Radar interferometry and its application to changes in the Earth's surface

D Massonnet, KL Feigl - Reviews of geophysics, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
Geophysical applications of radar interferometry to measure changes in the Earth's surface
have exploded in the early 1990s. This new geodetic technique calculates the interference …

Magma chambers: Formation, local stresses, excess pressures, and compartments

A Gudmundsson - Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2012 - Elsevier
An existing magma chamber is normally a necessary condition for the generation of a large
volcanic edifice. Most magma chambers form through repeated magma injections …

Drainage of a deep magma reservoir near Mayotte inferred from seismicity and deformation

S Cesca, J Letort, HNT Razafindrakoto, S Heimann… - Nature …, 2020 - nature.com

How local stresses control magma-chamber ruptures, dyke injections, and eruptions in composite volcanoes

A Gudmundsson - Earth-science reviews, 2006 - Elsevier
To assess the probability of a volcanic eruption during an unrest period, we must understand
magma-chamber rupture and dyke propagation to the surface, as well as dyke arrest at …

Deformation due to a pressurized horizontal circular crack in an elastic half-space, with applications to volcano geodesy

Y Fialko, Y Khazan, M Simons - Geophysical Journal …, 2001 - academic.oup.com
We consider deformation due to sill-like magma intrusions using a model of a horizontal
