Fluidinduced seismicityGeneral physical constraints
According to the characteristics of the fluid pressure perturbation respect to the stress field in the rock, the generated fluidinduced seismicity can be
associated with different physical processes (e.g., Shapiro et al., 2007):

According to the characteristics of the fluid pressure perturbation respect to the stress field in the rock, the generated fluidinduced seismicity can be
associated with different physical processes (e.g., Shapiro et al., 2007):

The behavior of seismicity triggering in space and time is mainly controlled by a process of relaxation of stress and pore
pressure perturbations initially created atthe injection source.

A template exponential distribution of IET, with a linear function relating the logarithm of the

This result suggests that the μ parameter of the
