Aerosol formation from oil and gas development in the Eagle Ford Shale in two different seasons
Unconventional oil and gas development (UOGD) has grown significantly in the United States in the last several decades. This growth has influenced natural gas availability and reshaped the global energy economy. However, the effects on air quality remain uncertain. This work focuses on …

Hydraulic-fracturing induced seismicity in Alberta, Canada: Analysis and interpretation using dense local arrays
Unconventional oil and gas development is associated with anthropogenic earthquake activity worldwide. In particular, hydraulic fracturing, which involves the injection of high-pressure fluids into the subsurface, has been observed to trigger induced seismicity in some areas. The Duvernay Formation …

Mechanisms of Interaction Between Hydraulic and Natural Fractures in Shale Rocks
Understanding the interaction between hydraulically induced fractures and pre-existing natural fractures in geologic formations is key for optimizing subsurface energy systems that rely on fluid injection into fractured rocks. These include Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS), CO₂ sequestration, …
