Ionosphere Linked to Earthquakes

Could ionospheric disturbances influence earthquakes? Researchers at Kyoto University explored how disturbances in the ionosphere exert electrostatic forces within Earth’s crust. They found that such forces potentially contribute to the initiation of large earthquakes under specific conditions. The coincidence of strong solar flare activity with the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake supports the hypothesis that ionosphericContinue reading “Ionosphere Linked to Earthquakes”
