Which outcome commonly results from increased pore pressure?

A)Triggering of induced seismicity events
B)Formation of volcanic metamorphic rock
C)Enhanced stability of subsurface reservoirs
D)Promotion of ductile deformation in rocks

💡 Explanation

Induced seismicity can happen when pore pressure increases, because reduced effective stress causes Fault reactivation; therefore, small earthquake occurrences increase, rather than promoting rock stability or ductile formations.
