Foreshocks can occur days, weeks, or even months before a major earthquake, though they often happen minutes to hours prior. Their unpredictability makes it challenging to use them as reliable indicators of an impending larger quake. Not all major earthquakes are preceded by foreshocks, and when they do occur, not all foreshocks will lead to a larger event.
A major earthquake that has happened in the past is often referred to as a seismic event or a historic earthquake. The specific location where the earthquake occurred is known as the earthquake's epicenter.
The chances of earthquakes increase over time because stress builds up along tectonic plate boundaries, eventually leading to a release of energy in the form of an earthquake. As more time passes without a release of this stress, the likelihood of an earthquake occurring also increases.
An earthquake is caused by 'plates' in the ground shifting and moving. and after a major shift there might be a small aftershock witch is when the 'plates' in the ground move slightly as they are going back into place
By this you could mean 2 things:How long after the main earthquake do aftershocks occur?A: This depends on the magnitude of the main quake, and the faultline and how much tension there is between the tectonic plates.2. For how long after the main earthquake do aftershocks occur?A: This again depends on the magnitude of the main earthquake and the faultline.
The Tsunami was caused by the large earthquake that preceded it.
Tornadoes are usually preceded by heavy rain and often by hail.
yes.. decrease the population
No. Only words that are considered proper nouns (eg. someone's name) are preceded by a capital letter. The exception would be if you're referring to a specific, named earthquake.
The simplest thing is to cross brace ALL the corners of a building.
is a small earthquake that often precedes a major earthquake
stress builds up on a fault line over time and then releases all of the stress in an earthquake.
Is a small earthquake that often precedes a major earthquake.
Yes, major foreshocks preceded the earthquake on 11th March 2011 and major aftershocks succeeded the earthquake. There were hundreds of aftershocks of varying intensities, one even as great as 8 on the Richter scale causing a 10 meter tsunami.

A warm front
Yes. Tornadoes are often preceded by hot weather.
