Changes in permeability caused by transient stresses: Field observations, experiments, and mechanisms

M Manga, I Beresnev, EE Brodsky… - Reviews of …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Oscillations in stress, such as those created by earthquakes, can increase permeability and
fluid mobility in geologic media. In natural systems, strain amplitudes as small as 10− 6 can …

Evidence for aseismic deformation rate changes prior to earthquakes

EA Roeloffs - Annu. Rev. Earth Planet. Sci., 2006 - annualreviews.org
For ten earthquakes in nonmagmatic settings, there are credible published accounts of pre-
earthquake deformation-rate changes lasting hundreds of seconds to more than a decade …

A test of the unified neutral theory of biodiversity

BJ McGill - Nature, 2003 - nature.com
One of the fundamental questions of ecology is what controls biodiversity. Recent theory
suggests that biodiversity is controlled predominantly by neutral drift of species …

Earthquakes influenced by water

C Wang, M Manga - Water and Earthquakes, 2021 - Springer
Injecting fluids in the crust, or their extraction, changes pore pressure and poroelastic
stresses. Both pressure and stress changes can promote seismicity and, hence, the seismic …

Earthquake swarms driven by aseismic creep in the Salton Trough, California

RB Lohman, JJ McGuire - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
In late August 2005, a swarm of more than a thousand earthquakes between magnitudes 1
and 5.1 occurred at the Obsidian Buttes, near the southern San Andreas Fault. This swarm …

Hydrologic responses to earthquakes and a general metric

CY Wang, M Manga - Geofluids, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Geofluids (2010) 10, 206–216 Abstract Hydrologic responses to earthquakes, including
liquefaction, changes in stream and spring discharge, changes in the properties of …

Mechanism of co-seismic water level change following four great earthquakes–insights from co-seismic responses throughout the Chinese mainland

Z Shi, G Wang, M Manga, CY Wang - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2015 - Elsevier
We analyze the co-seismic groundwater level responses to four great earthquakes recorded
by China's network of groundwater monitoring wells. The large number of operational wells …

Magmatic events can produce rapid changes in hydrothermal vent chemistry

MD Lilley, DA Butterfield, JE Lupton, EJ Olson - Nature, 2003 - nature.com
The Endeavour segment of the Juan de Fuca ridge is host to one of the most vigorous
hydrothermal areas found on the global mid-ocean-ridge system, with five separate vent …

Hydromechanical coupling in geologic processes

CE Neuzil - Hydrogeology Journal, 2003 - Springer
Earth's porous crust and the fluids within it are intimately linked through their mechanical
effects on each other. This paper presents an overview of such" hydromechanical" coupling …

In situ observations on the coupling between hydraulic diffusivity and displacements during fault reactivation in shales

Y Guglielmi, D Elsworth, F Cappa… - Journal of …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Key questions in fault reactivation in shales relate to the potential for enhanced fluid
transport through previously low‐permeability aseismic formations. Here we explore the …
