On the origin of exponential growth in induced earthquakes in Groningen
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Anton F. P. van Putten, Michael J. A. M. van Putten
The Groningen gas field shows exponential growth in earthquakes event counts around a magnitude M1 with a doubling time of 6-9 years since 2001. This behavior is identified with di…

Evolution of induced earthquakes from dimensionless scaling
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Anton F. P. van Putten, Michel J. A. M. van Putten
Event counts are a powerful diagnostic for earthquake analysis. We report on a bimodal distribution of earthquake event counts in the U.S. since 2013. The new peak is about a magni…
