New injection earthquakes in Arkansas


It's the weirdest thing.  These zones suddenly blow up with a lot of earthquakes, and then they stop.  I'm assuming the state is shutting down the wells.  I don't think the earthquakes suddenly stop while they are still injecting, since they always start to form the most beautiful mechanisms.  You can see all the yellow around the abandoned wells of last month.  So the pool is on to guess how many earthquakes form here before they stop.  :)
