Abstract The Human-induced Earthquake Database, HiQuake, is a comprehensive record of
earthquake sequences postulated to be induced by anthropogenic activity. It contains over …

The rapid rise of shale gas development through horizontal drilling and high volume
hydraulic fracturing has expanded the extraction of hydrocarbon resources in the US The …

Hydraulic fracturing has been inferred to trigger the majority of injection-induced
earthquakes in western Canada, in contrast to the Midwestern United States, where massive …

Naturally fractured rock mass is highly inhomogeneous and contains geological
discontinuities at various length scales. Hydraulic fracture stimulation in such a medium …

Multiphase flow in porous media is important in many natural and industrial processes,
including geologic CO2 sequestration, enhanced oil recovery, and water infiltration into soil …

Background Human-induced earthquakes have become an important topic of political and
scientific discussion, owing to the concern that these events may be responsible for …

The development of most unconventional oil and gas resources relies upon subsurface
injection of very large volumes of fluids, which can induce earthquakes by activating slip on …

Combining two solutions of different composition releases the Gibbs free energy of mixing.
By using engineered processes to control the mixing, chemical energy stored in salinity …

During the past decades, significant progress has been made in the development of induced
seismicity monitoring for related human activities. Hydraulic fracturing and induced …

The ability of fluid-generated subsurface stress changes to trigger earthquakes has long
been recognized. However, the dramatic rise in the rate of human-induced earthquakes in …
