    SAR satellites detect mm-scale glacier shifts in Xizang

    1 outlet · first: global.chinadaily.com.cn Extreme weather

    Machine summary SAR and InSAR monitoring is tracking glacier deformation and barrier lakes after an Aug. 26 mudslide near Gyirong Port.

    1. Spacety operates three Synthetic Aperture Radar satellites, and these spacecraft are supplying the rescue command center in Shigatse's Gyirong county with updated imagery.
    2. The satellites have monitored two barrier lakes and assessed damage to National Highway G216 following the Aug. 26 mudslide.
    3. Upstream of Gyirong Port lies the glacier area, which is the newest monitoring target; crews are looking for surface shifts and cracks that might indicate additional hazards.
    4. InSAR technology detects ground movement at the millimeter-to-centimeter scale across large areas without requiring ground-based monitoring equipment.
    5. SAR can operate at night and penetrate clouds and rain, making it effective in Gyirong's mountainous terrain.

    • Two barrier lakes
    • Gyirong Port
