Methods and objectives of STUB application
Geodesy: application of X-band SAR interferometry to determine the surface displacement field
Seismology: compilation of historic and recent seismic activity in the southern Rhine Graben and measurement of microseismicity in Staufen
Geology: localisation of active faults and domains of stress concentration by natural electromagnetic radiation (EMR)
Geotechnics: assessment and modelling of structural damages
Report STUB project 200912 28.04.2010 Kompetenzfeldtreffen "Geosphäre und Risikomanagement"
In close cooperation with Landratsamt Breisgau – Hochschwarzwald, Außenstelle Müllheim, the geodetic investigations should address the following questions:
Geodesy: questions and problems
Is it possible to quantify the small scale displacement field by X-band SAR-Interferometry?
Are the results of terrestrial levelling corroborated by the spatially dense SAR data?
Is the extension of the levelling network sufficient to cover the whole uplifting area?
Is the uplift restricted to the city center, or are there related movements in other parts of the city (e.g. industrial area Geisgraben) ?

Horizontal movements: an explanation for severe damage ?
There are only few indications for horizontal displace-ments from terrestrial observations
Horizontal movement is a possible explanation for the excess displace-ments seen by SAR
Report STUB project 200920 28.04.2010 Kompetenzfeldtreffen "Geosphäre und Risikomanagement"
ResultsThe independent SAR method corroborated the terrestrial observationsThe spatially dense SAR data helped to asses extension and shape of the uplifting region. Uplift is confined to the center of the city; no significant displacements occurs in the periphery. Indications for horizontal displacements
Outcome and ongoing work Quantification of the horizontal displacement field from a combination of
ascending and descending orbit acquisitions as well as levelling data Application of Persistent-Scatterer SAR-interferometric techniques Analysis of historical C-band data dating back to 1992 Lessions learnt will be incorporated into a running doctoral theses and

Well no 7 was not correctly sealed and established a pathway for the artesian ground water from the lower aquifers. Between 62 m and 99 m, anhydrite absorbs water and transforms to gypsum, which goes along with an approx. 60% volume increase.
