Withdrawal of oil and gas from reservoirs causes a decrease in pore pressure and an increase in effective stress which results to a reservoir compaction. Reservoir compaction will result in surface subsidence through the elastic response of the subsurface. Usually in order to determine the subsidence above a hydrocarbon field, the reservoir compaction must be first calculated and then the effec...

We applied the Small Baseline Subset multi-temporal InSAR technique (SBAS) to two SAR datasets acquired from 2003 up to 2013 by Envisat (ESA, European Space Agency) and COSMO-SkyMed (ASI, Italian Space Agency) satellites to investigate spatial and temporal patterns of land subsidence in the Sibari Plain (Southern Italy). Subsidence processes (up to ~20 mm/yr) were investigated comparing geologi...

Large-scale ground subsidence caused by coal mining and subsequent water-filling leads to serious environmental problems and economic losses, especially in plains with a high phreatic water level. Clarifying the hydrologic cycle in subsidence areas has important practical value for environmental remediation, and provides a scientific basis for water resource development and utilisation of the s...

Lanzhou New District is the first and largest national-level new district in the Loess Plateau region of China. Large-scale land creation and rapid utilization of the land surface for construction has induced various magnitudes of land subsidence in the region, which is posing an increasing threat to the built environment and quality of life. In this study, the spatial and temporal evolution of...

Mining for resources extraction may lead to geological and associated environmental changes due to ground movements, collision with mining cavities, and deformation of aquifers. Geological changes may continue in a reclaimed mine area, and the deformed aquifers may entail a breakdown of substrates and an increase in ground water tables, which may cause surface area inundation. Consequently, a r...

Jakarta is a heavily populated city, which has been experiencing ongoing ground subsidence for several decades, due to heavy use of groundwater, soil characteristics and tectonic motion. It is expected that this ground motion will increasingly impact upon flood risk management and ongoing development of the city, in particular critical infrastructure. Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) i...

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.9.2. The phenomenon of land subsidence in Negeri Sila Nusalaut Island was caused by an earthquake Ambon and surrounding areas on September 26, 2019 with the magnitude 6.5. This research had been conducted using a resistivity method dipole-dipole configuration. Land occurred due to seawater intrusion around area. trigger, so soil creep occurred.The purpose this study is obtain...

Global sea level rise is a major environmental concern for many countries and cities, particularly low-lying coastal areas where urban development threatened by the combined effects of land subsidence. This study employed an improved two-layer network Persistent Scatterers Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PS-InSAR) technology to obtain high-precision subsidence in Singapore from 2015 2...
