Investigation of Ground Deformation around The Segments of Kendeng Fault in East Java 2017-2020 using Multi-Temporal InSAR Analysis with GACOS Correction Product

Abstract

Multi-Temporal Interferometric SAR (MT-InSAR) analysis technique can provide spatially continuous measurements of the ground deformation and monitoring caused by the movement of four segments in the Kendeng Fault, East Java. Most ground deformation in these segments is indicated by the dominance of local thrust movements, folds, and the seismic density of earthquakes. In this study, ground deformation detection was carried out using the Small Baseline Subset Algorithm in the MT-InSAR process with the tropospheric correction from GACOS to determine ground deformation during 2017-2020. The percentage of change in the deformation velocity value resulting from applying the GACOS correction is up to 33.8% compared to without the tropospheric correction. The most significant troposphere effect correction is the area around the Cepu segments, which are dominated by high elevation thrust and folds. The results of the mean LOS velocity around the southern segments of Cepu, Waru, and Surabaya based on the Sentinel 1A SAR represent the occurrence of land subsidence in the south part of the area around segments with values ranging from 3.0 mm/yr to 6.0 mm/yr. Thus, the deformation effect causes land subsidence in the area around the delineation of the northern fault segment up to -3.0 mm/yr.
