The study area is situated in the Middle part of the Tabas Block. It contains outcrops of rocks that formed along longitudinal faults in Early Cimmerian orogenic phase. The basin subsided along these faults from the Late Triassic to Early Cretaceous, which include two sedimentary cycles. A sedimentary cycle, related to Upper Triassic to Bajocian is known as Shemshak group. Another sedimentary c...

withdrawal of oil and gas from reservoirs causes a decrease in pore pressure and an increase in effective stress which results to a reservoir compaction. reservoir compaction will result in surface subsidence through the elastic response of the subsurface. usually in order to determine the subsidence above a hydrocarbon field, the reservoir compaction must be first calculated and then the effec...

It has long been recognized that New Orleans is subsiding and is therefore susceptible to catastrophic flooding. Here we present a new subsidence map for the city, generated from space-based synthetic-aperture radar measurements, which reveals that parts of New Orleans underwent rapid subsidence in the three years before Hurricane Katrina struck in August 2005. One such area is next to the Miss...

BACKGROUND The stand-alone treatment of degenerative cervical spine pathologies is a proven method in clinical practice. However, its impact on subsidence, the resulting changes to the profile of the cervical spine and the possible influence of clinical results compared to treatment with additive plate osteosynthesis remain under discussion until present. METHODS This study was designed as a ...

This paper presents a numerical analysis of pluvial flooding to evaluate the impact of land subsidence on flood risks in urban contexts using a hydraulic model (FloodMap-HydroInundation2D). The pluvial flood event of August 2011 in Shanghai, China is used for model calibration and simulation. Evolving patterns of inundation (area and depth) are assessed over four time periods (1991, 1996, 2001 ...

The leveling measurements have been traditionally made for the monitoring of ground subsidence, but this technique is known to be not timeand cost-effective. Instead, GPS has been recently used as one of the most convenient and precise techniques for the geodetic applications, in terms of high accuracy monitoring. A GPS monitoring network consisting of 52 GPS stations was set up in Yunlin Count...

The surface subsidence process induced by underground coal mining is a dynamic process, but the existing time function models can’t reflect the regularity of surface subsidence with time properly. By investigating the whole development process of subsidence, subsidence velocity and subsidence acceleration with time, a new time function model is presented that takes the dynamic characteristics i...

Over the past two decades, the Leizhou Peninsula has suffered from many geological hazards and great property losses caused by land subsidence. However, the absence of a deformation map of the whole peninsula has impeded the government in making the necessary decisions concerning hazard prevention and mitigation. This study aims to provide the evolution of land deformation (subsidence and uplif...

This research used both ERS and JERS-1 images to investigate the feasibility of differential radar interferometry (DInSAR) for mine subsidence monitoring in the state of New South Wales, Australia. DInSAR results are analysed and validated with the aid of Geographic Information System (GIS) tools. The drawbacks of using interferometric measurements for mine subsidence monitoring are discussed. ...
