   Induced Seismicity
   In addition to natural causes, human activities can trigger seismic events. This induced seismicity is often associated with deep fluid injection (e.g., wastewater disposal from hydraulic fracturing operations), underground nuclear testing, or the impoundment of large reservoirs. The lubrication effect of injected fluids can effectively reduce the frictional resistance along pre-existing faults, allowing them to slip at stresses well …
