The very general time span within which another earthquake may occur, the possible severity of the casualties and damages, the location of areas of earthquake activity, and the degrees to which earthquake resistance must be included in building designs are examples of what may be predicted from old earthquakes.
What else can I help you with?
Can scientist predict large earthquakes?
Scientists are able to predict large earthquakes to a certain extent. With the use of certain statistical methods, many earthquakes are able to be predicted.
What was can be used to predict earthquakes?
witchcraft
Why is it important for scientist to develop ways to predict earthquakes?
It is important for scientists to develop ways to predict earthquakes. By it they can measure when the next one would be.
Do scientist have the power to control or predict earthquakes?
Scientists have no power to control earthquakes, nor to specifically predict them, but a logical area that the earthquakes would take place is along the plates of the earths crust. (Their shifting leads to earthquakes)
What gas can be used to predict earthquakes?
radon
Do scientists use satellite data to predict earthquakes?
Yes, through the use of global positioning systemsscientists use satellite data to predict earthquakes.
How many earthquakes can there be in a year?
Nobody knows how many earthquakes can happen in a year because you cannot predict earthquakes. :)
Why was the Samoan earthquake not predicted?
You can't predict earthquakes
Where will the earthquake be on the 20th of March?
We can't predict earthquakes.
Are scientist able to predict earthquakes?
no but scientists are working on it
Can you predict the part of the US mostly to experience strong earthquakes?
Yes. Earthquakes occur most often along fault lines. There are also many different devices (seismograph) that sense seismic waves and can predict earthquakes.
Why are earthquakes so difficult to predict?
Earthquakes are difficult to predict because they are caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, which is complex and constantly changing. Scientists have not yet found a reliable way to accurately forecast when and where earthquakes will occur.
