Physical Earthquake Forecasting and Prediction: T-TECTO Omega System covers recent research on earthquake physics, such as the Cosserat continuum theory of faulting and earthquakes, global tectonic stress field, chaotic synchronizations in earthquakes, and slow solitary tectonic waves in the Earth's crust. Based on new advances in these fields, the operational earthquake forecasting system called T-TECTO Omega System has been developed.

Physical Earthquake Forecasting and Prediction: T-TECTO Omega System covers recent research on earthquake physics, such as the Cosserat continuum theory of faulting and earthquakes, global tectonic stress field, chaotic synchronizations in earthquakes, and slow solitary tectonic waves in the Earth's crust. Based on new advances in these fields, the operational earthquake forecasting system called T-TECTO Omega System has been developed. The author's previous book, The Omega-Theory: A New Physics of Earthquakes, explored an important breakthrough in earthquake physics, the Omega-Theory. This new book is dedicated to statistically evaluating that theory and the models based on it. The text is divided into five parts: statistical testing of the physical earthquake predictions, tectonic stress, time-synchronizations, tectonic couple-stress, and alert system and operational earthquake forecasting and prediction. The book's final part also covers some of the challenges of operational earthquake forecasting, its political and social implications, limits, and problems. This book is essential reading for those interested in the cutting-edge of earthquake forecasting and prediction.
Autorenporträt
Dr. Zalohar is a physicist and geologist working as an independent researcher, giving scientific and philosophical lectures at various institutions. He obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Ljubljana in 2008. Dr. Zalohar's main research fields are physics of faults and earthquakes, stratigraphy, and palaeontology. Among his most important achievements are a series of articles on the Cosserat mechanics of faulting for the Journal of Structural Geology and the development of the T-TECTO software for fault-slip data and earthquakes analysis, which is now recognized and used by structural geologists around the world. During numerous field trips observing tectonic structures in the Alps he and his colleagues made important paleontological discoveries, including identifying the oldest and only-known fossils of seahorses, pipehorses and pygmy pipehorses, new fossil sites with complete skeletons of Triassic reptilians, and fish and other biota from the Tethys ocean. His most important contribution to science is a discovery of a new physical theory of earthquakes that brings a redefinition and solution of the earthquake prediction problem.
