Scientists cannot warn people yet with an very accurate statement. Scientists are currently studying seismic activity. The best estimate would be to study seismic gaps, foreshocks, changes in rocks, and more. It might give them a possible location and time of the future earthquake. They hope to soon find ways to warn people, but for now they just have to try their best.

What warning systems are in place to warn people about earthquakes?
When the ground starts to move or the ocean has a quake that causes a tsunami.
What is a sisemograph?
a tool used by scientists to measure earthquakes by movement
What do scientists not know about earth?
They do Not know how to predict when and where Earthquakes will occur in adequate time to give people enough warning in order to save lives.
When did Chinese scientists begin keeping records of earthquakes?
200 BCE.
Which scientists study earthquakes and the earths core?
Seismologists are based on the study of earthquakes while Geologists study the earths core and quakes.
How can people stop earthquakes from happening?
You can warn people sooner before happens, but you can't stop them
Measure to control earthquake?
We can't control earthquakes. Scientists are trying to measure pressure in rock formations and so be able to possibly foretell and warn that an earthquake may be imminent.
What warning systems are in place to warn people about earthquakes?
When the ground starts to move or the ocean has a quake that causes a tsunami.
Why do scientists keep track of tornadoes?
They do this so that they can warn people to take shelter and save lives.
What do scientists use to measure earthquakes?
Scientists use seismographs.
How do earthquakes allow scientists study earth's interior?
The seismic waves that the earthquakes make travel slowly and scientists can track them
Who are seismologests?
scientists who study earthquakes
Did scientists detect the earthquake in the 2004 tsunami in time to warn people?
yes but there was not an early warning system so they could not tell the people.
Why do scientists follow tornadoes?
Scientists follow tornadoes to track where they are going and warn people in their paths. They also study tornadoes to learn more about them so they can be better predicted.
What is the study of earthquakes and what is the instrument used by scientists to record earthquakes data?
Seismograph.
Why do scientists compare earthquakes to rubber bands?
comparing rubber bands to earthquakes is not common almost all scientists do not compare those two.
Who predicts earthquakes?
Nobody. Currently we do not have any means of predicting earthquakes. Scientists who study earthquakes are called seismologists.
