8 Land subsidence risk to infrastructure in US metropolises comentada em 08/08/2025 22:14 Assuntos Gerais JORGE.ESCOBAR em 04/08/25 19:32 comentada em 08/08/2025 22:14 "Here we use space geodetic measurements from 2015 to 2021 to create high-resolution maps of subsidence rates for the 28 most populous US cities. We estimate that at least 20% of the urban area is sinking in all cities, mainly due to groundwater extraction, affecting ~34 million people. Additionally, more than 29,000 buildings are located in high and very high damage risk areas, indicating a greater likelihood of infrastructure damage."Fonte: https://www.nature.com/articles/s44284-025-00240-y
