aquifers of Iran
Abstract:
Two new time-series approaches have been proposed to deal with these limitations, namely
the Persistent Scatterer (PSInSAR) and the Small Baseline (SBAS) methods. In this paper, we
present the results achieved by applying InSAR time-series methods to monitor
groundwater-induced subsidence in several plain aquifers in central and northeast of Iran,
including Tehran, Rafsanjan, Zarand and Mashhad.
We show in several areas significant subsidence of more than 20 cm/year for the time
period of 2002-2007. The presented results in this paper show the capability of both SBAS
and PS methods for long-term monitoring of ground subsidence in plain aquifers of Iran.
