Advances, Developments and Future Research into Seismicity in Natural and Anthropogenic Fluid-Driven Environments [Poster]
Date: 4/26/2019
Room: Fifth Avenue
Induced seismicity has been associated with many fluid-related anthropogenic activities, such as hydraulic fracturing, geothermal exploitation, waste-water injection and reservoir impoundment. However, fluid-induced seismicity can also be observed in natural environments, such as volcanic systems. Through recent advances in seismic monitoring, a closer examination of such seismicity can be achieved, particularly with regards to understanding the role of highly-pressurized fluids at depth and the consequences this may have at the surface. However, several fundamental questions remain, including: What factors control fluid-induced seismicity? What can be inferred from the seismicity in terms of ongoing processes? Can this information be used to inform hazard assessment, e.g., forecast volcanic eruptions or large induced earthquakes? Can comparisons between fluid-induced seismicity from different environments improve our understanding of the source processes involved?
This session aims to bring together a variety of topics related to fluid-induced seismicity to further our understanding of the physics behind earthquakes that are both natural and anthropogenic. We welcome contributions relating to seismicity in any fluid-driven environment. We are looking for abstracts related to lab experiments, statistical analysis, field observations and novel techniques in data processing/interpretation that characterize the physical conditions and mechanisms of fluid-related seismicity.
