (GPS) signal due to atmospheric water vapor is a major source of error in GPS surveying. Improved vertical accuracy is important for sea level and polar isostasy measurements, geodesy, normal fault motion, subsidence, earthquake studies, air and ground-based gravimetry, ice dynamics, and volcanology. We conducted a GPS survey using water vapor radiometers ...

It is over two decades that groundwater flow models are routinely implemented for better management of groundwater resources.Modeling groundwater flow with the help of the ground water modeling system (GMS) in the Damghan plain aquifer in northern Iran,which experiences declining levels and numerous environmental hazards, has demonstrated that, (a) in the worst case scenario theaquifer will fac...

Land Subsidence is a kind of slow evolution geological hazards which needs effective way to monitor. The causal and developmentsof land subsidence are complex. The monitor of land subsidence is also difficulty. So it is hard to analyze it in independent data source. This paper uses multiple source data to extract the high temporal and spatial resolution result. The deformations of land surface ...

chromium(III) up to 100 ng mL−1, and for chromium(VI) up to 200 ng mL−1) were obtained, using the “fixed time” method with detection limits of 4.9 ng mL−1 and 3.8 ng mL−1, respectively. The results suggest that at the reaction conditions chromium(VI) is reduced and chromium(III) is oxidized to an intermediate oxidation state and the catalytic action of chromium is due to the formation of an act...

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between surface subsidence and groundwater changes. To investigate this relationship, we first analyzed surface subsidence. This paper presents the results of a case study of surface subsidence in Beijing from 1 August 2007 to 29 September 2010. The Multi-temporal Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (multi-temporal InSAR) technique,...
