vertical crustal movements

The aim of this article is to present the first model in Poland of contemporary relative vertical movements of the Earth's crust, based on the integration of vertical movements determined from three sources: GNSS measurements (ASG-EUPOS), permanent PsInSAR scatterers from EGMS products, and double precise levelling measurements. Due to differences in the temporal and spatial resolution of the data, it was necessary to develop a consistent integration methodology.

Purpose. The main goal is to find the relationship between the generalized parameters of the vertical displacement of the earth's surface and the background seismic activity of the European continent by means of GNSS- technology. Establishing the relationship between these two phenomena is one way to predict the overall degree of seismic activity of the area. Methodology. One way of determining the vertical movements of the crust is GNSS- measurement.
