“…We note that any seasonal changes in the time‐varying amplitudes (Cleveland et al., 1990; Köhne et al., 2023) should be examined in a future study. Furthermore, careful consideration must be taken to exclude the effects of both groundwater (Morishita et al., 2020; Sato et al., 2003; Shimada et al., 2021) and snow accretion on the GPS antenna (Heki & Jin, 2023; Larson, 2013; Larson et al., 2015) from the vertical displacements when estimating the spatiotemporal distribution of the surface load. Note that Heki and Jin (2023) proposed a method to discriminate fake signals due to snow accretion from real subsidence.…”
