Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been identified as an urgent, strategic and essential
approach to reduce anthropogenic CO 2 emissions, and mitigate the severe consequences …

Due to the deep socioeconomic implications, induced seismicity is a timely and increasingly
relevant topic of interest for the general public. Cases of induced seismicity have a global …

Fluid overpressure is one of the primary mechanisms for tectonic fault slip, because fluids
lubricate the fault and fluid pressure reduces the effective normal stress that holds the fault in …

It is widely recognized that the significant increase of M> 3.0 earthquakes in Western
Canada and the Central United States is related to underground fluid injection. Following …

Understanding the physical mechanisms that underpin the link between fluid injection and
seismicity is essential in efforts to mitigate the seismic risk associated with subsurface …

The Anthropocene is a major new concept in the Earth sciences and this book examines the
effects on geomorphology within this period. Drawing examples from many different global …

Studying faults capable of releasing moderate-to-strong earthquakes is fundamental for
seismic hazard studies, especially in a territory that was subject to the strongest peninsular …

Various phenomena in the subsurface are characterised by the interplay between deforming
structures such as fractures and coupled thermal, hydraulic and mechanical processes …

The non-tectonic deformation, either of natural or anthropogenic origin, may influence the
earthquake occurrence process and seismicity rate along the plate-boundary or 'stable'plate …

Wastewater injection into a high‐rate well in the Val d'Agri oilfield, the largest in onshore
Europe, has induced swarm microseismicity since the initiation of disposal in 2006. To …
