The Possibility of Earthquake Forecasting uses a holistic approach to address the problems of earthquake forecasting, demonstrating the earthquake preparation process as a complex system that relies on the interaction of different geospheres. The purpose of the book is to widen the understanding of the earthquake preparation process and to inform the audience that not only seismometers are necessary for earthquake forecasting. It illustrates how applications of space technologies like remote sensing in situ measurements and GPS TEC provide rich information on the process and help to conclude that the earthquake is coming. The authors explain the physical nature of the observed pre-earthquake anomalies and how their approach is working by utilizing rich illustrations of precursory phenomena in different geospheres.

Despre autor
Dimitar Ouzounov received his Ph D in Geophysics in 1990 at the Schmidt Institute of Physics of the Earth, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow. Since October 2009 he has been an Associate Professor in Geophysics at the Center of Excellence in Earth Systems Modeling & Observations, Chapman University, Orange, CA. He became a guest investigator for two satellite missions to study electromagnetic signals from space in relation to earthquake and volcanoes – the French DEMETER (2004) and the Chines CSES1 (2017). He is the author of about two hundred papers and conference proceedings. He has also co-authored with Dr Pulinets two other books on pre-earthquake processes and on earthquake precursors in the atmosphere and ionosphere.Mai multe cărți electronice de la același autor (i) / Editor
