US-Israeli strike on girls' school kills at least 85 students, Iran's judiciary says At least 85 students have been killed in US-Israeli strikes that hit an Iranian girls' school in Hormozgan province, Iran's judiciary said on Saturday. Washington has not commented on the reported str...

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

Excited to share the 2nd paper from Olivia Paschall's PhD work, where she demonstrates how adding cross-polarized SAR imagery to the normal co-polarized data can improve inferred deformation rates, applied to Death Valley: kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...

Recovering permanent displacements from seismic records of the June 9, 1994 Bolivia deep earthquake Ground displacements of the 1994 deep Bolivia earthquake are recovered from six on-scale velocity records of a temporary array located ∼600 km south of the epicenter. I first removed the instrument (...

Permanent deformation of the Earth and its surface happens after *every* earthquake, no matter it's depth or distance.

This has been known to seismologists for decades, because we can see the permanent offset in our seismograms. With large earthquakes, even 100s of km will still cause mm of offset.

Went out downtown tonight and got leathered with my friend Gordon. (No reason, except Friday.) On the way home, my Uber driver asked me lots of fun questions about earthquakes. And now I'm home and learning that NISAR successfully deployed its reflector?! What a great evening!

Here is Ann Chen on a deep dive into InSAR theory, explaining the basis of using InSAR in mapping topography. (Later she will talk about measuring deformation and the causes of decorrelation, all the good stuff!)

It's Day 1 proper of this year's EarthScope #InSAR Processing and Analysis short course (the "ISCE+" course)! Here, Franz Meyer is leading participants through a simple Mogi source modeling exercise using InSAR data from Okmok volcano! Real data and real models on an interactive online platform!

Screen grab of a wrapped interferogram over southern Kamchatka

Screen grab of a wrapped interferogram over southern Kamchatka

First Sentinel-1 interferogram from southern Kamchatka! Lots of what I am assuming are tropospheric signals (e.g. over the volcanoes), but I also see long-wavelength fringes that change in azimuth from the NE (~shore-perpendicular) to the SW (~shore-parallel). Optimistic it could be the earthquake!

Comment mesure-t-on la force d’un séisme ? Intensité, magnitude, échelle de Mercalli… depuis les années 1960, les sismologues n’utilisent plus la célèbre échelle de Richter, lui préférant la magnitude de moment basée sur des mesures physiques.

Range offsets of the Myanmar earthquake from Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1C data. Positive displacements are in the line-of-sight (LOS) direction.

Sentinel-1C(!) acquired new SAR data over Myanmar yesterday. Here are the azimuth and range offsets. Not particularly unexpected (right-lateral slip, 400 km+ long rupture), given earlier InSAR/image offset results, but surprisingly clean, given S1C is not out of its commissioning phase.
