Summary: | These datasets display seasonal and multiannual surface displacement models based on microwave data of ESA's Sentinel-1 satellite system. The data was processed via Interferometric Aperture Radar (InSAR) time series techniques, using an adapted version of the Small BAseline Subset (SBAS) algorithm. The purpose of this study is to understand sediment flux mechanics, especially those related to permafrost and periglacial landforms, and how the changing climate may affect these processes in the NamCo area in the future. To that end we developped three surface displacement models. The freeze-thaw model describes seasonal surface displacement caused by freezing and thawing of the active layer in autumn and spring respectively. We observe vertical amplitudes of up to 20 mm in areas, where the water content of the soil is high. The multiannual velocity model shows the mean surface velocity over the entire time period of approximetly 3-4 years. Time series results of regions with a small slopes were decomposed from ... : Supplement to: Reinosch, Eike; Buckel, Johannes; Dong, Jie; Gerke, Markus; Baade, Jussi; Riedel, Björn (2020): InSAR time series analysis of seasonal surface displacement dynamics on the Tibetan Plateau.
