  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;It is now well established that earthquakes cause various hydrogeological responses at distances thousands of kilometers from the epicenter. What remains unexplained is the large amplitude and intensity of some responses. Following the 2004 Mw 9.1 Sumatra earthquake, groundwater 3,200&amp;nbsp;km from the epicenter erupted violently from a well and formed a water fountain reaching a height exceeding 60&amp;nbsp;m. We model the relevant processes by combining tidal analysis of groundwater level with numerical simulations using a two-dimensional finite-element model. We suggest that the eruption resulted from a combination of factors, including a rapid increase of crustal permeability and runaway CO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;exsolution and bubble nucleation induced by the passage of seismic waves. Our results may have implications for some engineering applications such as oil production and CO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;sequestration, and the eruption of hydrothermal features such as geysers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
