Pre-Existing Structure and Stress Shape Geothermal-Induced Seismicity

by Xiaowei Chen 2 June 20261 June 2026

At China’s first Enhanced Geothermal System site, dense seismic observations, integrated with borehole data and stress modeling, reveal weak faults and scale-dependent control of stress and structure on induced seismicity.

Are We Really Seeing More Foreshocks with Enhanced Catalogs?

by Xiaowei Chen 13 January 20269 January 2026

Different definitions and selection methods can lead to large differences in estimated foreshock rates; however, robust statistical method shows that foreshock rates are similar between standard and enhanced catalog.
