• Canadian Induced Seismicity Collaboration

The Canadian Induced Seismicity Collaboration was set up in response to the growing realisation that new resource extraction technologies could induce earthquakes. This research focuses on the processes of induced seismicity and associated hazards.

• IS-EPOS Platform from EPOS Thematic Core Service Anthropogenic Hazards (EPOS TCS AH)

The platform provides unique induced seismicity datasets (33 worldwide episodes) and enables users to process them with specialised software in their own workspace. Additionally, references, reports and methods connected with the datasets are available.

• KNMI (Koninklijk Nederlands Meteorologisch Instituut)

The seismic network of the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) records earthquakes in the Netherlands and surrounding regions. Their catalogue of earthquakes distinguishes between natural (tectonic) earthquakes and induced earthquakes.

• Researching Fracking (ReFINE)

ReFINE is the leading international research consortium on shale-gas hydrofracturing. ReFINE has conducted investigations of induced earthquakes.

• Stanford Center for Induced and Triggered Seismicity (SCITS)

SCITS is an industrial affiliates program researching induced and triggered earthquakes.

• U.S. Department of Energy

The U.S. Department of Energy, in conjunction with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, provides information on induced seismicity.

• United States Geological Survey (USGS)

The USGS provides information and publications on induced seismicity.
