Present-day crustal deformation in China constrained by global positioning system measurements.
Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements in China indicate that crustal shortening accommodates most of India's penetration into Eurasia. Deformation within the Tibetan Plateau and its margins, the Himalaya, the Altyn Tagh, and the Qilian Shan, absorbs more than 90% of the relative motion between the Indian and Eurasian plates. Internal shortening of the Tibetan plateau itself accounts for ...
متن کاملEstimation of present-day glacial isostatic adjustment, ice mass change and elastic vertical crustal deformation over the Antarctic ice sheet
This study explores an iterative method for simultaneously estimating the present-day glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), ice mass change and elastic vertical crustal deformation of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) for the period October 2003–October 2009. The estimations are derived by combining mass measurements of the GRACE mission and surface height observations of the ICESat mission under the...
متن کاملPresent‐day motion and deformation of the Colorado Plateau
[1] We analyze data from continuous GPS stations in the southwes te rn Uni ted Sta tes and present the f i r s t observations of a systematic motion of the Colorado Plateau region. Relative to a North America‐fixed reference frame, westward velocities increase rapidly across the Wasatch fault system, which comprises the plateau’s northwestern margin, but increase more gradually between the Grea...
متن کاملCrustal deformation study using SAR interferometry Crustal deformation measurements relating to earthquakes and volcanic activity are
We have examined the precision of interferometric SAR measurements of surface deformation of the Earth using 24-cm wavelength data acquired by the Japanese Earth Resources Satellite 1 (JERS 1) spacecraft, over the lzu peninsula, Japan. Radar images acquired from 1993 to 1994 were made into eleven independent interferograms. Apparent water vapor signatures with equivalent path delay up to 16 cm ...
متن کاملIndia and Sunda plates motion and deformation along their boundary in Myanmar determined by GPS
[1] Using a regional GPS data set including 190 stations in Asia, from Nepal to eastern Indonesia and spanning 11 years, we update the present-day relative motion between the Indian and Sundaland plates and discuss the deformation taking place between them in Myanmar. Revisiting measurements acquired on the Main Boundary Thrust in Nepal, it appears that points in southern Nepal exhibit negligib...
