Retrieving Precise Three-Dimensional Deformation on the 2014 M6.0 South Napa Earthquake by Joint Inversion of Multi-Sensor SAR

Abstract We reconstructed the three-dimensional (3D) surface displacement field of the 24 August 2014 M6.0 South Napa earthquake using SAR data from the Italian Space Agency’s COSMO-SkyMed and the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-1A satellites. Along-track and cross-track displacements produced with...
