Key Takeaway

Key Takeaway: Interferometric SAR technique can quantitatively measure crustal movement due to earthquakes, as demonstrated by the NW Kagoshima Prefecture Earthquake (M6.3) of 1997.

Abstract

Abstract By processing JERS-1/SAR data with a technique called Interferometric SAR (INSAR), we succeeded in quantifying cruatal movement due to the NW Kagoshima Prefecture Earthquake (M6.3) of March 26, 1997. These outcomes agree with the crustal movement obtained from a field survey.It can be concluded that the observation data from JERS-1 SAR make it possible to quantitatively measure crustal movement due to earthquake.
