Video Summary
AI GeneratedScientists are using high-precision GPS and satellite radar to monitor millimeter-scale movements in Colorado's crust. The region is geologically dynamic, shaped by tectonic rifts, volcanic history, and seasonal shifts. By integrating advanced technology, researchers can distinguish between long-term tectonic evolution and short-term deformations caused by snowmelt and groundwater.
