Causal mechanism of injection-induced earthquakes through the Mw 5.5 Pohang earthquake case study

The authors here suggest a causal mechanism for injection-induced earthquakes. They further suggest pore pressure modeling as a practical alternative to direct in-situ pore pressure observation which can then be used for stress build-up monitoring.
