LANDSLIDES IN ICELAND STUDIED USING SAR INTERFEROMETRY
Landslides and debris flows have caused both fatalities and considerable economic loss in Iceland during the past centuries. In a recently started project we plan to study known landslides in eastern and central-north Iceland using satellite radar interferometry (InSAR) and survey many other slopes...
