Observations of Deformation
Volcano number: | 213030 |
---|---|
Region: | Mediterranean and W. Asia |
Country: | Turkey |
Geodetic measurements? | Yes |
Deformation observation? | Yes |
Measurement method(s): | InSAR |
Duration of observation: | 2003 to 2010 |
Characteristics of deformation: | Bathke et al. (2013) present InSAR data at Tenduruk volcano. They detected a large (~105 km2) region that underwent subsidence at the rate of ~1 cm/yr during this period. Source modeling results show that the observed signal fits best to simulations of a near-horizontal contracting sill located at around 4.5 km below the volcano summit (Bathke et al., 2013). |
