Abstract
Induced seismicity refers to seismicity caused by human activity. Most induced seismic events are much too small to be felt at the surface and are only detectable by specialized seismograph arrays. However, it is important to acknowledge that some instances of induced seismicity can be felt at the surface, and in those cases, it is a point of significant community concern. For the oil and gas industry, the most common cause of induced seismicity is related to the injection of fluids into the subsurface.
