Motagh M.

Motagh M. is a Researcher at the Deutsches GeoForschungsZentrum (GFZ) in Potsdam, Germany. With expertise in Remote Sensing and Geodesy, their work focuses on geohazard assessment through satellite-based interferometric techniques.

• Current research explores land subsidence in Afghanistan and Iran using Sentinel-1 data
• Developing hybrid machine learning models for landslide susceptibility assessment
• Pioneering quantum machine learning applications in deformation detection
• Investigating mining-induced subsidence in Germany's Hambach region
• Contributing to multi-sensor InSAR integration for complex geological analysis

Publications since 2011 demonstrate sustained contributions to:

• Earthquake source modeling (e.g., Christchurch 2011, Maule Chile 2010)
• Volcanic deformation studies in Iceland
• Environmental geoscience applications across three continents

Collaborations span institutions in:

• New Zealand (University of Canterbury, GNS Science)
• Iran (University of Tehran, K. N. Toosi University)
• Germany (GFZ Potsdam, Technical University Munich)
• USA (University of Miami)
