Summary

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data from the European Space Agency's (ESA) Sentinel-1A satellite were acquired for this study from the Alaska Satellite Facility (ASF) and used to generate spatially detailed land-surface deformation maps (interferograms) for the Mojave River and Morongo groundwater basins during 2014–19 using InSAR methods.

Purpose

The purpose of this report is to release the data used to evaluate land subsidence during 2014–19 for the Mojave Water Agency management area in the southwestern Mojave Desert. InSAR-derived land subsidence data included in this data release are documented in "Land Subsidence in the Mojave River and Morongo Groundwater Basins, Southwestern Mojave Desert, California, 2014–19" and is integrated into the broader scoped USGS Mojave Groundwater Resources Web site (https://ca.water.usgs.gov/mojave/), which includes an interactive map.
