For decades, the number of earthquakes on our planet has remained unchanged. So there are no anomalies in such seismic activity.
ThisChannel 24 was told by a seismologist of the National Academy of Sciences of UkraineAlexander Kendera. The expert explained that modern seismologists have learned to record weaker earthquakes, so it may seem to people that there are more of them.
Seismologist about earthquake activation
Alexander Kendzera noted that there is no talk of natural anomalies yet. For many decades, the number of earthquakes on the planet has remained constant.
In a day, 1000 earthquakes of different power occurred in the world. However, there is nothing anomalous in this.
The number of seismic stations recording earthquakes is growing every year. The catalog is expanding. People believe that this means increased seismic activity. But they are wrong. It's just that now we have learned to record weaker earthquakes,” the seismologist explained.
Is it possible to predict when an earthquake will occur
In an interview, Alexander Kendzera also answered whether it is possible to predict the time of an earthquake. According to the expert, seismologists can determine how the earth will oscillate during an earthquake in a certain area.
However, no one determines the time of a natural disaster. Unfortunately, the definition of time will not help to avoid a natural disaster. At the same time, it is impossible to know for sure that a thousand small earthquakes or one powerful one will happen.
