February 26, 2023, 6:30 p.m. – Public Information Service – TEH – The most frequent seismic activity occurs at the edges of the lithospheric plates, but it is worth waiting for strong shocks, first of all, where they have not been for a long time. In the case of earthquakes in southeastern Turkey and northern Syria, scientists’ predictions turned out to be correct.
Now, analysts from the Solar System Geometry Survey (SSGEOS) have named 12 more regions where there is a risk of destructive power quakes. So we are talking about the Kuril Islands of Russia, the southern part of Japan, several Indonesian islands, the coasts of Portugal and territories of North America, as well as Greece and Pakistan.
Earlier, Sergey Pulinets, chief researcher at the Institute for Space Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences, said that shortly before the earthquake, a strange glow appeared in the Turkish sky. It is due to the piezoelectric effect. When deforming a crystalline substance, electric fields appear in it. Read more in the article from the public press service.
