Two long-term slow slip events(SSEs) in Lower Cook Inlet, Alaska, were identified by Li SS et al.(2016). The earlier SSE lasted at least 9 years with M_(w) ~7.8 and had an average slip rate of ~82 mm/year. The latter ...

Triggered seismicity is a key hazard where fluids are injected or withdrawn from the subsurface and may impact permeability. Understanding the mechanisms that control fluid injection-triggered seismicity allows its mi...
Earthquakes are classified as one of the most devastating natural disasters that can have catastrophic effects on the environment,lives,and properties.There has been an increasing interest in the prediction of earthqu...

The control and management of mining-induced seismic hazards have attracted ever-rising attention,especially in underground longwall coal mines,where continuous mining activities dynamically alter the stress states an...
A database for the seismicity of the Tehri region (29.5˚N - 31.5˚N and 77.5˚E - 79.5˚E) from November 1, 1853, to March 31, 1989, has been prepared using a Compatible Personal Computer System. The seismicity database ...
