“…Aunque en investigaciones nacionales (Flórez-Hurtado et al, 2013;Muñoz-Burbano et al, 2015) e internacionales (Haggag et al, 2009;Lizurek et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2018), se han definido modelos de velocidad con el fin de mejorar la localización (y/o relocalizar) de los eventos sísmicos, el presente trabajo no incorporó este procesamiento, y empleó la información de referencia obtenida mediante consulta a la página web de la RSNC, reconociendo la calidad y limitaciones de los datos.…”

“…Este análisis se centró en sismos con magnitud M L ≥ 3,0 cuyo umbral es superior a la magnitud de completitud de la relación G-R obtenida del catálogo de eventos de la consulta inicial y cuya energía liberada podría ofrecer alguna condición de riesgo para las poblaciones cercanas. En cualquier caso, esta magnitud es inferior en comparación con otros estudios, donde se han empleado límites M L ≥ 3,5 (Dahm et al, 2010;Mikhailov et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2018).…”

“…Zhang et al 17 conducted correlation analysis and impulse response analysis on earthquake and water level data from 2003 to 2009 and revealed the characteristics of rapid and delayed seismic responses to reservoir impoundment in the surrounding area. Zhang et al 18 analyzed the characteristics of the focal mechanism solution of the seismicity near the Fairy Mount fault in the Zigui area during the loading and unloading stages and discussed the seismogenic mechanism of the earthquakes in this region. Since 2008, the Three Gorges Reservoir has entered a periodic loading and unloading stage, and the reservoir water level fluctuates periodically between 145 and 175 m each year.…”

“…The influence of reservoir impoundment on seismicity is complex, depending on the reservoir operation, regional geologic and tectonic settings, and hydro‐mechanical characteristics of rock masses (Gupta, 2002). Since the first case of Lake Mead in the late 1930s (Carder, 1945), there have been numerous reservoirs that are associated with triggered seismicity (do Nascimento et al., 2005; El Hariri et al., 2010; Ge et al., 2009; Gupta, 1992, 2002; Lamontagne et al., 2006; Stabile et al., 2014; Zhang et al., 2018). The physical mechanisms of increased seismicity pertinent to reservoir impoundment have been extensively studied (Gupta, 1985; Ruiz‐Barajas et al., 2019; Simpson, 1976; Talwani & Acree, 1984; Talwani, 1997), and generally can be attributed to the pore pressure diffusion and the reservoir gravitational loading (Bell & Nur, 1978; Simpson et al., 1988).…”
