Some researchers have suggested that soil gas emissions in seismic areas study can be used to understand the relationship between gas formation, release, and migration during earthquakes and maybe predict them. Among these gas, researchers studied CO2 and Radon. Radon is a natural gas produced by the radioactive decay of the element radium formed ...
” The location and potential size of any possible CO2 leakage at the seafloor is critically dependent on the distribution and permeability of fluid pathways in the marine sediments overlying any proposed storage reservoir. This bold marine seismic experiment aims to detect anisotropy around a North Sea chimney structure, and to relate that anisotropy to fracture networks ...
The Oklahoma Geological Survey said Tuesday it is "very likely" that most of the state's recent earthquakes were triggered by the subsurface injection of wastewater from oil and natural gas drilling operations. Geologists have been studying the cause of hundreds of earthquakes that have shaken the homes and the nerves of residents in central and north-central Oklahoma, where the ...
PG&E spokesman Blair Jones said the NRC has exhaustively analyzed earthquake threats for Diablo Canyon and demonstrated that it "is seismically safe." Jones said in an email that the core issue involving earthquake ground motions was resolved in the late 1970s with seismic retrofitting of the plant. ...

Over the next few weeks we’ll be carrying out an additional seismic study, continuing our groundwater monitoring program and buttoning up the site for the winter months ahead. ...
The range of probabilities is due to uncertainties in our current understanding of the seismicity and tectonics of the region. Further study of the historical seismicity and the geological characteristics of the Enriquillo fault zone will help to reduce the uncertainty. ...
