The progress of geothermal energy generation has been stunted by a few factors, including the high costs of building the appropriate infrastructure, the efficiency of existing technologies, and ...

To date, our group has investigated multiple aspects on induced earthquakes and their impact on infrastructure. Aspects of this completed research include how much the seismic hazard has increased, ...

The first two were "suspected to have been induced," Earthquakes Canada said in a bulletin, while the British Columbia Energy Regulator has confirmed fracking caused the most powerful quake ...

To date, the Liel group has investigated multiple aspects on induced earthquakes and their impact on infrastructure. Aspects of this completed research include how much the seismic hazard has ...

According to the USGS, fracking, mining and building dams have all been attributed to induced seismicity, where an earthquake is caused by human activity. In the south-central United States ...

Still, the seismologist said that if the earthquake is confirmed as industry induced, it would represent a relatively major event much larger than the small earthquakes usually triggered by fluid ...

earthquake statistics and earthquakes induced by oil and gas production. Sean Kondas: A Study of the 2015 Plainfield, CT Earthquake Swarm: A Possible Case of Quarry-Induced Earthquake Activity (M.S.) ...

Most of them are human-induced, for example explosions in mines, quarries and construction sites, as well as earthquakes and collapses that have taken place in mines. Roughly 50 natural earthquakes ...
