Induced Seismicity and Hydraulic Fracturing for the Recovery of Hydrocarbons (2013)
Journal Article
Davies, R., Foulger, G., Bindley, A., & Styles, P. (2013). Induced Seismicity and Hydraulic Fracturing for the Recovery of Hydrocarbons. Marine and Petroleum Geology, 45, 171-185. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2013.03.016

We compile published examples of induced earthquakes that have occurred since 1929 that have magnitudes equal to or greater than 1.0. Of the 198 possible examples, magnitudes range up to 7.9. The potential causes and magnitudes are (a) mining (M 1.6... Read More about Induced Seismicity and Hydraulic Fracturing for the Recovery of Hydrocarbons.

Caveats on tomographic images (2013)
Journal Article
Foulger, G., Panza, G., Artemieva, I., Bastow, I., Cammarano, F., Evans, J., …Yanovskaya, T. (2013). Caveats on tomographic images. Terra Nova, 25(4), 259-281. https://doi.org/10.1111/ter.12041

Geological and geodynamic models of the mantle often rely on joint interpretations of published seismic tomography images and petrological/geochemical data. This approach tends to neglect the fundamental limitations of, and uncertainties in, seismic... Read More about Caveats on tomographic images.

Microseismic monitoring of Newberry Volcano EGS Demonstration (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cladouhos, T., Petty, S., Nordin, Y., Moore, M., Grasso, K., Uddenberg, M., Sawyer, M., Julian, B., & Foulger, G. (2013, February). Microseismic monitoring of Newberry Volcano EGS Demonstration. Presented at Thirty-Eighth Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering, Stanford University, Stanford

Hydraulic stimulation of an existing deep, hot well on the west flank of Newberry Volcano was performed in the fall of 2012 as part of the Newberry EGS Demonstration. A microseismic array of 15 stations was installed in the summer to monitor the EGS... Read More about Microseismic monitoring of Newberry Volcano EGS Demonstration.
