Screen grab of a wrapped interferogram over southern Kamchatka

First Sentinel-1 interferogram from southern Kamchatka! Lots of what I am assuming are tropospheric signals (e.g. over the volcanoes), but I also see long-wavelength fringes that change in azimuth from the NE (~shore-perpendicular) to the SW (~shore-parallel). Optimistic it could be the earthquake!

Comment mesure-t-on la force d’un séisme ? Intensité, magnitude, échelle de Mercalli… depuis les années 1960, les sismologues n’utilisent plus la célèbre échelle de Richter, lui préférant la magnitude de moment basée sur des mesures physiques.

Range offsets of the Myanmar earthquake from Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1C data. Positive displacements are in the line-of-sight (LOS) direction.

Sentinel-1C(!) acquired new SAR data over Myanmar yesterday. Here are the azimuth and range offsets. Not particularly unexpected (right-lateral slip, 400 km+ long rupture), given earlier InSAR/image offset results, but surprisingly clean, given S1C is not out of its commissioning phase.

Map showing the segmentation of the Sagaing fault and the hypothetic historical ruptures

Map showing the segmentation of the Sagaing fault and the hypothetic historical ruptures

Today's #earthquake near Mandalay, Myanmar, had magnitude Mw 7.7 to 7.9.

Prelim. source models point to rupture duration & length of ~120s and at least 200km. It likely filled large part of seismic gap S of Sagaing (previous rupture in 1839) ⚒️ 🧪

Looking at Sentinel-1 data availability over the Sagaing fault, and it is going to be several days (April 3rd) before Sentinel-1A flies over the likely rupture zone again. Can anyone at @esaearth.esa.int advise on the possibility of Sentinel-1C acquisitions over the area? #MyanmarEarthquake
