A new paradigm for large earthquakes in stable continental plate interiors
Large earthquakes within stable continental regions (SCR) show that significant amounts of
elastic strain can be released on geological structures far from plate boundary faults, where …

Fluid‐induced swarms and coseismic stress transfer: A dual process highlighted in the aftershock sequence of the 7 April 2014 earthquake (Ml 4.8, Ubaye, France)
The upper part of the Ubaye Valley (French Alps) is characterized by alternating mainshock‐
aftershock sequences and swarms. Particularly, during the 2012–2015 crisis, four …

Swarms and mainshock–aftershocks sequences are both triggered by fluids in the Ubaye Region (Western Alps)
SUMMARY The Ubaye Region (French Western Alps) is one of the most seismically active
regions in France. It is regularly struck by mainshock–aftershocks sequences like in 1959 …

Groundwater recharge as the trigger of naturally occurring intraplate earthquakes
JK Costain - Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2017 - lyellcollection.org
I explore the hypothesis that most intraplate earthquakes and their aftershock sequences are
triggered by pore-fluid pressure increases. As proposed in this paper, data from the …
