Predicting Earthquakes in Indian Peninsula

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Can earthquakes be predicted? So far, the answer is no. Scientists are unlikely to be ever able to predict earthquakes with any amount of certainty, according to the United States Geological Survey An Innovative Model for Earthquake Prediction (IMEP) proposed in this book is a multidisciplinary field of research that combines astronomical techniques of Vedanga defined in Varaha Mihira's Brihat Samhita with the methodology of earthquake science based on Geophysics, and Astrophysics. The data of all the earthquakes occurred in Indian Peninsula shield over a period of 200 years are compiled on the principles of Vedanga and blended with the scientific data for the first time to meet on a common platform. During preparation of the manuscript, it is observed that the earthquakes occurred at regular intervals of about 11 years and mostly during bright fortnight due to extraordinary astronomical phenomena occurring in the planets and special movements of the heavenly bodies. It is, therefore, plausible to predict earthquakes in a specific locality within a specific time limit and even quantify them, utilising this model. The present model has been designed for India specific.
