Description
Gillian Foulger and Longjun Dong introduce a journal collection on earthquakes caused by human activity, in a 2024 overview. Pumping, mining, and waste injection can all shake the ground, and public patience for such shakes is thinning. The collection gathers over twenty papers on the state of the field.
Topics span world monitoring, case histories, better sensing, and the physics of how projects trigger quakes. Forecasting, risk cuts, and the largest shake a project might cause all get coverage, as do public views. The editors frame induced quakes as a problem that can stall green energy and other projects if mishandled. Stakeholders get a single shelf for the field's current knowledge.
