Abstract:One of the most important and widely used renewable energy sources is hydroelectric energy produced via Water Reservoir Impoundment (WRI). WRI can trigger strong earthquakes under favourable geological conditions. Thus, the socio-economic impact of reservoir triggered seismicity is very significant. Although many studies have investigated the relationship between the pore pressure changes due to WRI and the observed seismicity, hydromechanical models that explain the observed processes are rare. Here, we inves… Show more
