Summary: This paper uses DInSAR and MTInSAR techniques to study surface displacement in the Kotrupi Region. DInSAR accurately measures displacements but is limited by various factors, while MTInSAR uses data from multiple periods to reduce atmospheric disturbances and unwrapping errors. The results show significant deformation in the Kotrupi area after a landslide, with MTInSAR providing more accurate results compared to DInSAR.

Summary: In this paper, an adaptive patch-based Goldstein filter (AP-Goldstein filter) is proposed, which adapts patch sizes based on pseudo-variation coefficient and controls noise suppression parameter alpha through pseudo-coherence. The proposed method effectively suppresses phase noise of interferograms while maintaining edge detailed information and improving filtering automation.

Summary: This study develops a novel approach using DInSAR to detect water level changes in small lakes, based on subsequential pixel-wise observations of the Sentinel-1B sensor. The study findings show that the DInSAR-derived water level changes are consistent with precipitation and capture the peak of the wet seasons. Furthermore, the accumulated water level changes can be explained by differences in lake area.

Summary: The study utilizes satellite imagery and SAR technology to analyze land subsidence in the Konya Plain in Turkey, showing that excessive groundwater extraction leads to significant subsidence rates, with a maximum value reaching 16 cm. The researchers used DInSAR technique and analyzed satellite images from three periods to provide accurate information on ground deformation.

Summary: This paper investigates the error sources of the array-InSAR interferograms and proposes a hybrid 3D phase unwrapping approach for 3D reconstruction. A hypothesis test is developed to identify the phase ambiguity and three indicators are proposed to identify reliable arcs. The L-1 norm approach is used to detect unwrapping errors and a two-tie network strategy is employed for global optimization. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can eliminate errors and provide a viable solution for rapid 3D SAR imaging.

Summary: This study proposes a two-folded procedure using ground displacement data measured by a ground-based interferometric radar to detect sinkhole precursors and generate a risk zonation map. The analysis revealed that Camaiore did not experience sinkhole-related subsidence, but measured vertical movements correlated with water table oscillations, suggesting the potential detection of sinkhole precursors. The risk zonation map identifies specific areas for monitoring and can inform urban planning and risk management strategies in sinkhole-prone areas.

Summary: Geometrical decorrelation is one of the sources of noise in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) interferograms, and it can be compensated by range filtering. Multiple range filtering methods have been proposed, and this manuscript analyzes their advantages and limitations. A new adaptive filtering approach is also proposed, which improves filtering accuracy, especially in steep areas and vegetation-covered regions.

Summary: Ice cliffs are crucial for the mass balance of debris-covered glaciers, but assessing their importance is hindered by the lack of large-scale datasets. New semi-automated methods utilizing multispectral imaging have been developed to map ice cliffs from glacier to regional scales, showing promising results for application in diverse geographical and seasonal conditions.

Summary: This study examined glacier surging at the Geladandong ice caps on the Tibetan Plateau and identified 19 surge-type outlet glaciers. It was found that the mass budgets of surge-type glaciers vary depending on the portion of the surge-cycle captured by geodetic data. The results highlight the importance of accurate surge-type glacier inventories and the need for maximizing geodetic data coverage over glacierised regions containing surge-type glaciers.

Summary: The study highlights the increasing glacier mass loss rates in High Mountain Asia since the 1960s, with the highest rates observed in Central Himalaya and Northern Tien Shan regions. Summer temperature increase is identified as the main driver of long-term mass loss trend, even in regions where glaciers were previously in balance with climate. Multi-platform satellite observations over six decades reveal widespread glacier mass loss across High Mountain Asia, reflecting regional climatic differences.

Summary: Glaciers are rapidly shrinking globally, posing a threat to the sustainability of meltwater and altering regional hydrology. This study estimates the multi-temporal mass balance of glaciers in the upper Alaknanda basin and neighboring transboundary glaciers, and identifies the influence of climatic and non-climatic factors on ice loss. The findings highlight the significant impact of summer temperature on glacier mass budget and suggest that smaller glaciers may disappear in the coming decades if current climate trends continue.

Summary: This article introduces the Corona Stereo Pipeline (CoSP) for processing Corona KH-4 stereo panoramic imagery. The pipeline utilizes the SuperGlue feature matcher to automatically match feature points, generates ground control points (GCPs), and employs a modified collinearity equations camera model to model the imaging geometry. The study demonstrates that using CoSP with well-distributed GCPs and preprocessing for film bending can result in accurate 3D reconstruction. Furthermore, the Corona DEM computed with CoSP showed promising results for computing long-term glacier elevation changes over large areas.
