HiQuake is the largest and most up-to-date database of industrial projects proposed to have induced or triggered earthquakes.
Induced Seismicity - Department of Energy
The primary source for induced seismicity near unconventional oil and gas plays is not from hydraulic fracturing but rather the deep disposal of water ...
Hydraulic Fracturing & Induced Seismicity
Induced seismicity refers to seismic events that are a result of human activity. There are many different ways in which human activity can cause induced ...
The major triggering mechanism of injection-induced seismicity is pore-pressure diffusion, which reduces the normal stress acting on fractures ...
Induced Earthquakes Overview | U.S. Geological Survey - USGS.gov
The USGS installs seismometers in areas of increased seismicity, provides hazard estimations, and uses numerical models.

Induced Seismicity - Annual Reviews
The ability of fluid-generated subsurface stress changes to trigger earthquakes has long been recognized. However, the dramatic rise in the rate of ...
The extra water pressure created by large reservoirs is the most accepted explanation for the seismic activity. ... When the reservoirs are filled ...
Protocol for Addressing Induced Seismicity Associated with ...
We use “ground shaking” and “ground motion” interchangeably when referring to the ground motions resulting from natural earthquakes and induced seismic events.
Global physics-based database of injection-induced seismicity
It contains 158 datasets of induced seismicity caused by various subsurface energy-related applications worldwide.
