Era of Unpredictable Earthquakes to Predictable: A New Perspective to Predict Earthquakes to Mitigate Loss of Life and Destruction of Property in Japan, California and Mexico

Abstract

The single-most important purpose of this observational successful earthquake prediction research is to mitigate the loss of life and destruction of property by earthquakes. The basic innovative concept is entirely new and related to the tectonic plate activities of epicenter zones, may not familiar to many and may not be readily found in the existing literature. This manuscript is prepared based on 35 years of earthquake prediction study and over 10 years of observation of onshore observable precursors and the corresponding earthquakes. Past precursory phenomena for earthquakes have been observed, recorded, analyzed and can be used to predict future earthquakes for seismically risky regions, Japan, California and Mexico. It is significant to mention that there are more than 250 epicenter zones and equal number of precursor areas identified, centrifugal force due to the orbital motion of the earth is the major driving force of tectonic plates, each and every epicenter zone has its own creation of atmospheric weather anomalies, due to the change in position of the orbital motion of the earth. Though all form of weather anomalies are preceded by earthquakes, among them rainfall is the best earthquake precursor and rainfall location is best to identify the future earthquake direction, location frame, time frame and magnitude frame can be established 15 days before earthquakes occur. Based on this prediction method each and every individual earthquake can be predicted without false alarm in Japan, California and Mexico.
