Summary edit

Description
Français : Extrait d'une carte produite en 2016 par l'USGS relative au tremblement de terre du 3 septembre 2016, de magnitude 5.8 - situé à près de 15km au NW de la petite ville de Pawnee (2000 hbts environ) en Oklahoma. The yellow star indicates the position of the epicenter (depth 5.4 km) from the earthquake, which is probably an earthquake induced by the shale gas (fracking and water reinjection). The map also shows a very rapid growth in land quakes observed in this region with chronologically blue dots, yellow and red (given that 2016 was not yet completed at the time of the completion of the map ; other earthquakes and perhaps replicas of this earthquake are expected by the USGS)
English: Extract from a map produced in 2016 by the USGS on the earthquake of September 3, 2016, magnitude 5.8 - located about 15 km NW of the town of Pawnee (2000 hbts approximately) in Oklahoma. The yellow star indicates the position of the epicenter (depth 5.4 km) from this earthquake, which is probably an earthquake induced by the shale gas industry (because of fracking and water reinjection). The map also shows a very rapid growth in land quakes observed in this region with chronologically blue dots, yellow and red (given that this map in sept 2016 was not yet completed ; other earthquakes and perhaps replicas of this earthquake are expected by the USGS)
