Hydraulic fracturing (HF) is a technique that is used for extracting petroleum resources from
impermeable host rocks. In this process, fluid injected under high pressure causes fractures …

As recently as 2015, it was common in the scientific literature to find assertions that the risk
of triggering a damaging earthquake by hydraulic fracturing (HF)—an industrial process …

The discipline of seismology is based on observations of ground motion that are inherently
undersampled in space and time. Our basic understanding of earthquake processes and our …

Source processes of injection‐induced earthquakes involve complex fluid‐rock interaction
often elusive to regional seismic monitoring. Here we combine observations from a local …

Aseismic slip loading has recently been proposed as a complementary mechanism to
induce moderate-sized earthquakes located within a few kilometers of the wellbore over the …

On 17 August 2015, an M w 4.6 earthquake occurred northwest of Fort St. John, British
Columbia, possibly induced by hydraulic fracturing (HF). We use data from eight broadband …

This study presents observations using new data from a deployment of eight broadband
seismometers surrounding a horizontal well pad at distances of~ 1–3 km for the period …

Hydraulic stimulation to enhance energy extraction from geothermal and unconventional
resources is typically accompanied by seismicity because injection changes pore pressures …

Previous studies documented a relative scarcity of remote dynamic triggering of earthquakes
in Japan and suggested that it could be related to Japan's predominantly compressive …

The M w 4.6 earthquake that occurred on 17 August 2015 northwest of Fort St. John, British
Columbia, is considered the largest hydraulic‐fracturing‐induced event in Canada, based …
