Abstract

This study presents an assessment of the displacements of the Earth's crust generated in the last ten years in the region of the Balkan Peninsula after recorded earthquakes. The Balkan Peninsula is one of the most seismic areas in Europe, since the beginning of the twentieth century several superficial destructive earthquakes of magnitude greater than 6.0 have been recorded. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a remote sensing technique allowing to measure deformation with cm-precision over large areas. We are focused on the co-seismic displacements associated with earthquakes with over value 5.5 Mw happening on to the Balkan Peninsula. The main data source is SAR satellite images from Sentinel-1A and B-from ascending and descending orbits. The results were obtained applying the differential radar interferometry method (DInSAR) and compared with deformations of the Earth's surface registered by GNSS and other geophysics methods.
