"Millions of #homes are at risk from climate-related #subsidence, according to an analysis by the British Geological Survey (BGS). As hotter, drier summers driven by #globalheating become more frequent, the ground under houses can shrink & drag down a property’s foundations. The most vulnerable areas include London, Essex, Kent & a tranche of land from Oxford up to the Wash on England’s east coast, according to scientists, who say mitigation measures will be needed."

NASA Uses Satellite to Monitor Mexico City’s Ongoing Land Subsidence

Mexico City has been sinking for over a century due to the over-extraction of groundwater from the ancient lake bed beneath the city. This continuous sinking has caused noticeable tilting in historic…

US–Indian space mission maps extreme subsidence in Mexico City

One of the most powerful radar systems ever launched into space has mapped the ground moving beneath one of the fastest subsiding capitals in the world: Mexico City. The findings show how quickly and reliably the NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellite can track real-time changes across Earth's surface from orbit, unhindered by clouds or vegetation that impede optical sensors and higher-frequency radars.
