Space detection of terrestrial anomalies: groundbreaking new technique reveals early signs of earthquakes

SciTechDaily

A new study highlights the potential of satellites in detecting early indicators of earthquakes through anomalies in the ground, atmosphere and ionosphere, suggesting the possibility of predicting earthquakes earlier than previously thought. Professor Mehdi Akhoondzadeh’s research, which analyzed satellite data from recent earthquakes near the Turkey-Syria border, identified significant anomalies in the precursors that occurred … Read more

Shaking up seismology: geometry as the breakthrough predictor of earthquakes

SciTechDaily

Researchers at Brown University have found that the geometry of fault networks, and not just the friction on fault lines, significantly influences the occurrence and intensity of earthquakes. Credit: SciTechDaily.com Researchers at Brown University found that the geometry of faults, including misalignments and complex structures within fault zones, plays a crucial role in determining the … Read more
