Anthropogenic operations involving underground fluid extraction or injection can cause
unexpectedly large and even damaging earthquakes, despite operational and regulatory …

Geothermal energy is a green source of power that could play an important role in climate‐
conscious energy portfolios; enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) have the potential to …

The global number of megacities is projected to increase from 33 to 43 by 2030. Megacities
are critical for the world's economy; however, their resource management is particularly …

The fundamental objective of earthquake engineering is to protect lives and livelihoods
through the reduction of seismic risk. Directly or indirectly, this generally requires …

We present an overview of induced seismicity due to subsurface engineering in the
Netherlands. Our overview includes events induced by gas extraction, underground gas …

Risks from induced earthquakes are a growing concern that needs effective management.
For hydraulic fracturing of the Eagle Ford shale in southern Texas, we developed a risk …

Induced seismicity due to fluid injection, including hydraulic fracturing, is an increasingly
common phenomenon worldwide; yet, the mechanisms by which hydraulic fracturing causes …

Fluid injection into geological formations for energy resource development frequently
induces (micro) seismicity. Moderate-to large-magnitude induced earthquakes may cause …

Earthquakes caused by human activities receive scrutiny due to the risks and hazards they
pose. Seismicity that occurs after the causative anthropogenic operation stops has been …

Identifying the causal factors behind elevated seismicity rates in areas with multiple ongoing
oil and gas activities has always been a challenging issue that is lacking a homogeneous …
