Earthquake precursors: Banished forever? [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1998 “When a rupture starts, how can it know where will it stop?” [Gregory Podyapolsky, 1973]Podyapolsky, a brilliant theorist, made this comment many years ago, upon perceiving that the earthquake prediction bandwagon in the Soviet Union was gaining speed. Twenty years later, we can observe just how far the bandwagon has gone.

Is It Possible to Predict Strong Earthquakes?
, 2014 The possibility of earthquake prediction is one of the key open questions in modern geophysics. We propose an approach based on the analysis of common short-term candidate precursors (2 weeks to 3 months prior to strong earthquake) with the subsequent ...

Radon earthquake precursor studies in Iceland [PDF]
, 1981 Discrete samples of geothermal water have been collected from a network of nine stations for analysis of radon (^(222)Rn) content. The sampling network consisted of wells that range in wellhead temperature from 48°C to 100°C, and the depths range from 38

Transform fault earthquakes in the North Atlantic: Source mechanisms and depth of faulting [PDF]
, 1988 The centroid depths and source mechanisms of 12 large earthquakes on transform faults of the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge were determined from an inversion of long-period body waveforms.

Long short-term memory networks for earthquake detection in Venezuelan regions [PDF]
, 2019 Reliable earthquake detection and location algorithms are necessary to properly catalog and analyze the continuously growing seismic records. This paper reports the results of applying Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to single-station three ...

A review on precursors of the 1999 Mw7.6 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2021 Earthquake prediction has been a long-term debatable problem in earthquake science. There were numerous studies of possible precursors after the Mw 7.6 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake of 20 September 1999.

New Possible Earthquake Precursor and Initial Area for Satellite Monitoring
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 We propose a new possible earthquake precursor, a coastal water jet originating from shallow water gas seeps and colored by sediments, lifted from increased gas seeps emissions, preceding some earthquakes with offshore epicenters along the Bulgarian ...

Monitoring Surface Deformation Before the M7.0 Kumamoto and M6.6 Chitose Earthquakes for Precursor [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesEarthquakes have resulted in significant damage; however, the extent of the ground observation coverage remains limited. Thus, a deeper understanding of seismic activity and its precursors holds promise in mitigating earthquake hazards.

Understanding Animal Detection of Precursor Earthquake Sounds
Animals, 2017 We use recent research to provide an explanation of how animals might detect earthquakes before they occur. While the intrinsic value of such warnings is immense, we show that the complexity of the process may result in inconsistent responses of animals ...

Brief communication "Further comments on the ionospheric precursor of the 1999 Hector Mine earthquake" [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013 Pulinets et al. (2007) document anomalous changes in the ionospheric total electron content (TEC) starting one week before the 16 October 1999 Hector Mine earthquake.
