Urban growth and land subsidence: Multi-decadal investigation using human settlement data and satellite InSAR in Morelia, Mexico

Francesca Cigna et al.

Summary: This paper uses an integrated urban and satellite Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) approach to investigate land subsidence, urban growth, and population trends in the Metropolitan Area of Morelia in Mexico, revealing a predominant edge-expansion growth model and a doubling population over the last 30 years. The study also shows that subsidence is structurally-controlled by main normal faults and non-linearly deforming subsidence bowls develop at extraction wells in both old and newly urbanized sectors.

Satellite InSAR survey of structurally-controlled land subsidence due to groundwater exploitation in the Aguascalientes Valley, Mexico

Francesca Cigna et al.

Summary: In response to the increasing water demands in expanding cities, many aquifers in Mexico, particularly in the Aguascalientes Valley, are being overexploited and deplete, resulting in land subsidence, ground faulting, and damage to infrastructure. This study, utilizing the longest SAR survey conducted in the Aguascalientes Valley, analyzed the structurally-controlled subsidence process and associated risks. The research revealed a pattern of subsidence linked to alluvial/fluvial deposits, with maximum settlement rates increasing over time. The study also identified previously unknown deformation patterns and zones of strain, providing valuable insights for subsidence risk assessment and urban planning in the region.
