Assessment of Land Subsidence Time Series in Kermanshah Plain using InSAR Methods
Various natural phenomena have had a significant impact on the quality of human life since long ago. One of these types of natural phenomena is the deformation and displacement of the earth's surface, including subsidence. Subsidence is a morphological phenomenon that occurs under the influence of the downward movement of the earth. The salient features of radar images and the acceptable accuracy of the radar interferometric method have provided a powerful tool for researchers in investigating land subsidence. For this reason, 35 radar images of the Sentinel 1 sensor in the ascending orbit and transit 174 in the period from 2016 (June) to 2021 (January) were used to investigate the land subsidence in the Kermanshah plain. To analyze the time series of these images to prepare the average annual subsidence map in the plain, the radar interferometric technique was used under PSI and SBAS approaches. The results show the maximum land subsidence of 100 mm in the SBAS method and 10 mm in the PSI method in the west and northwest of the plain for 6 years. Finally, the maximum range was investigated in terms of geology and geo-hydrology. The results of the investigations showed that the land use of the maximum land subsidence area includes irrigated and rainfed agricultural lands, with the highest amount of water withdrawal in the agricultural sector, along with an average drop in the water level of 8 meters in 20 years in wells with a large thickness of fine-grained sediments. Is. In general, land subsidence in the area is affected by human and natural factors
