Couverture de l’ouvrage InSAR Observations of Ground Deformation
This doctoral thesis applies measurements of ground deformation from satellite radar using their potential to play a key role in understanding volcanic and magmatic processes throughout the eruption cycle. However, making these measurements is often problematic, and the processes driving ground deformation are commonly poorly understood. These problems are approached in this thesis in the context of the Cascades Volcanic Arc. From a technical perspective, the thesis develops a new way of using regional-scale weather models to assess a priori the influence of atmospheric uncertainties on satellite measurements of volcano deformation, providing key parameters for volcano monitoring. Next, it presents detailed geodetic studies of two volcanoes in northern California: Medicine Lake Volcano and Lassen Volcanic Centre. Finally, the thesis combines geodetic constraints with petrological inputs to develop a thermal model of cooling magma intrusions. The novelty and range of topics covered in this thesis mean that it is a seminal work in volcanic and magmatic studies. 


Introduction.- Investigating long-term subsidence at Medicine Lake Volcano, CA, using multitemporal InSAR.- Systematic assessment of atmospheric uncertainties for InSAR data at volcanic arcs using large-scale atmospheric models: application to the Cascade volcanoes.- Time constraints on magma intrusion from thermal models of long-term volcanic subsidence: Medicine Lake Volcano, CA.- Constraining mechanisms of volcanic subsidence at Lassen Volcanic Center, CA, using InSAR.- Summary and outlook.

Amy Parker is a satellite geodesist and geophysicist, whose research involves the application and interpretation of InSAR data to investigate ground deformation related to natural hazards and anthropogenic problems. She received a First Class BSc (Hons) Geophysics from the University of Liverpool (2011), and has collaborated in research projects throughout the world, including the U.S., Ethiopia, and Australia. 
Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the University of Bristol, United Kingdom Is clearly structured and also understandable for non-experts Examines novel and wide-ranging topics covering both interpretation and technical aspects of InSAR Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
