General theory of deterministic chaos. Nonlinear dynamics of the lithosphere and earthquake prediction. Modeling of dynamics of block and fault systems. Algorithms for intermediate-term earthquake prediction and their successful applications worldwide. Hierarchical models of crack formation and application of renormalisation group methods and theory of critical phenomena to the study of seismicity and earthquake prediction. Identification of earthquake-prone areas by pattern recognition approach. This approach was applied to numerous mountain countries, and was recently expanded to active platforms (Siberian, Central Russian, and Indian ones). Probabilistic estimation of seismic risk in terms of the damage to economy and population for the biggest cities of the world, earthquake insurance of rural dwellings in Georgia (FSU), Baikal-Amur railroad, Italy etc. Geophysical fluid dynamics: quantitative modeling of basin evolution. An alternative mechanism of sedimentary basin subsidence has been suggested and applied to North American and some Russian basins. Forward and inverse problems of seismology. Problems of uniqueness and stability were introduced along with the methods of reducing non-uniqueness by joint analysis of diverse data. New approaches to forward problems of surface wave propagation in laterally inhomogeneous media were found. New algorithms for inversion of surface wave data have been designed and applied to studies of lithospheric structure of different regions in Eurasia and of space-time seismic source features of recent strong earthquakes. Signal-to-noise enhancement for a single stations and arrays and sophisticated data processing. New algorithms were developed for signal detection based on autoregressive models of seismic wave fields. They were successfully applied to detection of weak earthquakes and nuclear explosions. Detection threshold is improved by factor 10 comparing to traditional methods used in the West. New algorithms of frequency-time analysis were developed and applied to high resolution studies of dispersion and polarisation of surface waves. Broadband seismological registration.

Wrong it's a question.
She is asking. Is it true that...?
No that it's a sure thing.
Your translation is wrong.

actually it is evidence. That word does not mean proof so you know...
It may have mislead you, but it's not misleading in and of itself. Can't blame others for your over excitability..
The OP controls no one elses posts, and the doggy was asking for it.
Tut tut think harder.

ok you beat me this time lol
my excuse
to many beers and not concentrating
will a public apology do?
Sooooory

I follow perfectly what it says. What it does not say is how they are predicting anything. All your post says is that they have picked locations to gather data sets of a certain size..
I am assuming that they actually say something at the link??
A cluster of "false alarm" TIP's in Japan lasted from the middle of 2001 to the end of 2010 gradually migrating from southwestern to the northern regions: It started with CI #64, expanded in 2006 to CIs #82 then #80; in 2007 #64 was called off and ##80-82 formed a new area of alarm, which has shrunk to a single #81 in January 2010. The alarm can be associated with the failures-to-predict the great 25/09/2003 M8.3, 15/11/2006 M8.3, and 13/01/2007 M8.2 earthquake, each of which were linked by the RTP chains of correlated quakes (Keilis-Borok et al., 2004; Shebalin et al., 2006) to the M8-MSc prediction areas, as well as to a series of earthquakes started with the 2002/06/28 M7.3 deep event (depth 566 km) near Priamurye-Northeastern China border in the back of and outside the alerted section of subduction zone, followed by twelve shallow magnitude 7.0 or larger earthquakes in the area alerted in 2002-2010, and ended with the 09/08/2009 M7.1 deep earthquake (depth 292 km) beneath Izu Islands. The Tokai silent earthquake initiated in 2001 and lasted for many years in the middle of this cluster of "false alarm" could be also physically related phenomenon.
Finally, the mega-thrust on 11 March 2011 completed the peculiar history of the "false alarm" in Japan on the 70th day after it was formally called off (see figure above). Its first aftershocks (white dots) spread along the entire patch of the M8-MSc prediction outline. The M7.3 earthquake on 9 March 2011 preceded the mega-shock by 51 hours and, according to Takeshi Kudo (personal communication), was a suspect foreshock of the expected by Japanese seismologists "M7.5 class Miyagi-Ken-Oki earthquake".
The premature termination of TIP in the 2011a Update of the Global Test of M8-MSc predictions happen to be due to the function Z1 (an inverse of the Zhurkov criterion, which is linear concentration of ruptures) anomaly threshold change from 2407 to 2440 bringing the voting scores from the required (and factual in the 2010b Update) 4:6/4:6 down to 4:6/4:5... A reasonable man would not even notice this change in one of the seven graphs involved in TIP diagnosis, while the prefixed in 1992 "black box" version of the M8 algorithm does.
It is hard to disagree with Prof. Keilis-Borok saying: "The alarm, its premature termination notwithstanding, could have been used for damage reduction."
The magnitude of the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake might be larger than 8.9 (preliminary Global CMT estimate is 9.1 waiting for longer period records). On the other hand, unlike the 26 December 2004 mega-thrust, the rupture in Sendai earthquake is surprisingly limited to about 400 km. This compactness may explain why its precursory patterns were not recognized by M8 aimed at M9.0+, but were diagnosed in advance the 2010 Chile mega-thrust with about 600 km of rupture. The current alarm for M8.5+ in Japan was not terminated in January, however, the M9.0+ and M8.5+ ranges are outside the scope of Global Test of the M8-MSc predictions and could not be considered as documented in advance the 11 March 2011 mega-thrust.
¿es cierto que va a ver un sismo el 20 de marzo del 2012 en chiapas?
hola soy una estudiante del estado de chiapas y últimamente an surgido rumores de que va a ver un sismo para el 20 de marzo del 2012, pero no nos aseguraron nada, por que otros lo manejan solo como que ese día va a ver un mega simulacro para escuelas y dependencias, por favor si alguien esta bien informado que me diga
agradecería que me respondieran antes de esa fecha

Is it true that there is going to be an earthquake on March 20, 2012 in Chiapas?
i am a student from the state of Chiapas and lately there have been rumors that we're going to have an earthquake on March 20, 2012, but nothing definite. others say that on that day there will be a mega drill/simulation for schools and departments, please, if anyone knows anything more about this[is better informed] , let me know
i would be grateful if i can get an answer before that date

Chiapas Governor 6 minutes before earthquake: “Everything is ready for the 7.9 Richter scale earthquake simulation.”

if there were rumors going round before the quake...
on the other hand she may have seen it on a conspiracy/predictions forum or heard it 2nd hand from somebody, maybe even a mexican ats member
remember we had a member post concerning the 188 day cycle and a prediction that actually came true
the debunkers rather than admit there may be something, have been posting troll threads including a big name here and also an asshat claiming one for oct 18, blatantly admitting in the title to having picked the date at random
don't let the debunkers brainwash you into thinking you're wrong/ignorant.
carry on GLontra S&F
... a big name here and also an asshat ...
On Thursday, October 18th at 10:18 a.m.*, millions of people throughout the state will participate in the 2012 Great California ShakeOut earthquake drill!
In 2011, more than 8.6 million Californians participated by practicing Drop, Cover, and Hold On and improving their overall preparedness.
2012 Registration is now open.
* You can hold your drill at any time within 2 weeks of October 18th.
