Earthquake Prediction

Science, 1935
Every once in a while, as recently, the claim that earthquakes can be predicted is brought to public attention in the press or in other ways. Some of the claimants are obviously not competent; others proceed along rational lines but without due regard to the difficulties involved. Some may be publicity seekers; others are undoubtedly sincere. ; © 1935

Earthquake Prediction

Scientific American, 1975
Vigorous efforts in earthquake prediction research have been under way in the United States only during the last 4 yr. A primary result of this research is the growing confidence that at least some earthquakes, shallow ones located on continents, including near offshore regions, are, in fact, predictable.

Earthquake prediction

Reviews of Geophysics, 1979
Earthquake prediction, hardly taken seriously as science in the United States before 1971, reached fledgling status in the period 1975 to 1978. By late 1974, most U.S. researchers in seismology were agreeing that earthquakes might be predictable on a scientific basis.

Earthquake prediction

Earthquake prediction is an area of interest to researchers around the world as well as anyone who has experienced a major earthquake. Major earthquakes often cause loss of lives and property, as well as injuries and destruction. Large investments of time and money are required to build communities back to near where they were before disasters such as ...

Earthquake prediction

Physics Today, 1974
Earthquake prediction entails the specification of the time, place and magnitude of an individual future event. All three of these parameters are poorly known and complicated functions of the relative motions of parts of the Earth's crust and mantle, the rate of strain accumulation in rocks and the strength of those rocks.
