RODRIGUEZ-CASTILLO, Ramiro  e  RODRIGUEZ-VELAZQUEZ, Isaías. Social consequences of an induced disaster: subsidence. Bol. Soc. Geol. Mex [online]. 2006, vol.58, n.2, pp.265-269. ISSN 1405-3322.  https://doi.org/10.18268/bsgm2006v58n2a10.

The intense extraction regimes of aquifer systems can induce subsidence. Such differential movements cause fractures and faults in terrains affecting urban and private infrastructure. However, in Mexico there are no official paliative programs because subsidence is not considered a disaster. In this paper, subsidence and its environmental, social and economics consequences are analyzed and some mitigation actions for damage due to subsidence in urban areas are proposed.
