Project Summary
The objective of the project is to evaluate the ongoing downslope movement of the western flank of Arenal using a combination of methods including GPS, InSAR, and repeat TLS measurements. Data will be combined with previous to test a range of models to explain the rapid subsidence currently observed across the western flank of Arenal.
