Satellite remote sensing in seismology. A review

AA Tronin - Remote Sensing, 2009 - mdpi.com
A wide range of satellite methods is applied now in seismology. The first applications of
satellite data for earthquake exploration were initiated in the '70s, when active faults were …

Remote sensing contributing to assess earthquake risk: from a literature review towards a roadmap

C Geiß, H Taubenböck - Natural Hazards, 2013 - Springer
Remote sensing data and methods are widely deployed in order to contribute to the
assessment of numerous components of earthquake risk. While for earthquake hazard …

Automatic and precise orthorectification, coregistration, and subpixel correlation of satellite images, application to ground deformation measurements

S Leprince, S Barbot, F Ayoub… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2007 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We describe a procedure to accurately measure ground deformations from optical satellite
images. Precise orthorectification is obtained owing to an optimized model of the imaging …

Prolonged seismically induced erosion and the mass balance of a large earthquake

N Hovius, P Meunier, CW Lin, H Chen, YG Chen… - Earth and Planetary …, 2011 - Elsevier
Large earthquakes deform the Earth's surface and drive topographic growth in the frontal
zones of mountain belts. They also induce widespread mass wasting, reducing relief. The …

Postseismic relaxation driven by brittle creep: A possible mechanism to reconcile geodetic measurements and the decay rate of aftershocks, application to the Chi‐Chi …

H Perfettini, JP Avouac - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
We evaluate the effect of coseismic stress changes on the fault slip at midcrustal depth,
assuming a velocity‐strengthening brittle creep rheology. We show that this model can help …

Mountain building, erosion, and the seismic cycle in the Nepal Himalaya

JP Avouac - Advances in geophysics, 2003 - books.google.com
The Himalaya is the most impressive example on earth of an active collisional orogen. It
combines rapid crustal shortening and thickening, intense denudation driven by the …

The 2005, Mw 7.6 Kashmir earthquake: Sub-pixel correlation of ASTER images and seismic waveforms analysis

JP Avouac, F Ayoub, S Leprince, O Konca… - Earth and Planetary …, 2006 - Elsevier
We analyze the Mw7. 6 Kashmir earthquake of October 8, 2005, using sub-pixel correlation
of ASTER images to measure ground deformation, and modeling seismic waveforms. The …

Evidence for a great medieval earthquake (~ 1100 AD) in the central Himalayas, Nepal

J Lavé, D Yule, S Sapkota, K Basant, C Madden… - Science, 2005 - science.org
The Himalayan orogen has produced three thrust earthquakes with moment magnitude (M
w) 7.8 to 8.5 during the past century, yet no surface ruptures associated with these great …

Aseismic slip and seismogenic coupling along the central San Andreas Fault

R Jolivet, M Simons, PS Agram… - Geophysical …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
We use high‐resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar‐and GPS‐derived observations of surface
displacements to derive the first probabilistic estimates of fault coupling along the creeping …

Measurement of ground displacement from optical satellite image correlation using the free open-source software MicMac

AM Rosu, M Pierrot-Deseilligny, A Delorme… - ISPRS Journal of …, 2015 - Elsevier
Image correlation is one of the most efficient techniques to determine horizontal ground
displacements due to earthquakes, landslides, ice flows or sand dune migrations. Analyzing …
