Earthquake Experts: Yes, Fracking Earthquakes Are A Thing (via Renewable Energy News | Alphatech5) By Tina Casey When the Seismological Society of America says that fracking earthquakes are a real thing, then it’s a good bet that they are. The...

The Seismological Society of America (SSA) has said in a new report that fracking can induce stress in existing faults tens of miles away from the fracking site. The injection of pressurized water puts stress on pre-existing faults and can cause them...

Alaska's seismic network records thousands of quakes produced by glaciers, capturing valuable data that scientists could use to better understand their behavior, but instead their seismic signals are set aside as oddities. The current earthquake monitoring...

Ongoing hydraulic fracking operations will only exacerbate seismic activity, leading to heightened earthquakes in areas where wastewater is injected deep underground, according to new research. To unleash natural gas, hydraulic fracturing - or fracking...
