The Koyna reservoir located close to the west coast of India is a classic example of reservoir triggered seismicity(RTS),where artificial water reservoir -triggered earthquakes have been occurring in a restricted area of 20×30 m~2 for the last 44 years.The world’s largest triggered earthquake of magnitude 6.3 occurred in Koyna on 10 December 1967,followed by several moderate to small earthquakes ever since.
