| Summary: | After large-scale land consolidation in hilly loess region of the Loess Plateau in China, land subsidence has a wide affecting area and considerable difficulty of prevention. Hence, large-scale, stabilized, and continuous deformation monitoring is urgently needed for slopes. In this study, land consolidation zone in the loess platform area of Weinan, China, was selected as the object, and the 30-scene Sentinel-1A data in Jan, 2018 to Dec, 2019 were analyzed. The mean annual velocity of ground deformation was from -6.19 mm∙a-1 to 3.86 mm∙a-1, and Accumulated deformation velocity was within -8.49 mm∙a-1 to 7.24 mm∙a-1. Accumulated deformation of land consolidation changed with the seasons changing. The interrelationship between the spatiotemporal variations in ground subsidence and the precipitation, ground water, loess engineering properties was also discussed. Accumulated deformation of land consolidation changed with the seasons changing. The precipitation accelerated the subsidence by unexpected strong precipitation reflects that the infiltration of rainwater can lead to compacted loess deformation which caused by moistening effect. Under varying ground water environment, external loads may lead to soil collapse, resulting in non-uniform land subsidence. Co-compression deformation of original loess and compacted loess is main influencing factors of subsidence. These findings have important implications and significant positive effects on the prevention of potential hazard such as subsidence and side slope slip.
