Cumulative deformation maps

27/03/2009 509 views 1 likes 230135 ID

Cumulative (a) vertical and (b) east–west deformation maps retrieved by applying
the SBAS-InSAR technique to an ERS-Envisat Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) dataset relevant to the
1992-2006 time interval, with superimposed main fault systems (black lines) and the anticline
structure (A) at the base of Mt. Etna; the results are spatially referenced to the highlighted pixel located in
the town of Catania (black box in the lower right corner of Figure (a)).

One of the world’s most active volcanoes, Mount Etna, erupted on Sunday – spewing lava and clouds of ash high over the Mediterranean island of Sicily. This image, captured on 13 November by the Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission, has been processed using the mission’s shortwave-infrared bands to show the lava flow at the time of acquisition.
