A wide range of satellite methods is applied now in seismology. The first applications of
satellite data for earthquake exploration were initiated in the '70s, when active faults were …

Detecting various anomalies using optical satellite data prior to strong earthquakes is key to
understanding and forecasting earthquake activities because of its recognition of thermal …

This paper aims to investigate the water saturation effects on the thermal infrared radiation
(IRR) characteristics of rock materials during deformation and fracturing processes. Three …

Prior to large earthquakes the Earth sends out transient signals, sometimes strong, more
often subtle and fleeting. These signals may consist of local magnetic field variations …

Pre-earthquake signals have been widely reported, including perturbations in the
ionosphere. These precursory signals, though highly diverse, may be caused by just one …

Rocks are generally deformed and fractured upon various scales of strain rates.
Understanding the strain rate effects on the thermal infrared radiation (IR) characteristics of …

Potential earthquake precursors include, among others, electromagnetic fields, gas
emissions, Land Surface Temperature (LST), Sea Surface Temperature (SST), and Surface …

Many different non-seismic pre-earthquake signals have been reported but there is great
uncertainty about their origin, their correlation to each other and to the impending seismic …

Thermal anomalies prior to large and hazardous earthquakes have been extensively
detected by thermal infrared and microwave remote sensing techniques. However, few of …

Most destructive earthquakes nucleate at between 5–7 km and about 35–40 km depth.
Before earthquakes, rocks are subjected to increasing stress. Not every stress increase …
