The role of fluid pressure in induced vs. triggered seismicity: insights from rock deformation experiments on carbonates

Fluid overpressure is one of the primary mechanisms for tectonic fault slip, because fluids lubricate the fault and fluid pressure reduces the effective normal stress that holds the fault in place. However, current models of earthquake nucleation, based on rate- and state- friction laws, imply that...
