Fluid-induced seismicity has been observed and recorded for decades. Seismic energy necessarily requires a source, which is frequently related to rock fracture either in compression or tension. In both cases, such fracture may be promoted by crustal... Read More about Laboratory simulations of fluid-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracture, and fluid flow.
