Tinted detail of a photo: Wet sand on a beach rippled into many small wavy ridges, with a shallow channel of water behind and grassy land below sharp, dark, partly snow-dusted peaks under white clouds.

Fluid injection-induced seismicity: the case of hydrofracking

Seismicity is undoubtedly an integral part of Geodynamics, since seismic data, from large-scale geophysical monitoring, can provide many valuable insights regarding the state of the Earth’s crust; seismicity, however, is not always natural, it can also be induced. In this week’s blog, we explored the subject of fluid injection-induced seismicity mainly through the lens of …[Read More]
