“…HF induced earthquakes have been recognized around the globe: in the UK (Clarke et al., 2014), British Columbia (Babaie Mahani et al., 2017), Alberta (Schultz, Stern, et al., 2015, Schultz, Mei, et al., 2015), Ohio (Skoumal et al., 2015), Oklahoma (Skoumal et al., 2018), Arkansas (Yoon et al., 2017), Texas (Fasola et al., 2019), and China (Lei et al., 2019). While these earthquakes are only rarely induced by wells in susceptible locations (Atkinson et al., 2016; Galloway et al., 2018; Pawley et al., 2018), perceptions around their risks have caused public concern and impeded industry development (Ghofrani et al., 2019; Grigoratos et al., 2021). Specifically, public concerns about induced earthquakes tend to fixate on questions about their causes and their impacts on personal safety (Hillman et al., 2019).…”
