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

Abstract Knowledge of the crustal stress state is important for the assessment of subsurface
stability. In particular, stress magnitudes are essential for the calibration of geomechanical …

Twitter is an established social media platform valued by scholars as an open way to
disseminate scientific information and to publicly discuss research results. Scientific …

We present results of detailed studies of the Muyakan earthquake sequence, which occurred
in the North Muya region of the Baikal rift zone and which is the largest one in the Baikal …

Mining activities are well known for being able to induce local seismicity but have not yet
been shown to cause earthquakes over large distances. We analyze a particular group of …

SUMMARY The United Kingdom (UK) experiences low-to-moderate levels of seismicity; only
12 onshore earthquakes with local magnitude (ML)≥ 4.0 have been recorded in the past 20 …

The operations needed to decarbonize our energy systems increasingly involve faulted
rocks in the subsurface. To manage the technical challenges presented by these rocks and …

Seismic monitoring matters both for research and for populations living in areas of seismic
hazard; however, it comes with a cost that is not fully affordable for developing countries …

The central part of the Pannonian Basin is characterised by low to medium seismicity. North
central Hungary is one of the most dangerous areas of the country in terms of earthquakes …
