This is a list of earthquakes in 2016.Only earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above are included, unless they result in damage and/or casualties, or are notable for some other reason. Scientists have known for decades that wastewater disposal can increase underground pressure, which in turn can cause faults to slip and produce earthquakes.The U.S. Geological Survey noted in a report earlier this year that quakes around Dallas came to a virtual halt last year.
Mark Randell said the Saturday morning quake did cause cracks and damages to city buildings, some of which date to the early 1900s.Oklahoma Gov. Last year, scientists at SMU found that wastewater from oil and gas production and hydraulic fracturing "plausibly" set off the tremors, even though the nearest wastewater well is at least 8 miles away.In a scientific paper published in July 2016, they suggested that fluid pressure could have migrated to Dallas over tens of miles from high-volume disposal wells in Johnson and Tarrant counties.Hennings called that an "important hypothesis" and one that his team is investigating. Over the last 12 months, however, there have been 52. Dallas, TX has a very low earthquake risk, with a total of 91 earthquakes since 1931.

Fallin also tweeted that state officials want structural engineers to look at building safety in the wake of the quake, which the U.S. Geological Society happened at 7:02 a.m.By viewing our video content, you are accepting the terms of our database, which tracks earthquake intensities.The epicenter lay 3 miles below northwest Dallas, in the vicinity of Walnut Hill Lane between Luna Road and Interstate 35E, said seismologist Heather DeShon of Southern Methodist University. 2016-02-04 15:46:56 UTC 2.7 magnitude, 9 km depth Mansfield, Texas, United States 2.7 magnitude earthquake 2016-02-04 15:46:56 UTC at 15:46 February 04, 2016 UTC
