Unusual Surface Latent Heat Flux Variations and Their Critical Dynamics Revealed before Strong Earthquakes. [PDF]
Entropy (Basel), 2021 We focus on the possible thermal channel of the well-known Lithosphere–Atmosphere–Ionosphere Coupling (LAIC) mechanism to identify the behavior of thermal anomalies during and prior to strong seismic events.
