Abstract

Human-induced earthquakes are an issue of foremost significance affecting multiple industries such as geothermal, oil and gas, water, mining, and waste disposal. Current research addresses global monitoring of induced earthquakes, case histories, improving monitoring techniques, understanding the physical mechanisms involved, forecasting, mitigating risk, predicting the magnitude of the largest possible earthquake, and assessing impacts and stakeholder opinion. This Guest Editor Collection presents over 20 research papers summarizing the current state of knowledge throughout all aspects of the subject, and comprises an excellent resource for stakeholders.
