Zusammenfassung |
In the last few years, Robust Satellite data analysis Techniques (RST) have
been proposed and successfully applied for monitoring major natural and
environmental risks. Among the various fields of application, RST analysis
has been used as a suitable tool for satellite TIR surveys in seismically
active regions, devoted to detect and monitor thermal anomalies possibly
related to earthquake occurrence. In this work, RST has been applied, for the
first time, to thermal infrared observations collected by MODIS (Moderate
Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) – the sensor onboard EOS (Earth
Observing System) satellites – in the case of Abruzzo (Italy) earthquake
occurred on 6 April 2009 (ML~5.8). First achievements, shown in
this work, seem to confirm the sensitivity of the proposed approach in
detecting perturbations of the Earth�s emission thermal field few days before
the event. The reliability of such results, based on the analysis of
10 years of MODIS observations, seems to be supported by the results
achieved analyzing the same area in similar observation conditions but in
seismically unperturbed periods (no earthquakes with ML≥5) that
will be also presented. |
