We are one of the first to get such results, thanks to the close collaboration with Japan's Earth Remote Sensing Data Analysis Center (ERSDAC) and Kochi Women’s University. Details of our results are available from the webpage http://www.gmat.unsw.edu.au/LinlinGe/Earthquake/. See also news release...
