Ionospheric Earthquake Prediction
Earth's Newest Superhero: Ionospheric Earthquake Prediction, How it May Change the Lives of Those Effected
Abstract Making an earthquake forecast that is successful is still one of the biggest challenges before the scientists. Losses caused by earthquakes alone are greater than the loss caused by any other natural calamity. Many attempts have been made from ancient times to predict seismic events, but success has not been achieved yet. This is about to change with the study of the ionosphere to aid future predictions. This paper accumulates the recent advances in scientific understanding of the problem of seismo-ionospheric coupling and its effects.
Introduction The changes in levels of technology in geology and meteorology have been making it possible to predict weather conditions and other natural hazards. These natural hazards are usually a threat to events that occur naturally and have adverse effects on the environment and eventually affecting the people. (Parrot et al 66). The hazards can be geological or climatic and atmospheric hazards. Geological hazards are avalanches, volcanic eruption, sink holes, and earthquakes. The climatic and atmospheric hazards are droughts, blizzards, hailstorms, mael storms, cyclonic storms, heat waves, ice storms, geomagnetic storms, tornados, climate change and wild fires. In this paper, I will be looking at Ionospheric Earthquake Prediction and its advantages.
Earthquake Prediction Earthquake also called earth tremor, is a natural phenomenon that results when energy stored in the earth crust is suddenly released radiating seismic waves causing short lived episodes of ground shaking. They can last for a few seconds for small earthquakes to several minutes for largest earthquakes and produce several types of seismic waves that propagate through the Earth. Earthquakes are mostly caused by seismic waves from rapture of geological faults. Other
