Managing the Risk of Triggered Seismicity - Lecture U34A-05

Explore the critical topic of managing triggered seismicity risks in this 21-minute AGU conference talk. Delve into the causes and consequences of triggered earthquakes, examining detailed maps and data on water injection, well head pressure, and injection rates. Understand the significance of certain faults and their potential for seismic activity, including a case study of the Prague Earthquake and the Nemaha Fault. Learn about the innovative Stoplight System and essential geologic criteria used to assess and mitigate seismic hazards associated with human activities.
