DOI: 10.1029/2019gl083562
Abstract: The current paradigm for estimating regional long‐term seismic hazard involves declustering whereby aftershocks are removed from an earthquake catalog to identify the underlying background seismicity rate. Inaccurate declustering can ultimately underestimate or overestimate the regional… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2019gl085705
Abstract: Induced seismicity has expanded into south‐central Kansas, an area with rare damaging natural earthquakes, leading to the second‐highest seismicity rate in the central United States after Oklahoma. Here we assess the mechanical effects of large‐scale… read more here.
