Earthquake Forecast


Seismograph There are different ways of forecasting an earthquake, for example, by the subterranean waters in wells, by animals’ behavior, etc. We can foresee a disastrous event by analyzing changes of the chemical, gas and isotopic solution of the underground waters. Such sensitive devices like seismographs (Instruments used to detect and record seismic disturbances can be very useful in forecasting. Is it possible that we have some reliable and accurate forecasters of underground processes just at hand? But we are unaware about them and not using their power to help people? They seem to really exist.

The inhabitants of the most populated seismically active areas seem are likely to be the first who paid attention to disturbed behavior of many animals right before an earthquake or volcano eruptions. Nowadays, there are 70 species of animals known for reliable earthquake foretellers, which can be called “living seismographs”. Scientifically proved that animals can warn people with their anomalistic behavior about not only continental earthquakes, but also about sea ones of 4-5 points of magnitude in the Richter scale. The closer animals are to the epicenter, the earlier their abnormal behavior starts and the stronger it is.
