Monitoring landslide in Badong, China with multi-track Sentinel-1 InSAR: With emphasis on improving temporal resolution and accuracy Qian Sun (1), Changjiang Yang (2), and Jun Hu (2) (1) College of Resources and Environmental Science, Hunan Normal University, Changsha, China([email protected]), (2) School of Geosciences and Info-Physics, Central South University, Changsha, China (csuhujun.edu.cn) Landslide is one of the most common and serious geo-hazards in China, which is characterized by increasing frequency, random distribution, strong concealment and complicated causes. It is of great importance to monitor the ground deformation associated with landslide. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) has great potential in this ﬁeld due to its advantages of all-day, all-weather, spatial continuous, high precision and contact free. Especially with the launch of the Sentinal-1 satellites, a great amount of SAR images can be globally pro- vided for free. This provides us a good opportunity to improve the practicability of InSAR in monitoring landslides. In this paper, InSAR technique is employed to monitor the landslide hazard occurred in the Badong area, Hubei province, China. The study area is located in the middle section of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. The annual precipitation ranges from 1100 mm to 1900 mm, concentrating during April and September. Due to the complicated geologic setting and water level change in the reservoir, Badong is one of most vulnerable area to the landslide hazard. Total of 26 Sentinel-1 images acquired by two adjacent tracks are employed to investigate the landslide in Badong during June 2015 and July 2016.

The three men, Yu Zhijian, Yu Dongyue and Lu Decheng, threw ink and paint at the portrait as a protest against China's one-party dictatorship and the Maoist system. They later received sentences of between 16 years and life imprisonment.
