    July 1993 issue (Vol. 364, No. 6433) Massonnet et al. (Nature, 1993) ü Coseismic deformation of the 1992 Landers (California, USA; Mw=7.3) earthquake measured by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). ü Amazing spatial resolution (~3-5 meters) ü No need for a ground-based instruments ü Available day and night. All weather. Compare with optical measurements.

    example, the deformation due to the 1995 Kobe earthquake was measured by InSAR (Ozawa et al., 1997; Fig. 2). In spite of this worldwide trend, however, InSAR studies did Figure 2: An interferogram associated with the 1995 Kobe earthquake. (a) Aftershock distribution due the Kobe earthquake. Triangle denotes the epicenter of the mainshock. (b) Observed coseismic deformation. (c) Calculated deformation from a fault model. Taken from Ozawa et al., (1997). not become very popular among Japanese scientists mainly because of the lack of a satellite with a long wavelength (L-band) which is required to measure deformation in vegetated regions such as the Japanese islands. JERS-1, a L-band satellite, ended its operation in 1998. Ozawa et al. (GRL, 1997) ü A L-band SAR satellite JERS-1 was available between 1992 and 1998. ü No L-band SAR satellite available between 1998 and 2006, stagnating research in Japan. ü What is L-band? Why L-band satellites are so important in Japan (and Indonesia)?

  23. Limitation of InSAR: Line of sight (LOS) acements themselves like

    Figs. 4 and 5 may be more natural but it tends to lose small-scale deformation. nSAR s ons measure all three component displacements, InSAR measures a single com- ch pixel. Sensitivity of LOS to the three component displacement depends on taken from the ascending or descending orbit. The satellite flies from roughly ascending orbit and the other way around in the descending orbit (Fig. 18) . The ht-looking SAR satellite such as ALOS and many others is roughly from west to ng orbit and from east to west from the descending orbit. When the orbit is offset a degree of φ (Fig. 18), the LOS change is written by ∆Ra = ue cos φ sin θ + un sin φ sin θ − uv cos θ (28) ∆Rd = −ue cos φ sin θ + un sin φ sin θ − uv cos θ (29) ending orbits of the satellit. LOS is for a right-looking SAR satellit ü InSAR measures the line-of- sight component of the displacement, not the 3D displacement as in GNSS. ü Insensitive to north-south displacements. ü More sensitive to vertical displacements, but impossible to separate vertical and horizontal displacements.

  25. Limitation of InSAR: Swath width Now we move onto how

    to generate a SLC image. SAR satellites take a orbit 600–800 km above th’s surface. By convention, the direction of flight of the satellite is called ”azimuth” and the direc- is the emission of microwaves is called ”range” (Fig. 8). A SAR sensor emits pulses of microwave ure 8: (a) Geometry of the observation by a SAR satellite. A target is seen only when it is within w of the satellite. (b) Center of microwave emission, denoted by a thick line is not perpendicular to direction of flight but offset by an angle of θs . length of 0.02–0.04 milliseconds every 0.5–1 milliseconds, or a frequency of 1000–2000 Hz, to the ge direction with an incident angle of 20–50 degrees from vertical. It travels to the azimuth direction Swath width Figure 19: An interferogram associated with the 2008 Wenchan earthquake obtained by SAR images from the ALOS satellite. One cycle of fringes corresponds to LOS changes of about 118 millimeters. Taken from Hao et al. (2009). 2008 Wenchuan (Mw=8.0) earthquake Hao et al. (GRL, 2009) ü The swath width is 50-70 km for stripmap mode. It takes some time to observe the whole deformation field if the deformation is extended in east-west direction. ü ALOS-2 has ScanSAR mode with a width of 350 km.
  26. Limitation of InSAR: Decorrelation 2017 Leyte earthquake ü Change in

    surface feature caused by landslide, surface faulting, volcanic ash, etc, decrease the coherence to degrade the observation. ü Temporal decorrelation is severe in vegetated regions such as in Philippines and Japan. Images with temporal separation of 1 year can be incoherent in Philippines.
  27. Limitations of InSAR: Atmospheric disturbance ü Electromagnetic waves refract in

    the presence of water vapor, making the apparent line-of-sight distance longer. ü Interferograms contain long-wavelength patterns even if no real deformation is present. ü Precise correction of the atmospheric effect requires a precise knowledge of the spatial variations of water vapor. ü Removal of altitude-correlated signals does a reasonably good job. Lohman & Simons (Geochem. Geophys. Geosyst., 2005)

    experiment with SIR-C did not detect ionospheric effects (Rosen et al., 1998). Th of the lower altitude of the SIR-C satellite (∼220 km) than other satellites so that t underestimated. Interferograms associated with the 1992 Landers earthquake (F patterns due to the ionospheric effects (Fig. 22a, b, c). Acquisition time with resp ü Electromagnetic waves propagate slower than speed of light in the presence of ionized atmosphere, making apparent line-of-sight distance longer. ü The ionospheric effect is frequency-dependent, so multiple frequencies of electromagnetic waves allow us to extract the ionospheric effect. ü GNSS has two frequencies, but current SAR satellites use only single frequency. ü L-band waves are more susceptible to the ionospheric effect than C- and X-band waves.
  29. Other limitations of InSAR ü Oblique incidence of electromagnetic waves

    makes layover and shadow in areas of steep topography. ü Temporal resolution is limited by the recurrence time of the satellite. ALOS-2: >14 days ALOS: 46 days Sentinel-1: 6 days (originally 12 days) Figure 8: (a) Geometry of the observation by a SAR satellite. A target is seen only when it is within view of the satellite. (b) Center of microwave emission, denoted by a thick line is not perpendicular to the direction of flight but offset by an angle of θs . of a length of 0.02–0.04 milliseconds every 0.5–1 milliseconds, or a frequency of 1000–2000 Hz, to the range direction with an incident angle of 20–50 degrees from vertical. It travels to the azimuth direction by emitting microwaves and receiving back-scattered waves (Fig. 8). Note that microwaves emitting to a flat surface such as sea surface or an runway reflect forward much more than backward, resulting in a very weak signal received by the SAR sensor. In addition, an oblique incidence of microwaves yields invisible targets (called ”shadow”) or different targets with the same range distance, resulting in a skewed image (called ”foreshortening” or ”layover”) (Fig. 9). By the way, microwaves must be

Geosyst., 2005) ü InSAR is capable of detecting displacements by earthquakes down to M5.0- 5.5. ü InSAR is capable of precisely locating M5.0-5.5 earthquakes whose location error is up to a few tens of kilometers with teleseismic waveforms only.
  31. Postseismic deformation Gourmelen & Amelung (Science, 2005) ü Three possible

    mechanisms of postseismic deformation - Deep afterslip (a few years) - Viscoelastic relaxation (long) - Poroelastic (< a few months) ü Gourmelen & Amelung (2005) detected postseismic deformation of earthquakes that occurred a few tens of years before in Nevada, USA. The observed deformation is due to viscoelastic relaxation of the lower crust and upper mantle.

    interferograms allows us to infer interseismic displacements as low as ~3-5 mm/yr by reducing noise. ü Fialko (2006) succeeded in separating contribution from San Jucinto and San Andreas faults in Southern California. ü Applicable to the Philippine fault and major faults elsewhere?

    Cco mum case the temporal baseline between each acquisition is only one repeat so Section 4). (or more) SAR images, fulfilling the requirements mentioned above, are co-registered master image and resampled to its reference grid (Figure 4). Additionally, a common sures that only the overlapping parts of the spectrums are used. Thereby, the spatial fect (see Section 2.1.) is reduced [74]. In the next step, interferograms between he two slave images are generated: One pre-disaster InSAR pair (t1 and t2 ) and one R pair (t2 and t3 ). Then, for both InSAR pairs the coherence is computed according to e Section 2.1). Moreover, as described by Equation (9), also two SAR intensity computed using again the co-registered pre- (t1 and t2 ) and co-disaster (t2 and t3 ) airs [8]. The damage caused by the natural disaster is then assessed by detecting the he corresponding image pairs (see Section 2.3 for more details). pre co Two possible metrics for damage detection as a function of coherence C e.g., Arciniegas et al. (IEEE TGRS, 2007) Hoffmann et al. (Int. J. Remote Sens., 2007) Here we only look at co- disaster coherence. Pre-disaster coherence should also be used to for damage detection to evaluate temporal decorrelation.
