Abstract

Through the last decade, the Differential SAR Interferometry (DInSAR) was more and more applied to measure ground deformation on Mt. Etna, allowing to investigate ground deformation pattern both at broad and local scales. In this paper a few significant results of the experiences carried out at the Remote Sensing Laboratory of the INGV, Section of Catania, are discussed. Many of them are relevant to the most recent eruptive events of this volcano.
