Modelling Spatiotemporal Relationships between Waste Water Injection and Induced Seismicity

Description

Induced seismicity refers to earthquakes that are caused as a result of human activity, such as disposing of wastewater by injecting it into the subsurface. This project will focus on spatiotemporal statistics to model space-time relationships between injected wastewater and induced earthquakes. The model will incorporate space-time data pertaining to seismic activity and associated human systems to create forecasts of induced earthquakes.
