\tableofcontents  \chapter{Context}  \section{Introduction}  Matched filter earthquake detection uses waveform cross-correlation between continuous seismic data and known earthquake recordings to identify additional events in a seismic catalogue. Correlation-based detection offers improved performance over traditional, amplitude-based techniques due to its ability to detect signals in noisy data and when multiple events are closely spaced in time. This significantly increases the number of events detected without increasing the rate of false detections. These advantages make matched filter detection ideal for monitoring microseismicity in areas of geothermal power generation, which are characterized by numerous noise sources and the possibility for dense clusters of small-magnitude, induced seismic events.
