Land deformation and sinkhole occurrence in response to the fluctuations of groundwater storage: an integrated assessment of GRACE gravity measurements, ICESat/ICESat-2 altimetry data, and hydrologic models
Uncontrolled extraction of water from groundwater aquifers causes groundwater depletion, which in turn triggers the formation of sinkholes in many parts of the world. Monitoring and detection of these geomorphologic features are of utmost importance and priority for the decision-makers to minimize s...

Uncontrolled extraction of water from groundwater aquifers causes groundwater depletion, which in turn triggers the formation of sinkholes in many parts of the world. Monitoring and detection of these geomorphologic features are of utmost importance and priority for the decision-makers to minimize significant environmental as well as socio-economic implications of land deformation. In this study, a systematic approach is proposed to investigate the spatio-temporal associations of groundwater storage changes with sinkhole evolution and land deformation by using a number of remotely sensed and modeled data as well as in-situ observations. The proposed approach is implemented and tested in Konya Closed Basin (KCB), Turkey, which is one of the most critical areas in central Turkey concerning sinkhole formation.
