Resumo

We present a rare case of induced seismicity from ground hydraulic stimulation linked to the drilling of water wells in the district of Jurupema, located in the interior of the state of Sao Paulo, Southern Brazil. We analyze the seismicity in this region with temporary seismic station deployments during 2016 and 2017 for size, distribution both in time and space, and its links to the water well drilling in and around the district.
