Complex Multifault Rupture During the 2016–2025 Dingri Earthquakes, Southern Tibetan Plateau, Unraveled by Multisource InSAR Observations #SRL ⚒️

What can satellite data tell us about how the ground moved during and after three quakes in southern Tibet?

Do Coupled Megathrusts Rupture?

In our new preprint, Bar Oryan and I present

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.

Unusual earthquake series in Canada: induced or of natural origin? A study by Hannes Vasyura-Bathke & Torsten Dahm from GFZ & colleagues from Canada, confirms the suspicion that the quakes were triggered by industrial wastewater disposal which started 10 years ago. www.gfz-potsdam.de/en/press/new...
