Shallow Aquifer Vulnerability From Subsurface Fluid Injection at a Proposed Shale Gas Hydraulic Fracturing Site (2017)
Journal Article
Wilson, M., Worrall, F., Davies, R., & Hart, A. (2017). Shallow Aquifer Vulnerability From Subsurface Fluid Injection at a Proposed Shale Gas Hydraulic Fracturing Site. Water Resources Research, 53(11), 9922-9940. https://doi.org/10.1002/2017wr021234

Groundwater flow resulting from a proposed hydraulic fracturing (fracking) operation was numerically modeled using 91 scenarios. Scenarios were chosen to be a combination of hydrogeological factors that a priori would control the long-term migration...

HiQuake—The Human‐Induced Earthquake Database is the most complete database of anthropogenic projects proposed, on scientific grounds, to have induced earthquake sequences. It is freely available to download from the website given in Data and Resourc... Read More about HiQuake: The Human-Induced Earthquake Database.

Gas venting that bypasses the feather edge of marine hydrate, offshore Mauritania (2017)
Journal Article
Li, A., Davies, R. J., Mathias, S., Yang, J., Hobbs, R., & Wilson, M. (2017). Gas venting that bypasses the feather edge of marine hydrate, offshore Mauritania. Marine and Petroleum Geology, 88, 402-409. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2017.08.026

Methane can be released from the vast marine hydrate reservoirs that surround continents into oceans and perhaps the atmosphere. But how these pathways work within the global carbon cycle now and during a warmer world is only partially understood. He...

Global review of human-induced earthquakes (2017)
Journal Article
Foulger, G. R., Wilson, M., Gluyas, J., Julian, B. R., & Davies, R. (2018). Global review of human-induced earthquakes. Earth-Science Reviews, 178, 438-514. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2017.07.008

The Human-induced Earthquake Database, HiQuake, is a comprehensive record of earthquake sequences postulated to be induced by anthropogenic activity. It contains over 700 cases spanning the period 1868–2016. Activities that have been proposed to indu... Read More about Global review of human-induced earthquakes.
