Abstract

We have applied wavelet techniques to analyze GPS time-series data from REGID geodetic network, deployed at Deception Island Volcano (South Shetland Islands, Antarctica). In the present analysis wavelets are used to detect periodic components and to filter the data. The high frequency components can be associated to the orbital period of the satellites and to local tidal effects, whereas the medium frequencies seem to be related to the weather cycle. The wavelet filtering procedure is based on the SURE estimator, and a considerable reduction in noise is achieved, particularly in the Up component, whose deviation is reduced down to the deviation of the horizontal components before the denoising. An estimation of the displacements in the network for the period 2001/02 – 2005/06 is also included.
