Subsidence in Tianjin caused by water extraction

tianjin

The image on the left shows the subsidence trend detected with a stack of TerraSAR-X data (Persistent Scatterers approach). In the image on the right the movement comes from an analysis based on ALOS images (decorrelating targets approach). The strong subsidence is caused by the extraction of underground water.
