%T A seismological model for earthquakes induced by fluid extraction from a subsurface reservoir
%X A seismological model is developed for earthquakes induced by subsurface reservoir volume
changes. The approach is based on the work of Kostrov (1974) and McGarr (1976) linking total strain to the
summed seismic moment in an earthquake catalog. We refer to the fraction of the total strain expressed as
seismic moment as the strain partitioning function,
