S24A:
Induced Seismicity Hazards and Processes III Posters

Submit an Abstract to this Session

Session ID#: 5792

Session Description:
Seismicity that is induced or triggered by human activities such as fluid disposal or withdrawal, hydraulic fracture treatments, mining or reservoir impoundment has important implications from both practical and theoretical points of view.  We invite case histories that document recent induced-seismicity occurrences.  We also invite papers presenting physical or statistical models of induced-seismicity processes, and/or models of ground motions or hazard assessment related to induced seismicity.  Presentations from industry, academic and government agencies are equally encouraged; we aim to stimulate discussions on this timely issue, covering a wide range of perspectives.
