Decadal slowdown of a land-terminating sector of the Greenland Ice Sheet despite warming
Andrew J. Tedstone,Peter Nienow,Noel Gourmelen,Amaury Dehecq,Amaury Dehecq,Daniel Goldberg,Edward Hanna +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that annual ice motion across an 8,000-km2 land-terminating region of the west GIS margin, extending to 1,100 m above sea level, was 12% slower in 2007–14 compared with 1985–94, despite a 50% increase in surface meltwater production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mining-related ground deformation in Crescent Valley, Nevada: Implications for sparse GPS networks
TL;DR: In this paper, the Small BAseline Subset (SBAS) algorithm was used to obtain radar line-of-sight deformation velocities for two adjacent SAR swaths and invert the data for the 2-D velocity field in vertical and ground range direction.
Journal ArticleDOI
InSAR observations of 2007 Tanzania rifting episode reveal mixed fault and dyke extension in an immature continental rift
TL;DR: In the early stages of continental rifting, extension takes place by normal faulting, while in mature continental rifts dyke intrusion dominates as discussed by the authors, which is known about the nature of the transition between fault-controlled and dyke-controlled extension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postseismic Mantle Relaxation in the Central Nevada Seismic Belt
Noel Gourmelen,Falk Amelung +1 more
TL;DR: Interferometric synthetic aperture radar detected a broad area of uplift that can be explained by postseismic mantle relaxation after a sequence of large crustal earthquakes from 1915 to 1954 and lead to a broad agreement between geologic and geodetic strain indicators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustained retreat of the Pine Island Glacier
J. Park,J. Park,Noel Gourmelen,Andrew Shepherd,Sang-Wan Kim,David G. Vaughan,Duncan J. Wingham +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used satellite observations to show that, between 1992 and 2011, the Pine Island Glacier hinge line retreated at a rate of 0.95 ± 0.09 km yr−1 despite a progressive steepening and shoaling of the glacier surface and bedrock slopes, respectively.
