Two papers from Lei on injection-induced seismicity in the lab

Lei Wang published two papers analyzing injection-induced seismicity from the laboratory experiments on rock samples. The first paper was published in EPSL (Earth and Planetary Science Letters) and is entitled “Injection-induced fault slip and associated seismicity in the lab: Insights from source mechanisms, local stress states and fault geometry“. The title of the second one, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is “Fault roughness controls injection-induced seismicity“. The latter one got a proper press release on the GFZ website, where you can read in more details about this interesting study.
