| Abstract: | The Atotsugawa fault system is one of the best-known active faults in Japan. However, revealing the interseismic velocity field in and around the Atotsugawa fault system with high spatial resolution is challenging because of dense vegetation, steep topography, and heavy snowfall in winter. To overcome these difficulties, we combined ALOS/PALSAR data and GNSS data from our original stations in addition to the nationwide station network (GEONET). First, we removed the height-dependent phase change in each interferogram using a digital elevation model. Next, we removed the long-wavelength phase trend using the GNSS velocity field. Finally, we applied an InSAR time-series analysis, known as small baseline subset analysis (SBAS), to all the corrected interferograms. The resultant mean velocity field shows a remarkable phase gradient around the Atostugawa fault system. We found a sharp velocity gradient across the Ushikubi fault, a major strand of the Atotsugawa faults system, rather than the main trace of the Atotsugawa fault. Using InSAR, we found that the interseismic deformation inside the strain concentration zone is spatially heterogeneous and different from what we expect from the fault traces. |
