China-led team achieves 83% success rate in earthquake prediction study

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

An international research team, led by scientists from China and Taiwan, has identified a new pre-earthquake phenomenon called "seismo-ripples." These ring-like disturbance patterns in seismic, magnetic, and ionospheric signals have demonstrated an 83% success rate in anticipating major earthquakes between 2022 and 2024. This discovery challenges the prevailing scientific view that earthquakes are largely unpredictable and offers a potential new avenue for their prediction. AI

    China-led team hits 83% success rate anticipating earthquakes in ‘seismo-ripples’ study

    A China-led international team has reported a new pre-earthquake phenomenon that has shown strong predictive potential for major earthquakes since 2022 with minimal failures. The anomalous seismic, magnetic and ionospheric resonance signals they observed – termed “seismo-ripples”…
