On the Effect of Soil Moisture Phase Inconsistencies on Phase Estimators from Distributed Scatterers in InSAR Stacks

Towards assimilation of InSAR data in operational weather models

InSAR signal delays due to the varying atmospheric refractivity are a potential data source to improve weathermodels [1]. Especially with the launch of the new Sentinel-1 satellites, which increases data coverage, latency andaccessibility, it may become possible to operationalize the assimilation of differential integrated refractivity (DIR...

Aswan High Dam structural stability analysed by Persistent Scatterer Interferometry from 2004 until 2010.

Assimilation of InSAR-derived Atmospheric Data in Operational Weather Models

The influence of signal delay due to the varying atmospheric refractivity can be significant in individual interferograms. This signal is generally considered to be noise in deformation studies, but it can also potentially be used to improve weather models [1]. This application has an enormous potential, because, contrary to deformation studies,...

Around the world with professor Vening Meinesz onboard the submarine K-XVIII

In November 1934, Den Helder, The Netherlands, the start of a remarkable voyage commenced. The Hr. Ms.K-XVIII, a Dutch submarine, was about to set sail to Soerabaya, Indonesia. Onboard was a Dutch professor, Felix Andries Vening Meinesz. He was able to measure the Earth’s gravity field with similar precision as on land for the first time in...

The magmatic system beneath Torfajökull volcano, Iceland, throughradar and seismic interferometric analysis

Torfajökull is the largest silicic volcanic centre in Iceland lying at the intersection of the rift zone (MidAtlantic Ridge) and the transform zone that connects to Reykjanes peninsula. It erupts infrequently,with only two eruptions in the last 1200 years, the latest of which was over 5 centuries ago. Yet, itsactive tectonic setting, persistent...
