If these can be triggered so far in advance of a quake, couldn't we bury instruments of some kind that also trigger under those conditions? That would be useful

If these can be triggered so far in advance of a quake, couldn't we bury instruments of some kind that also trigger under those conditions? That would be useful regardless what types of rocks are in the area.
It might not be perfect, but anything is better than the no warning we have now.
- FreeFull 12y agoI already saw research in using changes in electrical charge in the air to detect earthquakes ahead of time.
- th0ma5 12y agoI remember various ways of aurora detection but all of them depend more or less of precise wavelengths being observed and doing some noise filtering and amplification. It sounds here that various manifestations are possible so hopefully a method could be found, but it could be complex.
- semi-extrinsic 12y agoWe do have pretty good aurora forecasting though, through satellites upstream in the solar wind. There are even smartphone apps for that, I'll plug this one that a friend of mine was involved in: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.unis.Auroral_Forecast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.unis.Aurora...
